Then shail be read the word of JESUS from Luke xii., 16.

JESUS "Spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully :

And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?

And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.

And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and

be merry.

But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be which thou hast provided?

So is he that layeth up treasures for himself and is not rich towards God."

Almighty God, the fountain of holiness and felicity, who by thy word and Spirit dost conduct

all thy servants in the ways of peace and sanctity, inviting them by promises, and winning them by love, endearing them by necessities, and obliging them by the perpetual testimonies of thy lovingkindness, grant unto us so truly to repent us of our sins, so carefully to reform our errors, so diligently to watch over all our actions, so industriously to do all our duty, that we may never transgress thy holy laws willingly; but that it may be the work of our lives to obey thee, the joy of our souls to please thee, the satisfaction of all our hopes, and the perfection of our desires, to live with thee in the holiness of thy kingdom of grace and glory.

HYMN.

To God on high be thanks and praise,
Who deigns our bonds to sever;
His care our drooping souls upraise,
And harm shall reach us never.
On him we rest with faith assured,
Of all that live the mighty Lord,
For ever and for ever!

Then shall be read the following sentences:

O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness! fear before him all the earth.

Seek ye the Lord while he ye upon him while he is near.

Prayer to be said by the Minister.

Glory be to thee, O Lord, all glory be to thee, who didst create the light and command it to shine

upon the face of the deep. light which affects our senses,

How glorious is that the rays of the sun,

the flame of fire, the day divided from the night, the evening and the morning. How much more glorious is that light which shines in upon our minds by the obedience of Christ, by the examples of patriarchs, the revelations of prophets, the sweet solace of holy psalms, the instruction of wise proverbs, the profit and experience of faithful histories. Blessed be thy name for this light which no darkness ever overspreads: this sun which never goes down. Raise up our souls unto newness of life: make us perfect in every good work, to do thy will, working in us that which is well pleasing in thy sight. Take not thy spirit away from us, but grant to all thy servants who ask it of thee, that they may daily be renewed, and more plentifully enriched in the same. Make this day a refreshment after labour, an interval of recruit to our feeble and wearied bodies, a constant return of thy solemn worship, by prayers and praises in the public assemblies, and the house where thy honour dwelleth; and a figure and pledge of that better rest which still remaineth. O grant us to use these days of rest, and of public worship in this life, that we fail not of a part in thy eternal rest, and in the continual hymns of angels and blessed spirits in the life to come.

And this.

O God of our salvation, upon thee do wait the eyes of all, and thou givest them their meat in due season. Thou openest thy hand, and fillest all things living with plenteousness. Preserve among us all peace, friendship, and tenderness; and make us evermore to seek and rejoice in one another's good. Be favourable to all those good men and women, who bring forth the fruits of piety and charity crown all their holy labours with success: and the help they render to thy needy children, return into their bosoms, in-rich and heavenly graces; abundantly overpaying their earthly things with heavenly, their corruptible things with incorrupible, their temporal with eternal. Shed thy grace upon all those pious souls who use the world not as abusing it, by a discreet and moderate enjoyment of the most lawful pleasures, under the constant direction and restraint of religion and godly fear. Preserve peace and comfort in all private families: concord and affection between husbands and wives: defend and cherish all young children, provide for the instruction and good education of our youth; support those who are under the infirmities of age; comfort the feeble-minded: disabuse the deceived and seduced; and bring back all that have erred from thy way. Be a Father to the fatherless, a Denverer to the oppressed, a Physician to the diseased. Extend thy mercy to all criminals at the bar, to all under neglect, contempt, and want,
