We have followed too much the devices and desires of our own hearts.

Spare all those who confess their faults. Restore all those who are penitent, according to your promises declared to all people in Christ Jesus our Lord. And grant, O most merciful Father, for his sake, that we may now live a godly, righteous, and sober life, to the glory of your holy Name.

For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.</i></p><p> </p><p>Invitatory &
