Printed 349
1Et quid addam adhuc
2ut loquar ad Te?
3Tu enim nosti servum Tuum, Domine, Domine mi.
42 Sam. vii. 20.
5Quis ego sum, Domine, servus Tuus, et quæ domus mea,
6quoniam respexisti super canem mortuum similem mei,
72 Sam. ix. 8.
8Quoniam adhuc usque dilexisti me?[*Jo.* xiii. 1.]
9Quid retribuam Domino pro omnibus quæ tribuit mihi?
10Psal. cxvi. 12.
11Quam gratiarum actionem possumus Deo retribuere in
12omni gaudio quo gaudemus coram Eo?[1 *Thess.* iii. 9.]
13Qui dignatus es me, Domine, sancta hac die,
14et hora hac levare animam meam, et lau-
15dare Te, et offerre debitam Tibi gloriam,
16Ipse, Domine, ab anima mea suscipe spirituale
17hoc sacrificium: illudque recipiens ad Te in
18spirituale Tuum Altare, digneris vicem
19ejus mittere in me gratiam SS. Spiritus Tui.
20Visita me in bonitate Tua,
21Ignosce mihi peccatum omne, tam voluntarium
22quam involuntarium.
23Libera me ab æternis suppliciis, etiam et omnibus
24hujus mundi ærumnis.
25Transmuta cogitationes meas in pietatem,
26Sanctifica spiritum, animum et corpus meum,
27Et da mihi adorare et placere Tibi
28in pietate et sanctitate vitæ
29usque ad extremum vitæ terminum.

1And what can I say more
2to speak unto thee?
3For thou knowest thy servant, O Lord, my Lord.
4[2 Sam. 7:20]
5Who am I, O Lord, thy servant, and what is my house,
6that thou hast looked upon such a dead dog as I am,
7[2 Sam. 9:8]
8For that thou hast loved me hitherto?[John 13:1]
9What reward shall I give unto the Lord for all that he hath done unto me?
10[Ps. 116:12]
11What thanks can we render to God again for
12all the joy wherewith we joy before him?[1 Thess. 3:9]
13Who hast vouchsafed me, O Lord, this holy day,
14and this hour, to lift up my soul, and to
15praise thee, and to offer thee the glory that is thy due,
16Do thou thyself, O Lord, receive from my soul this
17spiritual sacrifice: and receiving it unto thee upon
18thy spiritual Altar, vouchsafe to send down
19upon me in return the grace of thy Most Holy Spirit.
20Visit me in thy goodness,
21Forgive me every sin, both voluntary
22and involuntary.
23Deliver me from everlasting torments, yea, and from all
24the miseries of this world.
25Transmute my thoughts into godliness,
26Sanctify my spirit, and my soul, and my body,
27And grant me to worship and to please thee
28in godliness and holiness of life
29even unto the utmost end of life.

2Ei autem, qui potens est omnia facere superabundanter
3quam petimus aut intelligimus, secundum virtutem
4quæ operatur in nobis,
5Ipsi gloria in Ecclesia et in Christo, in omnes genera-
6tiones sæcula sæculorum.[*Eph.* iii. 20, 21.]

8exsultationis laudabit os meum.[*Psal.* lxiii. 5.]

227. Sed libera nos a malo.
23Quia Tuum est regnum,
24potentia et gloria,
25in sæcula sæculorum.

2Now unto him that is able to do all things exceeding abundantly
3above that we ask or think, according to the power
4that worketh in us,
5Unto him be glory in the Church and in Christ, unto all genera-
6tions, world without end.[Eph. 3:20, 21]
7My soul shall be satisfied even as it were with marrow and fatness; and
8my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips.[Ps. 63:5]
9Our Father,
10Which art in heaven,
111. Hallowed be | { thy Name,
122. Come | thy Kingdom. }
133. Be done | thy Will,
14As in heaven
15so also in earth.
164. Give us this day | our daily bread,
175. And forgive us | our debts,

227. But deliver us from evil.
23For thine is the kingdom,
24the power and the glory,
25world without end.
