The Black Book of Conscience.

from this death, these miserable torments? Wo unto usǃ we have rewarded evil to our own souls, we are banished for ever from the presence of the Lord, and have utterly lost that inward peace of conscience the want whereof, addeth torments to torments, and maketh us in our miseries more exceedingly miserable. Now the Lord give every one of us this peace, this joy; the which, that we may all have, the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, keep our hearts and minds in the love and knowledge of Jesus Christ; an wash and purge our consciences from dead works, that we may serve the living God. Which that we may all do, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, be with you all.

Amen.


Take heed to yourselves in what conscience you here,
For conscience will dawn, and conscience will save.

FINIS.
