Chapter XXVII · PRAYER FOR THEM THAT OFFER FIRST-FRUITS.

Master, Lord our God, who biddest everyone according to their purpose to offer unto thee thine own of thine own, and bestowest upon them in return thine everlasting blessings, who didst favourably accept the offering of as much as she could of the widow; do thou now also accept the things offered by thy servant, name, and vouchsafe to lay up the same in thine eternal treasury, and grant unto him abundant possession of thy worldly blessings, together with all things that are serviceable unto him.

For blessed is thy name, and glorified is thy kingdom, of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, now and ever, and to ages of ages. Amen.
