cities of Ju-dah: that men may dwell there, and have it { in pos-ses-sion.

37 (f) The posterity also of his servants { shall in-herit it: and they that love his { Name shall dwell there-in.

PSALM lxxxviii. Domine Deus.

Tone 3. A. p. 4.

O LORD God of my salvation,* I have cried day and night be-fore thee : 0 let my prayer enter into thy presence, * incline thine ear ļ unto

my call-ing.

2 For

my soul is full of trou-ble : and my life draweth { nigh un-to hell. 3 I am counted as one of them that

go

down } into the pit : and I have been even as a { man that hath no strength.

Tone 3. A. p. 4.

7 Thou hast put away mine acquaintance far from me: and made me to be ab- { hor-red of them.

8 I am so { fast in pri-son : that I can-not get forth.

9 My sight faileth for {ve-ry trou-ble : Lord, I have called daily upon thee,* I have stretched } forth my hands unto thee.

10 Dost thou shew wonders a- } mong the dead : or shall the dead rise up a- gain, and praise thee?

11 Shall thy loving-kindness be shewed { in the grave: or thy faithfulness { in de-struc-tion ?

12 Shall thy wondrous works be known { in the dark : and thy righteousness in the land where all things { are for-got-ten ?

13 Unto thee have I } cried, o Lord: and early shall my prayer { come be-fore thee.

14 Lord, why abhorrest { thou my soul : and hidest thou thy { face from me ?

15 I am in misery,* and like unto him that is at the { point to die : even from my youth up* thy terrors have I suffered { with a trou-bled mind.

16 Thy wrathful displeasure { go-eth o-ver me: and the fear of thee { hath un-done me.

17 They came round about me į daily like water: and compassed me to-gether on eve-ry side.

18 My lovers and friends hast thou put a- } way from me :, and hid mine ac- } quaint-ance out of my sight.

EASTER DAY.

Morning Prayer.

Instead of the “Venite," these Anthems shall be sung.

Tone 1. B. p. 1.

CHRIST : our passover is į sacri-ficed for us : therefore { let us keep the feast;

Not with : the old leaven of į malice and wicked-ness: but with the unleavened { bread of sin-ceri-ty and truth.—(1. Cor. v. 7.)

Tone 1. A. (1.) p. 1.

CHRIST ; being raised from the dead { dieth no more : death hath no { more do-mi-nion o-ver him.

For : in that he died, he died unto sin once : but in that he { liveth, he liv-eth un-to God.

Tone 1, A. p. 1.

Like-wise : reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed { un-to sin : but alive un-to God, through Je-sus Christ our Lord.—(Rom. vi. 9.)

(f) Christ : is risen from the dead : and be- { come the first-fruits of them that slept.

For : since by { man came death: by man came also the { re-sur-rec-tion of the dead.

For : as in { Adam all die: even so in } Christ shall all be made a-live.—(1. Cor. xv. 20.)

Glo-ry : be to the Father,* and { to the Son : and { to the Ho-ly Ghost ;

As it : was in the beginning, * is now, and { ev-er shall be : world with- { out end. A-men.

[PROPER PSALMS.-ii, lvii, cxi.] PSALM ï. Quare fremuerunt gentes ?

Tone 6. (1.) p. 11.

Why do the heathen so furiously { rage to-gether ; and why do the people im- {agine a vain thing?

2 The kings of the earth stand up,* and the

rulers take { counsel to-ge-ther : against the Lord, and against { his A-noint-ed.

3 Let us break their { bonds a-sun-der : and cast a- { way their cords from us.

4 (f)He that dwelleth in heaven shall { laugh them to scorn: the Lord shall have them { in de-ri-sion.

5 Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath : and vex them in his { sore dis-plea-sure.

6 Yet have I set my King : upon my holy { hill of Si-on.

7 I will preach the law, whereof the Lord hath { said unto me : Thou art my Son, this day have { I be-got-ten thee.

8 Desire of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for { thine in-heri-tance : and the utmost parts of the earth { for thy pos-ses-sion.

9 Thou shalt bruise them with a { rod of i-ron : and break them in pieces like a { pot-ter's ves-sel.

10 Be wise now therefore, { Oye kings : be learned, ye that are judg-es of the earth.

11 Serve the { Lord in fear: and rejoice unto { him with re-ve-rence.

12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry,* and so ye perish from the { right way: if his wrath be kindled, (yea, but a little,)* blessed are all they that { put their trust in him.
