The prayer for the King ('O Lord, save the King'.) is without any order put between the foresaid petition and another general request only for audience.

('And mercifully hear us when we call upon thee').

The second Collect is intituled ('For Peace'.) and hath not a word in it of petition for peace, but only 'for defence in assaults of enemies', and that we 'may not fear their power'.

And the prefaces ('in knowledge of whom standeth', &c.

and 'whose service', &c.) have no more evident respect to a petition for peace than to any other.
