from_o the_o lord_n that_o in_o this_o and_o all_o other_o thing_n i_o may_v be_v find_v faithful_a if_o as_o often_o as_o god_n people_n meet_v together_o to_o worship_n god_n public_o and_o especial_o upon_o the_o lord_n day_n this_o prayer_n also_o may_v be_v offer_v up_o to_o god_n be_v a_o sacrifice_n and_o incense_n which_o our_o high_a priest_n have_v consecrate_v to_o god_n and_o his_o father_n and_o to_o our_o god_n and_o our_o father_n i_o shall_v think_v it_o may_v be_v a_o good_a supplement_n of_o the_o defect_n and_o some_o emendation_n of_o the_o error_n in_o our_o prayer_n especial_o in_o such_o day_n of_o division_n as_o we_o be_v wherein_o good_a man_n be_v split_v into_o so_o many_o several_a party_n and_o opinion_n in_o matter_n of_o church_n and_o state_n that_o whilst_o some_o holy_a man_n in_o their_o heart_n say_v amen_o to_o some_o prayer_n put_v up_o in_o their_o name_n by_o the_o minister_n other_o as_o holy_a as_o they_o in_o their_o heart_n say_v god_n forbid_v or_o that_o be_v far_o from_o we_o this_o be_v a_o public_a prayer_n and_o no_o private_a christian_n but_o aught_o to_o say_v amen_o unto_o it_o however_o we_o be_v divide_v in_o more_o particular_a request_n we_o ought_v all_o to_o concentre_v and_o agree_v in_o these_o general_a neessary_a thing_n herein_o pray_v for_o forasmuch_o therefore_o as_o when_o we_o come_v together_o in_o the_o church_n to_o pray_v there_o be_v too_o too_o often_o division_n among_o we_o though_o we_o be_v together_o in_o one_o place_n yet_o not_o with_o one_o heart_n and_o because_o the_o promise_n be_v especial_o to_o two_o or_o three_o that_o agree_v together_o to_o ask_v any_o thing_n and_o to_o pray_v with_o divide_a heart_n this_o be_v in_o a_o sense_n not_o to_o pray_v this_o be_v not_o to_o seek_v the_o lord_n in_o due_a order_n to_o reform_v in_o some_o measure_n at_o least_o these_o abuse_n in_o prayer_n i_o shall_v recommend_v to_o all_o the_o church_n of_o

for_o i_o have_v receive_v of_o the_o lord_n that_o which_o i_o deliver_v unto_o you_o how_o that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n the_o same_o time_n when_o he_o be_v by_o one_o of_o his_o disciple_n in_o

these_o thing_n so_o why_o then_o do_v you_o not_o justify_v prescribe_v and_o impose_v liturgy_n or_o form_n of_o prayer_n answ_n i_o shall_v not_o so_o far_o launch_v forth_o into_o that_o
