the desire of every living thing, we thank thee that thou hast reserved unto us the appointed weeks of harvest, and caused our valleys to be covered with corn. Sustain and keep alive in us, we beseech thee, such a sense of thy bountiful goodness, that we forget not, in the pride of our heart, the hand from which every blessing flows. It is thy mercy, O God, that humbleth us in want. It is thy mercy that feedeth us with plenteousness. Protect and cover us, we pray thee, from the abuses of each; lest we be full, and deny thee, and say, Who is the Lord? or lest we be poor and steal, and take the name of our God in vain. More especially at this time dispose us to acknowledge, with all humility, thy good Providence, in supplying our wants at the moment of approaching necessity, in upholding our cause against the increased aggression of our enemies, and in continuing thy protection to our most gracious sovereign, the father of his people, and the dispenser of thy mercies. These praises and prayers we humbly offer at the throne of grace, through the merits and mediation of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.-Amen."

hearts, and to tell out our sorrows unto thee in prayer, and dost promise to listen with compassion to our humble supplications, give us grace so to approach thee, that we offend not in word or thought: put away from us every impatient feeling, silence every unworthy expression: let not our prayers assume the language of complaint, nor our sorrows the character of despair. Upon thee, O God, and upon the multitude of thy mercies, we repose our grief. To thee alone we look for that blessing for which our hearts bleed. Raise, we implore thee, our beloved sovereign from the bed of sickness and of affliction; soothe his parental cares; restore him to his family, and to his people. And of thy great mercy, O God! look down with pity and compassion on the accumulated sorrows of the royal family. Give them strength, and courage, and virtue, to meet with pious submission the grievous trial to which they are exposed: and, whether it shall seem fit to thine unerring wisdom, presently to remove from us this great calamity, or for a time to suspend it over us, teach both them and us, patiently to adore thy inscrutable Providence, and to bless thy holy name for ever and ever.
