prayer_n the_o evangelist_n say_v that_o when_o our_o saviour_n be_v baptize_v he_o pray_v but_o what_o he_o pray_v he_o express_v not_o nevertheless_o we_o may_v gather_v it_o out_o of_o other_o place_n of_o holy_a scripture_n wherein_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o he_o pray_v for_o himself_o for_o his_o church_n and_o for_o his_o enemy_n where_o if_o it_o be_v demand_v what_o need_v our_o

proceed_v from_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o heavy_a burden_n of_o sin_n himself_o not_o his_o own_o sin_n i_o say_v for_o he_o know_v no_o sin_n but_o of_o our_o sin_n which_o be_v lay_v upon_o he_o as_o also_o from_o the_o sense_n of_o that_o fearful_a wrath_n due_a to_o sin_n for_o strength_n and_o comfort_n against_o these_o he_o pray_v to_o his_o father_n as_o witness_v the_o apostle_n that_o in_o the_o day_n of_o his_o flesh_n 7._o he_o offer_v up_o prayer_n and_o supplication_n cry_v and_o tear_n to_o his_o father_n and_o be_v hear_v also_o in_o that_o which_o he_o fear_v which_o as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o gospel_n he_o do_v before_o his_o passion_n so_o now_o before_o his_o entry_n to_o the_o work_n of_o our_o redemption_n a_o work_n great_a than_o the_o work_n of_o our_o first_o creation_n for_o now_o he_o have_v to_o satisfy_v the_o justice_n of_o his_o father_n to_o work_v the_o confusion_n of_o satan_n and_o to_o effectuate_v the_o salvation_n of_o his_o brethren_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o entry_n of_o this_o great_a work_n he_o pray_v no_o doubt_n for_o a_o happy_a success_n thereof_o and_o as_o it_o be_v evident_a by_o the_o answer_n he_o receive_v from_o heaven_n he_o be_v hear_v in_o that_o which_o he_o pray_v for_o and_o in_o this_o also_o our_o saviour_n learn_v we_o by_o his_o example_n to_o sanctify_v all_o our_o action_n with_o prayer_n prayer_n when_o he_o be_v baptize_v he_o pray_v when_o he_o be_v tempt_v he_o pray_v when_o he_o break_v bread_n he_o pray_v when_o he_o wrought_v miracle_n he_o pray_v when_o he_o be_v trouble_v in_o the_o garden_n he_o pray_v when_o he_o suffer_v on_o the_o cross_n he_o pray_v as_o isaac_n marriage_n can_v not_o but_o prosper_v because_o it_o be_v begin_v with_o the_o prayer_n of_o abraham_n his_o
