FOR BISHOPS, AND THE PEOPLE COMMITTED TO THEM.
ALMIGHTY and everlasting God, who alone doest great marvels, send down upon thy servants the Bishops of thy Church [especially N. our Bishop], and all congregations committed unto them, the spirit of thy saving grace; and that they may truly please thee, pour upon them the continual dew of thy blessing; through, etc.
