t in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name, Thy kingdom
come, Thy will be done, in earth as it is in heaven. Give us this
day our daily bread; And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive
them that trespass against us; And lead us not into temptation, But
deliver us from evil. Amen.

_And this Collect_.

Almighty and everliving God, who makest us both to will and to
do those things that be good and acceptable unto thy divine
Majesty; We make our humble supplications unto thee for these thy
servants, upon whom (after the example of thy holy Apostles) we have
now laid our hands, to certify them (by this sign) of thy favour and
gracious goodness towards them. Let thy fatherly hand, we beseech
thee, ever be over them; let thy Holy Spirit ever be with them; and
so lead them in the knowledge and obedience of thy Word, that in
the end they may obtain everlasting life; through our Lord Jesus
Christ, who with thee and the Holy Ghost liveth and reigneth, ever
one God, world without end. _Amen._

O almighty Lord, and everlasting God, vouchsafe, we beseech thee,
to direct, sanctify and govern both our hearts and bodies, in the
ways of thy laws, and in the works of thy commandments; that through
thy most mighty protection, both here and ever, we may be preserved
in body and soul; through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. _Amen_.

_Then the Bishop shall bless them, saying thus_,

The Blessing of God Almighty, the Father, the Son, and the Holy
Ghost, be upon you, and remain with you, for ever. _Amen_.

_And there shall none be admitted to the holy Communion, until such
time as he be confirmed, or be ready and desirous to be confirmed_.

| AN ALTERNATIVE ORDER FOR THE

|MINISTRATION OF CONFIRMATION
|
|AS CANONICALLY SANCTIONED IN THE SCOTTISH CHURCH
|
|
| _The circumstances of this Church requiring on many occasions
| such modifications of the Order of Confirmation as may render
| it appropriate to candidates who had not godfathers and
| godmothers at their baptism, the Bishop may substitute for the
| Preface in the Order of Confirmation in the Book of Common
| Prayer a suitable address, and may substitute for the question
| Do ye here, etc., the three following questions_:
|
| Dost thou renounce the devil and all his works, the vain pomp
| and glory of the world, with all covetous desires of the same,
| and the carnal desires of the flesh, so that thou wilt not follow
| nor be led by them?
|
| _Answer_. I do.
