+
+Question. _What is your Name_?
+
+_Answer_. N. or M.
+
+Q. _Who gave you this Name_?
+
+_A_. My God-Fathers and God-Mothers in my Baptism; wherein I was
+made a Member of Christ, the Child of God, and an Inheritor of
+the Kingdom of Heaven.
+
+Q. _What did your God-Fathers and God-Mothers then for you_?
+
+_A_. They did Promise and Vow three Things in my Name: _First_, That
+I should renounce the Devil and all his Works, the Pomp and Vanity
+of this wicked World, and all the sinful Lusts of the Flesh:
+_Secondly_, That I should believe all the Articles of the Christian
+Faith: And, _Thirdly_, That I should keep God's holy Will and
+Commandments, and walk in the Same all the Days of my Life.
+
+Q. _Dost thou not think, that thou art bound to Believe, and to Do,
+as they have promised for thee_?
+
+_A_. Yes, verily; and by God's help so I will. And I heartily thank
+our Heavenly Father, that he hath called me to this State of
+Salvation, through Jesus Christ our Saviour. And I pray unto God
+to give me his Grace, that I may continue in the same unto my
+Life's End.
+
+Catechist. _Rehearse the Articles of thy Belief_.
+
+_A_. I believe in God the Father Almighty,  Maker of Heaven and
+Earth:
+
+And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord; who was conceived by
+the Holy Ghost; born of the Virgin _Mary_; suffered under Pontius
+Pilate; was crucified, dead, and buried: He descended into Hell,
+the third Day he rose again from the Dead, he ascended into Heaven,
+and sitteth at the Right Hand of God the Father Almighty; from
+thence he shall come to judge the Quick and the Dead.
+
+I believe in the Holy Ghost; the holy Catholic Church; the Communion
+of Saints; the Forgiveness of Sins; the Resurrection of the Body,
+and the Life everlasting. Amen.
+
+Q. _What dost thou chiefly learn in these Articles of thy Belief_?
+
+_A_. First, I learn to believe in God the Father, Who hath made me
+and all the World.
+
+Secondly, In God the Son, who hath redeemed me, and all Mankind.
+
+Thirdly, In God the Holy Ghost, who sanctifieth me, and all the
+Elect People of God.
+
+Q. _You said that your God-Fathers and God-Mothers did promise for
+you, that you should keep God's Commandments. Tell me how many
+there be_?
+
+_A_. Ten.
+
+Q. _Which be they_?
+
+_A_. The same which God spake in the twentieth Chapter of _Exodus_,
+saying, I am the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the Land of
+_Egypt_, out of the House of Bondage.
+
+I. Thou shalt have none other Gods but Me.
+
+II. Thou shalt not make to thyself any graven Image, nor the
+Likeness of any Thing, that is in Heaven above, or in the Earth
+beneath, or in the Water under the Earth. Thou shalt not bow down
+to them, nor worship them; for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God,
+and visit the Sins of the Fathers upon the Children unto the third
+and fourth Generation of them that hate me; and shew Mercy unto
+Thousands of them that love me, and keep my Commandments.
+
+III. Thou shalt not take the Name of the Lord thy God in vain; for
+the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his Name in vain.
+
+IV. Remember that thou keep holy the _Sabbath_ Day. Six Days shalt
+thou labour, and do all that thou hast to do; but the Seventh Day
+is the _Sabbath_ of the Lord thy God; in it thou shalt do no Manner
+of Work, thou, and thy Son, and thy Daughter, thy Man Servant, and
+thy Maid Servant, thy Cattle, and the Stranger that is within thy
+Gates: for in six Days the Lord made Heaven and Earth, the Sea, and
+all that in them is, and rested the Seventh Day: wherefore, the
+Lord blessed the Seventh Day, and hallowed it.
+
+V. Honour thy Father and thy Mother, that thy Days may be long in
+the Land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
+
+VI. Thou shalt do no Murder.
+
+VII. Thou shalt not commit Adultery.
+
+VIII. Thou shalt not Steal.
+
+IX. Thou shalt not bear false Witness against thy Neighbour.
+
+X. Thou shalt not covet thy Neighbour's House, thou shalt not covet
+thy Neighbour's Wife, nor his Servant, nor his Maid, nor his Ox,
+nor his Ass, nor any Thing that is his.
+
+Q. _What dost thou chiefly learn by these Commandments_?
+
+_A_. I learn two Things: My Duty towards God; and my Duty towards
+my Neighbour.
+
+Q. _What is thy Duty towards God_?
+
+_A_. My duty towards God, is to believe in him, to fear him, and
+to love him, with all my Heart, with all my Mind, with all my Soul,
+and with all my Strength; to Worship him, to give him Thanks, to
+put my whole Trust in him, to call upon him, to honour his holy
+Name and his Word; and to serve him truly all the Days of my Life.
+
+Q. _What is thy Duty towards thy Neighbour_?
+
+_A_. My Duty towards my Neighbour, is to love him as myself, and
+to do to all Men as I would they should do unto me; to love, honour,
+and succour my Father and Mother; to honour and obey the------, and
+all that are put in authority under------; to submit myself to all
+my Governors, Teachers, Spiritual Pastors, and Masters; to order
+myself lowly and reverently to all my Betters; to hurt no Body by
+Word or Deed; to be true and just in all my Dealings; to bear no
+Malice nor Hatred in my Heart; to keep my Hands from Picking and
+Stealing, and my Tongue from Evil-Speaking, Lying, and Slandering;
+to keep my Body in Temperance, Soberness, and Chastity; not to
+Covet nor Desire other Men's Goods, but to learn and labour truly
+to get mine own Living; and to do my Duty in that State of Life
+unto which it shall please God to call me.
+
+Catechist. _My good Child, know this, that thou art not able to do
+these Things of thyself, nor to walk in the Commandments of God,
+and to serve him, without his special Grace; which thou must learn
+at all Times to call for by diligent Prayer. Let me hear, therefore,
+if thou canst say the Lord's Prayer_?
+
+_A_. Our Father which art 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_.
+
+Q. _What desirest thou of God in this Prayer_?
+
+_A_. I desire my Lord God our heavenly Father, who is the Giver of
+all Goodness, to send his Grace unto me, and to all People, that
+we may worship him, serve him, and obey him, as we ought to do.
+And I pray unto God, that he will send us all Things that be
+needful both for our Souls and Bodies; and that he will be merciful
+unto us, and forgive us our Sins; and that it will please him to
+save and defend us in all Dangers, ghostly and bodily; and that he
+will keep us from all Sin and Wickedness, and from our ghostly
+Enemy, and from everlasting Death. And this I trust he will do of
+his Mercy and Goodness, through our Lord Jesus Christ And therefore
+I say, _Amen_: So be it.
+
+Q. _How many Sacraments hath Christ ordained in his Church_?
+
+_A_. Two only, as generally necessary to Salvation; that is to say,
+Baptism, and the Supper of the Lord.
+
+Q. _What meanest thou by this Word_ Sacrament?
+
+_A_. I mean an outward and visible Sign of an inward and spiritual
+Grace, given unto us, ordained by Christ himself, as a Means
+whereby we receive the same, and a Pledge to assure us thereof.
+
+Q. _How many Parts are there in a Sacrament_?
+
+_A_. Two: The outward visible Sign, and the inward spiritual Grace.
+
+Q. _What is the outward visible Sign, or Form in Baptism_?
+
+_A_. Water; wherein the Person is baptised, _In the Name of the
+Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost_.
+
+Q. _What is the inward and spiritual Grace_?
+
+_A_. A Death unto Sin, and a new Birth unto Righteousness: For
+being by Nature born in Sin, and the Children of Wrath, we are
+hereby made the Children of Grace.
+
+Q. _What is required of Persons to be baptised_?
+
+_A_. Repentance, whereby they forsake Sin; and Faith, whereby they
+stedfastly believe the Promises of God, made to them in that
+Sacrament.
+
+Q. _Why then are Infants baptised, when, by Reason of their tender
+Age, they cannot perform them_?
+
+_A_. Because they promise them both by their Sureties; which
+Promise, when they come to Age, themselves are bound to perform.
+
+Q. _Why was the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper ordained_?
+
+_A_. For the continual Remembrance of the Sacrifice of the Death
+of Christ, and of the Benefits which we receive thereby.
+
+Q. _What is the outward Part or Sign of the Lord's Supper_?
+
+_A_. Bread and Wine, which the Lord hath commanded to be received.
+
+Q. _What is the inward Part or Thing signified_?
+
+_A_. The Body and Blood of Christ, which are verily and indeed
+taken and received by the Faithful in the Lord's Supper.
+
+Q. _What are the Benefits whereof we are Partakers thereby_?
+
+_A_. The strengthening and refreshing of our Souls by the Body and
+Blood of Christ, as our Bodies are by the Bread and Wine.
+
+Q. _What is required of them who come to the Lord's Supper_?
+
+_A_. To examine themselves, whether they repent them truly of their
+former Sins, stedfastly purposing to lead a new Life; have a lively
+Faith in God's Mercy through Christ, with a thankful Remembrance of
+his Death and be in Charity with all Men.
+
+
+
+PRAYERS _used in the_ ACADEMY _of the_ PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL
+CHURCH, _in Philadelphia_.
+
+
+LET US PRAY.
+
+_Lord have Mercy upon us_.
+
+Our Father, which art 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.
+
+O Lord, our Heavenly Father, almighty and everlasting God, who hast
+safely brought us to the Beginning of this Day; defend us in the
+same with thy mighty Power, and grant that this Day we fall into no
+Sin, neither run into any Kind of Danger; but that all our Doings
+may be ordered by thy Governance, to do always what is righteous in
+thy Sight, through Jesus Christ our Lord. AMEN.
+
+_But at Evening Prayer, instead of the foregoing Collect, the
+following is to be used_.
+
+Lighten our Darkness, we beseech thee, O Lord, and by thy great
+Mercy defend us from all Perils and Dangers of this Night, for the
+Love of thy only Son our Saviour Jesus Christ. AMEN.
+
+O God, the Creator and Preserver of all Mankind, we humbly beseech
+thee for all Sorts and Conditions of Men; that thou wouldest be
+pleased to make thy Ways known unto them, thy saving Health unto
+all Nations. More especially we pray for the good Estate of the
+Catholic Church; that it may be so guided and governed by thy good
+Spirit, that all who profess and call themselves Christians may be
+led into the Way of Truth, and hold the Faith in Unity of Spirit,
+in the Bond of Peace, and in Righteousness of Life. Finally, we
+commend to thy fatherly Goodness all those who are any ways
+afflicted or distressed in Mind, Body, or Estate; that it may
+please thee to comfort and relieve them according to their several
+Necessities, giving them Patience under their Sufferings, and a
+happy Issue out of all their Afflictions: And this we beg for
+Jesus Christ his sake. AMEN.
+
+Almighty God, Father of all Mercies, we thine unworthy Servants do
+give thee most humble and hearty Thanks for all thy Goodness and
+loving Kindness to us, and to all Men. We bless thee for our
+Creation, Preservation, and all the Blessings of this Life; but
+above all for thine inestimable Love in the Redemption of the World
+by our Lord Jesus Christ; for the Means of Grace, and for the Hope
+of Glory. And we beseech thee, give us that due Sense of all thy
+Mercies, that our Hearts may be unfeignedly Thankful, and that we
+may shew forth thy Praise, not only with our Lips, but in our Lives,
+by giving up ourselves to thy Service, and by walking before thee
+in Holiness and Righteousness all our Days, through Jesus Christ
+our Lord; to whom, with thee and the Holy Ghost, be all Honour and
+Glory, World without End. AMEN.
+
+Almighty God, who hast given us Grace at this Time with one Accord
+to make our common Supplications unto thee, and dost promise that
+when two or three are gathered together in thy Name, thou wilt
+grant their Requests; fulfil now, O Lord, the Desires and Petitions
+of thy Servants, as may be most Expedient for them; granting us in
+this World Knowledge of thy Truth, and in the World to come Life
+everlasting. AMEN.
+
+The Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the Love of God, and the
+Fellowship of the Holy Ghost, be with us all evermore. AMEN.
+
+
+
+Graces and Hymns.
+
+
+GRACE before MEAT.
+
+The Eyes of all Things do look up and trust in thee, O Lord: Thou
+openest thy Hand liberally, and fillest every living Thing. Good
+Lord bless us, and all the Gifts which we receive from thee;
+through Jesus Christ, our Lord. AMEN.
+
+
+GRACE after MEAT.
+
+The God of all Glory and Power, who hath created, redeemed, and
+presently fed us, be blessed and praised, both now and for evermore.
+AMEN.

+
+_Song of the Angels at the Nativity of our blessed Saviour_,
+Luke ii, from verse 8, to verse 15.
+
+  While Shepherds watch'd their Flocks by Night,
+    All seated on the Ground,
+  The Angel of the Lord came down,
+    And Glory shone around.
+
+  "Fear not said he," for mighty Dread,
+    "Had seized their troubled Mind;
+  "Glad Tidings of great Joy I bring
+    "To you and all Mankind.
+
+  "To you, in David's Town this Day,
+    "Is born, of David's Line,
+  "The Saviour who is Christ the Lord,
+    "And this shall be the Sign:
+
+  "The heav'nly Babe you there shall find
+    "To human View display'd,
+  "All meanly wrapp'd in Swathing-bands,
+    "And in a Manger laid."
+
+  Thus spake the Seraph; and forthwith
+    Appear'd a shining Throng
+  Of Angels, praising God, and thus
+    Address'd their joyful Song:
+
+  "All Glory be to God on high,
+    "And to the Earth be Peace:
+  "Good-Will, henceforth, from Heav'n to Men,
+    "Begin and never cease."
+
+
+For EASTER-DAY.
+
+  Since Christ, our Passover, is slain
+    A Sacrifice for all:
+  Let all with thankful Hearts agree
+    To keep the Festival:
+
+  Not with the Leaven, as of old,
+    Of Sin and Malice fed;
+  But with unfeign'd Sincerity,
+    And Truth's unleaven'd Bread.
+
+  Christ being rais'd by Pow'r Divine,
+    And rescu'd from the Grave,
+  Shall die no more, Death shall on him
+    No more Dominion have.
+
+  For that he dy'd, 'twas for our Sins
+    He once vouchsaf'd to die:
+  But that he lives, he lives to God
+    For all Eternity.
+
+  So count yourselves as dead to Sin,
+    But graciously restor'd,
+  And made henceforth alive to God,
+    Through Jesus Christ our Lord.
+
+  To Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
+    The God whom we adore,
+  Be glory, as it was, is now,
+    And shall be evermore.

+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org.

+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations.  To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+
+Question. _What is your Name_?
+
+_Answer_. N. or M.
+
+Q. _Who gave you this Name_?
+
+_A_. My God-Fathers and God-Mothers in my Baptism; wherein I was
+made a Member of Christ, the Child of God, and an Inheritor of
+the Kingdom of Heaven.
+
+Q. _What did your God-Fathers and God-Mothers then for you_?
+
+_A_. They did Promise and Vow three Things in my Name: _First_, That
+I should renounce the Devil and all his Works, the Pomp and Vanity
+of this wicked World, and all the sinful Lusts of the Flesh:
+_Secondly_, That I should believe all the Articles of the Christian
+Faith: And, _Thirdly_, That I should keep God's holy Will and
+Commandments, and walk in the Same all the Days of my Life.
+
+Q. _Dost thou not think, that thou art bound to Believe, and to Do,
+as they have promised for thee_?
+
+_A_. Yes, verily; and by God's help so I will. And I heartily thank
+our Heavenly Father, that he hath called me to this State of
+Salvation, through Jesus Christ our Saviour. And I pray unto God
+to give me his Grace, that I may continue in the same unto my
+Life's End.
+
+Catechist. _Rehearse the Articles of thy Belief_.
+
+_A_. I believe in God the Father Almighty,  Maker of Heaven and
+Earth:
+
+And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord; who was conceived by
+the Holy Ghost; born of the Virgin _Mary_; suffered under Pontius
+Pilate; was crucified, dead, and buried: He descended into Hell,
+the third Day he rose again from the Dead, he ascended into Heaven,
+and sitteth at the Right Hand of God the Father Almighty; from
+thence he shall come to judge the Quick and the Dead.
+
+I believe in the Holy Ghost; the holy Catholic Church; the Communion
+of Saints; the Forgiveness of Sins; the Resurrection of the Body,
+and the Life everlasting. Amen.
+
+Q. _What dost thou chiefly learn in these Articles of thy Belief_?
+
+_A_. First, I learn to believe in God the Father, Who hath made me
+and all the World.
+
+Secondly, In God the Son, who hath redeemed me, and all Mankind.
+
+Thirdly, In God the Holy Ghost, who sanctifieth me, and all the
+Elect People of God.
+
+Q. _You said that your God-Fathers and God-Mothers did promise for
+you, that you should keep God's Commandments. Tell me how many
+there be_?
+
+_A_. Ten.
+
+Q. _Which be they_?
+
+_A_. The same which God spake in the twentieth Chapter of _Exodus_,
+saying, I am the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the Land of
+_Egypt_, out of the House of Bondage.
+
+I. Thou shalt have none other Gods but Me.
+
+II. Thou shalt not make to thyself any graven Image, nor the
+Likeness of any Thing, that is in Heaven above, or in the Earth
+beneath, or in the Water under the Earth. Thou shalt not bow down
+to them, nor worship them; for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God,
+and visit the Sins of the Fathers upon the Children unto the third
+and fourth Generation of them that hate me; and shew Mercy unto
+Thousands of them that love me, and keep my Commandments.
+
+III. Thou shalt not take the Name of the Lord thy God in vain; for
+the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his Name in vain.
+
+IV. Remember that thou keep holy the _Sabbath_ Day. Six Days shalt
+thou labour, and do all that thou hast to do; but the Seventh Day
+is the _Sabbath_ of the Lord thy God; in it thou shalt do no Manner
+of Work, thou, and thy Son, and thy Daughter, thy Man Servant, and
+thy Maid Servant, thy Cattle, and the Stranger that is within thy
+Gates: for in six Days the Lord made Heaven and Earth, the Sea, and
+all that in them is, and rested the Seventh Day: wherefore, the
+Lord blessed the Seventh Day, and hallowed it.
+
+V. Honour thy Father and thy Mother, that thy Days may be long in
+the Land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
+
+VI. Thou shalt do no Murder.
+
+VII. Thou shalt not commit Adultery.
+
+VIII. Thou shalt not Steal.
+
+IX. Thou shalt not bear false Witness against thy Neighbour.
+
+X. Thou shalt not covet thy Neighbour's House, thou shalt not covet
+thy Neighbour's Wife, nor his Servant, nor his Maid, nor his Ox,
+nor his Ass, nor any Thing that is his.
+
+Q. _What dost thou chiefly learn by these Commandments_?
+
+_A_. I learn two Things: My Duty towards God; and my Duty towards
+my Neighbour.
+
+Q. _What is thy Duty towards God_?
+
+_A_. My duty towards God, is to believe in him, to fear him, and
+to love him, with all my Heart, with all my Mind, with all my Soul,
+and with all my Strength; to Worship him, to give him Thanks, to
+put my whole Trust in him, to call upon him, to honour his holy
+Name and his Word; and to serve him truly all the Days of my Life.
+
+Q. _What is thy Duty towards thy Neighbour_?
+
+_A_. My Duty towards my Neighbour, is to love him as myself, and
+to do to all Men as I would they should do unto me; to love, honour,
+and succour my Father and Mother; to honour and obey the------, and
+all that are put in authority under------; to submit myself to all
+my Governors, Teachers, Spiritual Pastors, and Masters; to order
+myself lowly and reverently to all my Betters; to hurt no Body by
+Word or Deed; to be true and just in all my Dealings; to bear no
+Malice nor Hatred in my Heart; to keep my Hands from Picking and
+Stealing, and my Tongue from Evil-Speaking, Lying, and Slandering;
+to keep my Body in Temperance, Soberness, and Chastity; not to
+Covet nor Desire other Men's Goods, but to learn and labour truly
+to get mine own Living; and to do my Duty in that State of Life
+unto which it shall please God to call me.
+
+Catechist. _My good Child, know this, that thou art not able to do
+these Things of thyself, nor to walk in the Commandments of God,
+and to serve him, without his special Grace; which thou must learn
+at all Times to call for by diligent Prayer. Let me hear, therefore,
+if thou canst say the Lord's Prayer_?
+
+_A_. Our Father which art 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_.
+
+Q. _What desirest thou of God in this Prayer_?
+
+_A_. I desire my Lord God our heavenly Father, who is the Giver of
+all Goodness, to send his Grace unto me, and to all People, that
+we may worship him, serve him, and obey him, as we ought to do.
+And I pray unto God, that he will send us all Things that be
+needful both for our Souls and Bodies; and that he will be merciful
+unto us, and forgive us our Sins; and that it will please him to
+save and defend us in all Dangers, ghostly and bodily; and that he
+will keep us from all Sin and Wickedness, and from our ghostly
+Enemy, and from everlasting Death. And this I trust he will do of
+his Mercy and Goodness, through our Lord Jesus Christ And therefore
+I say, _Amen_: So be it.
+
+Q. _How many Sacraments hath Christ ordained in his Church_?
+
+_A_. Two only, as generally necessary to Salvation; that is to say,
+Baptism, and the Supper of the Lord.
+
+Q. _What meanest thou by this Word_ Sacrament?
+
+_A_. I mean an outward and visible Sign of an inward and spiritual
+Grace, given unto us, ordained by Christ himself, as a Means
+whereby we receive the same, and a Pledge to assure us thereof.
+
+Q. _How many Parts are there in a Sacrament_?
+
+_A_. Two: The outward visible Sign, and the inward spiritual Grace.
+
+Q. _What is the outward visible Sign, or Form in Baptism_?
+
+_A_. Water; wherein the Person is baptised, _In the Name of the
+Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost_.
+
+Q. _What is the inward and spiritual Grace_?
+
+_A_. A Death unto Sin, and a new Birth unto Righteousness: For
+being by Nature born in Sin, and the Children of Wrath, we are
+hereby made the Children of Grace.
+
+Q. _What is required of Persons to be baptised_?
+
+_A_. Repentance, whereby they forsake Sin; and Faith, whereby they
+stedfastly believe the Promises of God, made to them in that
+Sacrament.
+
+Q. _Why then are Infants baptised, when, by Reason of their tender
+Age, they cannot perform them_?
+
+_A_. Because they promise them both by their Sureties; which
+Promise, when they come to Age, themselves are bound to perform.
+
+Q. _Why was the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper ordained_?
+
+_A_. For the continual Remembrance of the Sacrifice of the Death
+of Christ, and of the Benefits which we receive thereby.
+
+Q. _What is the outward Part or Sign of the Lord's Supper_?
+
+_A_. Bread and Wine, which the Lord hath commanded to be received.
+
+Q. _What is the inward Part or Thing signified_?
+
+_A_. The Body and Blood of Christ, which are verily and indeed
+taken and received by the Faithful in the Lord's Supper.
+
+Q. _What are the Benefits whereof we are Partakers thereby_?
+
+_A_. The strengthening and refreshing of our Souls by the Body and
+Blood of Christ, as our Bodies are by the Bread and Wine.
+
+Q. _What is required of them who come to the Lord's Supper_?
+
+_A_. To examine themselves, whether they repent them truly of their
+former Sins, stedfastly purposing to lead a new Life; have a lively
+Faith in God's Mercy through Christ, with a thankful Remembrance of
+his Death and be in Charity with all Men.
+

+PRAYERS _used in the_ ACADEMY _of the_ PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL

+
+
+LET US PRAY.
+
+_Lord have Mercy upon us_.
+
+Our Father, which art 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.
+
+O Lord, our Heavenly Father, almighty and everlasting God, who hast
+safely brought us to the Beginning of this Day; defend us in the
+same with thy mighty Power, and grant that this Day we fall into no
+Sin, neither run into any Kind of Danger; but that all our Doings
+may be ordered by thy Governance, to do always what is righteous in
+thy Sight, through Jesus Christ our Lord. AMEN.
+
+_But at Evening Prayer, instead of the foregoing Collect, the
+following is to be used_.
+
+Lighten our Darkness, we beseech thee, O Lord, and by thy great
+Mercy defend us from all Perils and Dangers of this Night, for the
+Love of thy only Son our Saviour Jesus Christ. AMEN.
+
+O God, the Creator and Preserver of all Mankind, we humbly beseech
+thee for all Sorts and Conditions of Men; that thou wouldest be
+pleased to make thy Ways known unto them, thy saving Health unto
+all Nations. More especially we pray for the good Estate of the
+Catholic Church; that it may be so guided and governed by thy good
+Spirit, that all who profess and call themselves Christians may be
+led into the Way of Truth, and hold the Faith in Unity of Spirit,
+in the Bond of Peace, and in Righteousness of Life. Finally, we
+commend to thy fatherly Goodness all those who are any ways
+afflicted or distressed in Mind, Body, or Estate; that it may
+please thee to comfort and relieve them according to their several
+Necessities, giving them Patience under their Sufferings, and a
+happy Issue out of all their Afflictions: And this we beg for
+Jesus Christ his sake. AMEN.
+
+Almighty God, Father of all Mercies, we thine unworthy Servants do
+give thee most humble and hearty Thanks for all thy Goodness and
+loving Kindness to us, and to all Men. We bless thee for our
+Creation, Preservation, and all the Blessings of this Life; but
+above all for thine inestimable Love in the Redemption of the World
+by our Lord Jesus Christ; for the Means of Grace, and for the Hope
+of Glory. And we beseech thee, give us that due Sense of all thy
+Mercies, that our Hearts may be unfeignedly Thankful, and that we
+may shew forth thy Praise, not only with our Lips, but in our Lives,
+by giving up ourselves to thy Service, and by walking before thee
+in Holiness and Righteousness all our Days, through Jesus Christ
+our Lord; to whom, with thee and the Holy Ghost, be all Honour and
+Glory, World without End. AMEN.
+
+Almighty God, who hast given us Grace at this Time with one Accord
+to make our common Supplications unto thee, and dost promise that
+when two or three are gathered together in thy Name, thou wilt
+grant their Requests; fulfil now, O Lord, the Desires and Petitions
+of thy Servants, as may be most Expedient for them; granting us in
+this World Knowledge of thy Truth, and in the World to come Life
+everlasting. AMEN.
+
+The Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the Love of God, and the
+Fellowship of the Holy Ghost, be with us all evermore. AMEN.
+
+
+
+Graces and Hymns.
+
+
+GRACE before MEAT.
+
+The Eyes of all Things do look up and trust in thee, O Lord: Thou
+openest thy Hand liberally, and fillest every living Thing. Good
+Lord bless us, and all the Gifts which we receive from thee;
+through Jesus Christ, our Lord. AMEN.
+
+
+GRACE after MEAT.
+
+The God of all Glory and Power, who hath created, redeemed, and
+presently fed us, be blessed and praised, both now and for evermore.

+
+  "Fear not said he," for mighty Dread,
+    "Had seized their troubled Mind;
+  "Glad Tidings of great Joy I bring
+    "To you and all Mankind.
+
+  "To you, in David's Town this Day,
+    "Is born, of David's Line,
+  "The Saviour who is Christ the Lord,
+    "And this shall be the Sign:
+
+  "The heav'nly Babe you there shall find
+    "To human View display'd,
+  "All meanly wrapp'd in Swathing-bands,
+    "And in a Manger laid."
+
+  Thus spake the Seraph; and forthwith
+    Appear'd a shining Throng
+  Of Angels, praising God, and thus
+    Address'd their joyful Song:
+
+  "All Glory be to God on high,
+    "And to the Earth be Peace:
+  "Good-Will, henceforth, from Heav'n to Men,
+    "Begin and never cease."

+For EASTER-DAY.

+  Since Christ, our Passover, is slain
+    A Sacrifice for all:
+  Let all with thankful Hearts agree
+    To keep the Festival:
+
+  Not with the Leaven, as of old,
+    Of Sin and Malice fed;
+  But with unfeign'd Sincerity,
+    And Truth's unleaven'd Bread.
+
+  Christ being rais'd by Pow'r Divine,
+    And rescu'd from the Grave,
+  Shall die no more, Death shall on him
+    No more Dominion have.
+
+  For that he dy'd, 'twas for our Sins
+    He once vouchsaf'd to die:
+  But that he lives, he lives to God
+    For all Eternity.
+
+  So count yourselves as dead to Sin,
+    But graciously restor'd,
+  And made henceforth alive to God,
+    Through Jesus Christ our Lord.
+
+  To Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
+    The God whom we adore,
+  Be glory, as it was, is now,
+    And shall be evermore.

+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE

+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3.  LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from.  If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation.  The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund.  If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund.  If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4.  Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO

+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+

+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,

+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+https://pglaf.org/fundraising.  Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.

+
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations.  To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
