ee, and adorn the Doctrine of God our
Saviour in all things. Preserve the Tranquillity of those who at
present enjoy it: look down with compassion upon such as are persecuted
for Righteousness' sake, and plead Thy cause with the oppressors of Thy
people. Enlighten those who are in Darkness and Error; and give them
Repentance to the Acknowledgment of the Truth: that all the Ends of the
World may remember themselves, and be turned unto the Lord; and we all
may become one Flock, under the great Shepherd and Bishop of our Souls,
Jesus Christ, our only Mediator and Advocate. Amen."

The following MS. note is inserted in the handwriting of Mr. Finch, father
of the gentleman who bequeathed the collection:
"Mrs. Finch accompanied my Father (Rev. Dr. Finch, Rector of St.
Michael's, Cornhill) to the Cathedral, where he had a seat for himself
and his lady assigned him under the Dome, as Treasurer to the Society
for Promoting Christian Knowledge, the original patrons of the Charity
Schools. Mrs. F. was so fortunate as to obtain a seat in the choir, and
saw the procession from the choir gate. Myself and Robert saw the
cavalcade (which was extremely grand, and continued for the space of
more than three hours, both Houses of Parliament with their attendants
preceding their Majesties) from Mrs Townsend's house in Fleet
Street."--April 23, 1789.
