Who, with thine only-begotten Son, and the Holy Ghost, art one God,
one Lord, in Trinity of Persons and in Unity of Substance. For that
which we believe of thy glory, O Father, the same we believe of the
Son, and of the Holy Ghost, without any difference of inequality.
Therefore with Angels, etc.
¶ _Or this._
For the precious death and merits of thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord,
and for the sending to us of the Holy Ghost, the Comforter; who are
one with thee in thy Eternal Godhead.
Therefore with Angels, etc.
All Saints
¶ _Upon All Saints’ Day, and seven days after._
Who, in the multitude of thy Saints, hast compassed us about with so
great a cloud of witnesses that we, rejoicing in their fellowship,
may run with patience the race that is set before us, and, together
with them, may receive the crown of glory that fadeth not away.
Therefore with Angels and Archangels, and with all the company of
heaven, we laud and magnify thy glorious Name; evermore praising
thee, and saying,
¶ _Priest and People._
HOLY, HOLY, HOLY, Lord God of hosts, Heaven and earth are full of
thy glory: Glory be to thee, O Lord Most High. Amen.
¶ _When the Priest, standing before the Holy Table, hath so ordered
the Bread and Wine, that he may with the more readiness and decency
break the Bread before the People, and take the Cup into his hands,
he shall say the Prayer of Consecration, as followeth._
All glory be to thee, Almighty God, our heavenly Father, for that
thou, of thy tender mercy, didst give thine only Son Jesus Christ to
suffer death upon the Cross for our redemption; who made there (by
his one oblation of himself once offered) a full, perfect, and
sufficient sacrifice, oblation, and satisfaction, for the sins of
the whole world; and did institute, and in his holy Gospel command
us to continue, a perpetual memory of that his precious death and
sacrifice, until his coming again: For in the night in which he was
betrayed, (_a_) he took Bread; and when he had given thanks, (_b_)
he brake it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, Take, eat, (_c_)
this is my Body, which is given for you; Do this in remembrance of
me. Likewise, after supper, (_d_) he took the Cup; and when he had
given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of this; for
(_e_) this is my Blood of the New Testament, which is shed for you,
and for many, for the remission of sins; Do this, as oft as ye shall
drink it, in remembrance of me.
(_a_) _Here the Priest is to take the Paten into his hands._
(_b_) _And here to break the Bread._
(_c_) _And here to lay his hand upon all the Bread._
(_d_) _Here he is to take the Cup into his hands._
(_e_) _And here he is to lay his hand upon every vessel in which
there is any Wine to be consecrated._
_The Oblation._
