giving; most humbly beseeching
thee to grant, that by the merits and death of thy Son Jesus
Christ, and through faith in his blood, we and all thy whole
Church may obtain remission of our sins, and all other benefits
of his passion. And here we offer and present unto thee, O Lord,
ourselves, our souls and bodies, to be a reasonable, holy, and
lively sacrifice unto thee; humbly beseeching thee, that all we,
who are partakers of this holy Communion, may be fulfilled with
thy grace and heavenly benediction. And although we be unworthy,
through our manifold sins, to offer unto thee any sacrifice, yet
we beseech thee to accept this our bounden duty and service; not
weighing our merits, but pardoning our offences, through Jesus
Christ our Lord; by whom, and with whom, in the unity of the Holy
Ghost, all honour and glory be unto thee, O Father Almighty, world
without end. _Amen_.

_Or this_.

Almighty and everliving God, we most heartily thank thee, for
that thou dost vouchsafe to feed us, who have duly received these
holy mysteries, with the spiritual food of the most precious Body
and Blood of thy Son our Saviour Jesus Christ; and dost assure us
thereby of thy favour and goodness towards us; and that we are
very members incorporate in the mystical body of thy Son, which
is the blessed company of all faithful people; and are also heirs
through hope of thy everlasting kingdom, by the merits of the most
precious death and passion of thy dear Son. Aid we most humbly
beseech thee, O heavenly Father, so to assist us with thy grace,
that we may continue in that holy fellowship, and do all such good
works as thou hast prepared for us to walk in; through Jesus
Christ our Lord, to whom, with thee and the Holy Ghost, be all
honour and glory, world without end. _Amen_.

| _Both the post-communion prayers_ O Lord and heavenly Father,
| _and_ Almighty and everliving God, _maybe said in succession_
| _at the same service_.

_Then shall be said or sung_,

Glory be to God on high, and in earth peace, good will towards
men. We praise thee, we bless thee, we worship thee, we glorify
thee, we give thanks to thee for thy great glory, O Lord God,
heavenly King, God the Father Almighty. O Lord, the only-begotten
Son, Jesu Christ; O Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father,
that takest away the sins of the world, have mercy upon us. Thou
that takest away the sins of the world, have mercy upon us. Thou
that takest away the sins of the world
