Thou hast shewed us wonders on the Deep, that we might see how powerfull & gracious a God thou art; how able & ready to help those who trust in thee.– Thou hast given us strength & fed us & hast shewn how both Winds & Seas obey thy command, that we may learn [* An insertion appears on page 3 of the prayer and reads, "Receive us this Night into thy almighty protection." ]
