well_o or_o to_o obtain_v by_o our_o good_a deed_n therefore_o in_o saint_n matthewes_n gospel_n the_o lord_n prayer_n seem_v to_o contain_v in_o it_o seven_o petition_n in_o three_o whereof_o eternal_a thing_n be_v desire_v and_o in_o the_o other_o four_o temporal_a thing_n but_o yet_o such_o as_o be_v necessary_a to_o the_o obtain_n of_o those_o heavenly_a thing_n for_o when_o as_o we_o say_v hallow_a be_v thy_o name_n thy_o kingdom_n come_v let_v thy_o will_v be_v do_v in_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o heaven_n all_o which_o petition_n some_o have_v very_o convenient_o understand_v that_o we_o shall_v keep_v they_o in_o our_o body_n and_o soul_n altogether_o world_n without_o end_n and_o that_o here_o be_v but_o as_o it_o be_v begin_v in_o we_o how_o great_o soever_o we_o shall_v profit_v in_o they_o they_o be_v but_o increase_v in_o we_o but_o that_o which_o we_o all_o hope_n for_o be_v perfect_v in_o another_o life_n we_o shall_v enjoy_v they_o for_o ever_o but_o that_o we_o say_v give_v we_o this_o day_n our_o daily_a bread_n and_o forgive_v we_o our_o trespass_n as_o we_o forgive_v they_o that_o trespass_n against_o we_o and_o lead_v we_o not_o into_o temptation_n but_o deliver_v we_o from_o evil_a who_o see_v not_o but_o that_o these_o do_v belong_v to_o the_o necessity_n of_o this_o present_a life_n therefore_o in_o that_o everlasting_a life_n where_o we_o hope_v we_o shall_v be_v for_o ever_o both_o the_o sanctification_n of_o the_o name_n of_o god_n and_o his_o kingdom_n and_o his_o will_n shall_v remain_v in_o our_o soul_n perfect_o and_o everlasting_o but_o it_o be_v therefore_o call_v our_o daily_a bread_n because_o that_o here_o it_o be_v necessary_a for_o we_o in_o as_o much_o as_o it_o be_v to_o be_v give_v both_o to_o our_o soul_n and_o body_n whether_o it_o be_v understand_v either_o corporal_o or_o spiritual_o or_o both_o way_n here_o also_o be_v that_o forgiveness_n which_o we_o desire_v where_o also_o be_v all_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n here_o also_o be_v those_o temptation_n which_o either_o allure_n or_o move_v we_o to_o sin_n here_o also_o be_v that_o evil_a from_o which_o we_o desire_v to_o be_v deliver_v but_o there_o that_o be_v in_o heaven_n there_o be_v none_o of_o all_o these_o the_o evangelist_n saint_n luke_n in_o the_o lord_n prayer_n make_v mention_v not_o of_o seven_o but_o of_o five_o petition_n neither_o do_v he_o for_o all_o that_o dissent_v from_o saint_n matthew_n but_o by_o his_o brevity_n he_o teach_v we_o how_o these_o seven_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v the_o name_n of_o god_n be_v sanctify_v in_o spirit_n and_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n shall_v come_v at_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o flesh_n therefore_o saint_n luke_n show_v that_o the_o three_o petition_n be_v but_o as_o it_o be_v a_o repetition_n of_o the_o two_o former_a by_o omit_v that_o will_v teach_v we_o thus_o much_o then_o he_o add_v the_o other_o of_o our_o daily_a bread_n and_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o of_o eschue_a temptation_n but_o that_o which_o saint_n matthew_n have_v last_v but_o deliver_v we_o from_o evil_a that_o he_o have_v not_o mention_v that_o we_o may_v understand_v that_o it_o belong_v to_o that_o other_o which_o saint_n matthew_n speak_v of_o concern_v temptation_n and_o therefore_o saint_n matthew_n say_v but_o deliver_v we_o he_o do_v not_o say_v and_o deliver_v we_o show_v it_o to_o be_v but_o one_o petition_n he_o do_v not_o say_v that_o i_o say_v but_o this_o that_o every_o one_o may_v know_v that_o then_o they_o be_v deliver_v from_o evil_a if_o they_o be_v not_o lead_v into_o temptation_n thus_o far_o augustine_n in_o this_o short_a sum_n of_o the_o lord_n prayer_n every_o true_a catholic_a may_v learn_v these_o lesson_n first_o to_o make_v all_o their_o prayer_n to_o god_n alone_o if_o they_o mind_n to_o be_v bless_v and_o not_o accurse_v as_o saint_n austen_n here_o plain_o teach_v and_o that_o this_o prayer_n contain_v in_o it_o seven_o petition_n three_o whereof_o be_v for_o heavenly_a thing_n and_o four_o for_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o present_a life_n and_o the_o first_o three_o by_o saint_n austin_n judgement_n we_o must_v begin_v to_o learn_v here_o in_o this_o life_n and_o that_o although_o we_o learn_v they_o never_o so_o well_o and_o pray_v for_o they_o all_o our_o life_n yet_o we_o shall_v never_o perfect_o learn_v they_o as_o long_o as_o we_o live_v here_o they_o shall_v be_v only_o perfect_o learn_v in_o heaven_n how_o far_o then_o shall_v those_o be_v from_o learning_n these_o lesson_n which_o all_o their_o life_n never_o know_v what_o they_o mean_v which_o say_v paternoster_n in_o latin_a in_o a_o tongue_n they_o understand_v not_o we_o may_v learn_v here_o also_o out_o of_o austen_n that_o all_o remission_n of_o sin_n be_v in_o this_o life_n and_o therefore_o that_o there_o be_v no_o remission_n of_o sin_n as_o the_o papist_n teach_v now_o in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v and_o therefore_o the_o pope_n pardon_n and_o purgatory_n be_v nothing_o worth_a every_o true_a catholic_a must_v learn_v here_o out_o of_o austen_n that_o all_o remission_n of_o his_o sin_n be_v to_o be_v have_v in_o this_o life_n and_o that_o after_o his_o death_n to_o give_v any_o thing_n whereby_o to_o hope_v to_o be_v relieve_v be_v in_o vain_a again_o here_o we_o may_v learn_v to_o reconcile_v matthew_n and_o luke_n and_o not_o to_o think_v that_o every_o thing_n that_o seem_v contrary_a at_o the_o first_o sight_n be_v contrary_a these_o two_o evangelist_n though_o they_o seem_v to_o disagree_v yet_o they_o
