Then  the  person  or  persons  rising,  the  Minister  shall  proceed :

Let  us  give  thanks.
We  yield  Thee  hearty  thanks,  most  merciful  Father,
that  it  hath  pleased  Thee,  through  the  mystery  of
Thy  holy  Baptism,  to  deliver  thia  person  from  the  pow-
er of  darkness,  and  to  translate  him  into  the  king-
dom of  Thy  dear  Son,  in  whom  we  have  redemption
tlirough  His  blood,  even  the  forgiveness  of  sins.  And
we  humbly  beseech  Thee  to  grant  that  Ae,  being  dead
unto  sin,  and  living  unto  righteousness,  and  being
buried  with  Christ  in  His  death,  may  crucify  the  old
man,  and  utterly  abolish  the  whole  body  of  sin;  and
that  as  he  18  made  partaker  of  the  death  of  Thy  Son,
^  may  also  be  made  partaker  of  His  resurrection ;  so
that  finally,  with  the  residue  of  Thy  holy  Church,
fe  may  be  an  i/nheritor  of  Thine  everlasting  km%v\OTft.\
throiiflrb  Jeaus  Christ  our  Lord.     Amen.

Our  Father  who  art  in  heaven,  Hallowe  I  be  Thj

bread.  And  forgive  us  our  debts,  as  we  forgive  oui
debtors.  And  lead  us  not  into  temptation.  But  de-
liver us  from  evil.  For  Thine  is  the  kingdom,  ad
the  power,  and  the  glory,  for  ever.     Amen.

And  now  may  the  God  of  all  grace,  who  hath  callod
us  unto  His  eternal  glory  by  Christ  Jesus,  after  that
