_Presbyter_. 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. _People_. Lord, have mercy upon us, and incline our hearts to keep this law. _Presbyter_. Honour thy father and thy mother; that thy days may be long in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee. _People_. Lord, have mercy upon us, and incline our hearts to keep this law. _Presbyter_. Thou shalt do no murder. _People_. Lord, have mercy upon us, and incline our hearts to keep this law. _Presbyter_. Thou shalt not commit adultery. _People_. Lord, have mercy upon us, and incline our hearts to keep this law. _Presbyter_. Thou shalt not steal. _People_. Lord, have mercy upon us, and incline our hearts to keep this law. _Presbyter_. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour. _People_. Lord, have mercy upon us, and incline our hearts to keep this law. _Presbyter_. 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 anything that is his. _People_. Lord, have mercy upon us, and write all these thy laws in our hearts, we beseech thee. | _Or he may rehearse, instead of the Ten Commandments, the Summary | of the Law as followeth_: | | Our Lord Jesus Christ said: Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is | one Lord: and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, | and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy | strength: This is the first commandment. And the second is like, | namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: there is | none other commandment greater than these. | | On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets. | | _People_. Lord, have mercy upon us, and write these thy laws in | our hearts, we beseech thee. _Or else instead of the Ten Commandments or the Summary of the Law, may be sung or said on week-days, not being Great Festivals, as followeth_: Lord, have mercy upon us. _Christ, have mercy upon us_. Lord, have mercy upon us. _Then the Presbyter shall say_, The Lord be with you. _Answer_. And with thy spirit. _Presbyter_. Let us pray.
