I beleeve in one God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible, and invisible:

And in one Lord Iesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, Begotten of his Father before all Worlds, God God of God, Light of Light, Very God of very God, Begotten not made, Being of one substance with the Father, By whom all things were made: Who for vs men, and for our Salvation came downe from heaven, And was incarnate by the holy Ghost of the Virgine Mary, And was made man, And was crucified also for vs vnder Pontius Pilate. He suffered and was buried, And the third day he rose againe according to the Scriptures, And ascended into heaven, And sitteth on the right hand of the Father. And he shall come againe with glory to iudge both the quicke and the dead: Whose kingdom shall have no end.

And I believe in the holy Ghost, The Lord and giver of life, who proceedeth from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified, who spake by the prophets. And I believe one Catholick and Apostolick Church. J acknowledge one Baptism for the remission of Sins, And I looke for the Resurrection of the dead, And the life of the world to come.
Amen.
