bless, we beseech thee, thy faithful servant, and our dread Sovereign LORD KING WILLIAM, with the richest blessings of thy grace. Establish him in the throne of his kingdom by thy mighty aid and protection; visit him as thou didst visit Moses in the bush, Joshua in the battle, Gideon in the field, and Samuel in the temple. Let the dew of thine abundant mercies fall upon his head, and give him the blessing of David and Solomon. Be unto him an helmet of salvation against the face of his enemies, and a strong tower of defence in the time of adversity. Let his reign be prosperous, and his days many. Let peace, and love, and holiness; let justice, and truth, and all Christian virtues, flourish in his time. Let his people serve him with honour and obedience. And let him so duly serve thee here on earth, that he may hereafter everlastingly reign with thee in heaven, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
