half title
Questions to be expoun∣ded to sicke persons, whilst they haue the vse of reason, and power to speak, to the end that if any be not so well disposed to dye, hee may be better infor∣med and prepared: and the questions be these, according to Anselme the Reuerend Bi∣shop.
Also in another old Booke I find this written.
Euery Christian, whether se∣cular or regular, is thus to be examined and informed in his sicknesse, touching his saluation.
Certaine Prayers vsed by our forefathers in the darkest times of Poperie: in the time of a mans sicknesse, some to bee made for the sicke, and some by the sicke person: gathered out of the same Ancient Bookes.
When the sicke person feeles his strength to faile, then let him commend his soule to God in this prayer.
After, if his weakenesse grow so, that he lose the vse of his speech, let some of the by-standers say these Prayers following, o∣uer him, or more if he l•ue so long.
And when the sicke mans strength begins to faile, and the soule is ready to depart, then let the soule be commended to God by one of the by stan∣ders, on this manner.
