Acts i. 1-15: Ps. xlvii.

O God, the King of glory, who through
the Resurrection and Ascension of our Lord
Jesus Christ, hast opened the kingdom of
heaven to all believers; leave me not an
orphan, in my weary mortal state, but send
me the Holy Ghost, the Comforter; who
shall guide me always in the way of truth
and peace, and bring me in the end to those
mansions of rest in which Christ now dwells
and reigns: to whom, with Thee and the
Holy Ghost, be honor and glory, world with-
out end. Amen.

O King of glory, Lord of hosts, who hast
ascended up in triumph above the heavens;
leave me not comfortless, but send upon me
the promise of the Father, even the Spirit of
truth.

Glory be to Thee, ascended Saviour.

When Thou hadst made glad the hearts
of Thy disciples with the promise of the
Holy Ghost, when Thou hadst confirmed
their souls with Thy blessing of peace, Thou
wast received up into glory, O Christ, our
Saviour: for Thou art the Son of God, the
Saviour of the world.

Glory be to Thee, ascended Saviour.
