Deus misereatur. Ps. lxvii.

GOD be merciful unto us and bless us, and show us the light of his countenance, and be merciful unto us.

That thy way may be known upon earth, thy saving health among all nations.

Let the people praise thee, O GOD; yea, let all the people praise thee.

O let the nations rejoice and be glad; for thou shalt judge the folk righteously, and govern the nations upon earth. Let the people praise thee, O GOD; yea, let all the people

praise thee.

Then shall the earth bring forth her increase; and GOD, even our own GOD, shall give us his blessing.

GOD shall bless us; and all the ends of the world shall fear him.

¶ Or this.

Benedic Anima mea. Ps. ciii. PRAISE the LORD, O my soul; and all that is within me, praise his holy name.

Praise the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits; Who forgiveth all thy sin, and healeth all thine infirmities; Who saveth thy life from destruction, and crowneth thee with mercy and loving kindness.

O praise the LORD, ye Angels

of his, ye that excel in strength; ye that fulfil his commandment, and hearken unto the voice of his word.

O praise the LORD, all ye his hosts; ye servants of his that do his pleasure.

O speak good of the LORD, all ye works of his, in all places of his dominion. Praise thou the LORD, O my soul. ¶ Then shall be said the Apostles' Creed, by the Minister and the People, standing: And any Churches may omit the words, He descended into hell, or may, instead of them, use the words, He went into the place of departed spirits, which are considered as words of the same meaning in the Creed.
