Benedictus. S. Luke 1. 68.

Leffed be the Lord God of Ifrael: for he hath vifited and redeemed his people;

And hath raised up a mighty falvation for us: in the houfe of his fervant David;

As he fpake by the mouth of his holy prophets : which have been fince the world began;

That we should be faved from our enemies: and from the hands of all that hate us;

To perform the mercy promised to our forefathers: and to remember his holy covenant;

To perform the oath which he fware to our forefather Abraham; that he would give us;

That we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies: might serve him without fear

To give knowledge of falvation unto his people: for the remiffion of their fins,

Through the tender mercy of our God: whereby the day-fpring from on high hath vifited us;

To give light to them that fit in darkness, and in the shadow of death: and to guide our feet into the way of peace.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son and to the Holy Ghoft; [Hallelujah :]

What is man, that thou art mindful of him: and the fon of man, that thou vifiteft him?

Thou madeft him little lower than the angels: to crown him with glory and worship.
