Here Calvary stands over against Sinai. The sacrifice of Christ on the cross, whereby He "redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us", which you are about to represent to the Divine Majesty, will inspire you with confidence in the utterance of your petitions for mercy and grace after each of these Commandments.

Then shall follow one of these two Collects for the Queen, the Priest standing as before, and saying:

Let us pray.

Almighty God, whose kingdom is everlasting, and power infinite; have mercy upon the whole Church; and so rule the heart of Thy chosen servant Victoria, our Queen and Governor, that she (knowing whose minister she is) may above all things seek Thy honour and glory: and that

we, and all her subjects (duly considering whose authority she hath), may faithfully serve, honour, and humbly obey her, in Thee, and for Thee, according to Thy blessed Word and ordinance; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who with Thee and the Holy Ghost liveth and reigneth, ever one God, world without end. Amen.

Or,

Almighty and everlasting God, we are taught by Thy holy Word that the hearts of Kings are in Thy rule and governance, and that Thou dost dispose and turn them as it seemeth best to Thy godly wisdom: We humbly beseech Thee so to dispose and govern the heart of Victoria Thy servant, our Queen and Governor, that, in all her thoughts, words, and works, she may ever seek Thy honour and glory, and study to preserve Thy people committed to her charge,

in wealth, peace, and godliness : Grant this, O merciful Father, for Thy dear Son's sake, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Then shall be said the Collect of the Day. And immediately after the Collect, the Priest shall read the Epistle, saying, The Epistle [or, The portion of Scripture appointed for the Epistle] is written in the Chapter of beginning at the

Verse. And the Epistle ended, he shall say, Here endeth the Epistle. Then shall he read the Gospel (the people all standing up), saying, The holy Gospel is written in the Chapter of - beginning at the Verse. And the Gospel ended, shall be sung or said the Creed following, the people still standing, as before.

When the title of the Gospel is announced, say:

Glory be to Thee, O Lord.

When the Gospel is ended, say :—

Thanks be to Thee, O Lord, for Thy holy Gospel.1

1 Both these forms have prevailed from remote an

I believe in one God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, And of all things visible and invisible:

And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, Begotten of His Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, Very God of Very God, Begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father, By whom all things were made: Who for us men, and for our salvation came down from heaven, And was incarnate by the Holy Ghost of the Virgin Mary, And was made man, And was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate. He suffered and was buried, And the third day He rose again according to the Scriptures, And ascended into heaven, And sitteth on the right hand of the

tiquity in different Churches. The former is ordered in the First Book of King Edward VI, and is still audibly used throughout the greater part of England. The Iv Conc. Tolet. c. ii, orders the latter.
