the_o name_n of_o god_n hereupon_o it_o be_v that_o all_o the_o prayer_n record_v in_o the_o scripture_n which_o the_o man_n of_o god_n upon_o ●o_o many_o several_a occasion_n have_v offer_v up_o unto_o he_o be_v comprise_v in_o and_o may_v be_v reduce_v to_o this_o form_n of_o prayer_n although_o they_o do_v not_o use_v the_o very_a syllable_n and_o frame_n of_o word_n here_o set_v down_o by_o which_o also_o may_v be_v gather_v both_o that_o this_o be_v a_o most_o absolute_a form_n and_o ●●le_a of_o prayer_n and_o that_o the_o 13._o right_a use_n of_o it_o be_v to_o conceyve_v and_o frame_v all_o our_o prayer_n according_a to_o this_o rule_n and_o not_o to_o be_v bind_v to_o use_v this_o number_n of_o word_n as_o many_o now_o a_o day_n in_o their_o ignorance_n and_o superstition_n do_v imagine_v if_o it_o be_v object_v that_o christ_n 2_o say_v when_o you_o pray_v say_v our_o father_n etc._n etc._n and_o therefore_o that_o we_o ought_v in_o prayer_n to_o repeat_v these_o word_n i_o answer_v first_o that_o the_o scripture_n show_v his_o meaning_n be_v not_o at_o all_o to_o bind_v we_o to_o the_o use_n of_o these_o syllable_n but_o that_o in_o prayer_n and_o thanks_o give_v we_o shall_v follow_v this_o direction_n and_o pattern_n which_o he_o give_v so_o we_o read_v in_o 9_o matthew_n that_o christ_n say_v after_o this_o manner_n pray_v you_o and_o not_o as_o man_n now_o will_v habeit_v say_v over_o these_o word_n 2._o second_o see_v this_o be_v a_o absolute_a form_n of_o prayer_n wherein_o be_v no_o want_n or_o vain_a repetition_n if_o christ_n meaning_n be_v to_o bind_v we_o to_o the_o use_n of_o these_o word_n why_o then_o shall_v we_o use_v any_o other_o why_o shall_v we_o not_o allway_o use_v these_o and_o these_o only_a yea_o what_o else_o be_v it_o but_o vain_a bawl_a and_o intolerable_a presumption_n to_o put_v other_o prayer_n in_o stead_n of_o this_o which_o be_v so_o absolute_a and_o perfect_a 3._o three_o it_o be_v to_o be_v mind_v that_o this_o form_n of_o prayer_n be_v record_v in_o 4._o two_o place_n of_o the_o scripture_n there_o neither_o be_v all_o the_o same_o word_n nor_o the_o same_o number_n of_o word_n mention_v in_o both_o place_n now_o then_o according_a to_o which_o of_o these_o two_o must_v we_o say_v it_o if_o according_a to_o luke_n his_o record_v of_o it_o then_o shall_v we_o offend_v against_o that_o of_o matthew_n and_o contray_o if_o we_o 〈◊〉_d t●ed_v to_o the_o number_n and_o order_n of_o the_o word_n as_o they_o be_v set_v down_o 4._o as_o god_n in_o give_v the_o moral_a law_n albeit_o he_o do_v full_o and_o short_o ●eclare_v his_o will_n in_o those_o 21._o ten_o commandment_n yet_o do_v not_o dynd_v the_o prophet_n and_o priest_n in_o their_o ministry_n to_o use_v those_o very_a word_n but_o as_o occasion_v require_v according_a unto_o they_o to_o show_v the_o people_n what_o then_o ought_v to_o do_v or_o leave_v undo_v so_o christ_n also_o give_v this_o foune_n of_o prayer_n a●beit_n therein_o he_o have_v full_o and_o short_o teach_v we_o all_o thing_n needful_a for_o prayer_n yet_o have_v not_o bind_v we_o in_o call_v upon_o god_n to_o use_v these_o word_n but_o in_o all_o thing_n according_a to_o this_o rule_n to_o make_v our_o request_n unto_o god_n with_o give_v of_o thanks_o 5._o it_o be_v without_o question_n that_o the_o apostle_n unto_o who_o this_o rule_n first_o be_v give_v be_v careful_a to_o keep_v it_o according_a to_o the_o true_a meaning_n of_o christ_n but_o they_o neither_o tie_v 20._o themselves_o to_o the_o seword_n but_o always_o pray_v as_o they_o have_v several_a occasion_n according_a to_o this_o rule_n neither_o when_o they_o write_v unto_o 20._o other_o concern_v prayer_n do_v they_o ever_o teach_v they_o to_o say_v over_o the_o lord_n prayer_n which_o doubtless_o they_o will_v have_v do_v if_o they_o have_v so_o take_v the_o will_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v but_o they_o teach_v and_o exhort_v they_o still_o according_a to_o their_o necessity_n and_o occasion_n in_o all_o thing_n to_o show_v their_o request_n unto_o god_n in_o all_o manner_n prayer_n and_o supplication_n in_o the_o spirit_n with_o give_v of_o thanks_o and_o hereunto_o to_o watch_v with_o all_o perseverance_n because_o this_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n jesus_n 6._o if_o the_o apostle_n have_v be_v bind_v or_o may_v have_v tie_v themselves_o to_o these_o or_o any_o other_o set_v form_n of_o word_n than_o have_v they_o not_o give_v a_o sufficient_a reason_n who_o in_o this_o respect_n with_o other_o it_o be_v not_o meet_v they_o shall_v attend_v unto_o the_o deacon_n office_n because_o they_o will_v 4._o give_v themselves_o as_o to_o the_o ministration_n of_o the_o word_n so_o also_o unto_o prayer_n for_o it_o have_v be_v easy_a for_o they_o either_o to_o have_v say_v by_o rote_n or_o to_o have_v red_a o●t_n of_o a_o book_n this_o or_o any_o other_o set_v form_n of_o prayer_n 7._o they_o which_o think_v christ_n have_v tie_v we_o to_o say_v these_o word_n and_o that_o such_o say_n of_o the_o word_n be_v true_a prayer_n must_v reconcile_v herewith_o the_o apostle_n speech_n when_o he_o 6._o say_v we_o know_v not_o what_o to_o pray_v as_o we_o ought_v but_o the_o spirit_n itself_o make_v request_n for_o we_o with_o groan_n that_o can_v not_o be_v express_v these_o man_n it_o seem_v will_v answer_v yes_o we_o know_v what_o to_o pray_v to_o wit_n the_o lord_n prayer_n which_o contain_v whatsoever_o we_o need_v to_o ask_v and_o what_o then_o need_v the_o spirit_n to_o teach_v we_o what_o to_o pray_v as_o we_o ought_v 8._o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o prayer_n in_o a_o stra●nge_a tongue_n say_v 16._o thus_o when_o thou_o bless_v how_o shall_v he_o that_o occupy_v the_o room_n of_o

over_o of_o these_o or_o of_o any_o friend_n word_n be_v true_a prayer_n then_o may_v a_o man_n have_v his_o prayer_n by_o rote_n or_o carry_v they_o in_o his_o pocket_n or_o ●●y_v they_o at_o the_o
