Thou that by holy baptism hast granted forgiveness of sins unto thy servant, and bestowed upon him a life of regeneration; do thou thyself, O Master Lord, be pleased that the light of thy countenance may evermore shine in his heart, Keep the escutcheon of his faith undefamed by enemies: preserve for him the garment of incorruption, which he hath put on, undefiled and unstained: preserve unbroken in him the spiritual seal by thy grace; and be gracious unto him and unto us, according to the plenitude of thy compassions.

For blessed and glorified is thy most honourable and majestic name, of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, now and ever, and to ages of ages. Amen.
