that_o a_o just_a and_o pious_a mention_n of_o it_o viz._n in_o the_o collect_n of_o the_o first_o sunday_n o_o lord_n which_o for_o our_o sake_n do_v fast_v forty_o day_n and_o forty_o night_n give_v we_o grace_n to_o use_v such_o abstinence_n that_o our_o flesh_n be_v subdue_v to_o the_o spirit_n etc._n etc._n where_o we_o doubt_v not_o but_o all_o church_n in_o the_o world_n will_v both_o consent_v to_o this_o prayer_n and_o praise_v the_o modest_a humility_n of_o christ_n handmaid_n this_o church_n of_o england_n except_o only_o some_o of_o she_o own_o child_n for_o 1._o she_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o pray_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v give_v her_o grace_n to_o use_v such_o fast_n as_o he_o have_v do_v but_o thankful_o acknowledge_v what_o he_o have_v do_v for_o she_o viz._n fast_v forty_o day_n and_o forty_o night_n she_o pray_v that_o she_o may_v use_v such_o abstinence_n call_v her_o own_o rather_o abstinence_n than_o fast_n that_o our_o flesh_n be_v subdue_v to_o the_o spirit_n we_o may_v ever_o obey_v his_o godly_a motion_n not_o that_o she_o may_v be_v glorious_a in_o a_o miracle_n of_o fast_v but_o humble_v in_o a_o exercise_n of_o mortify_a that_o she_o may_v obey_v his_o godly_a motion_n not_o emulate_v the_o divine_a power_n of_o his_o miracle_n tell_v we_o out_o we_o pray_v you_o whether_o our_o church_n pray_v thus_o and_o thus_o far_o only_a for_o imitation_n of_o christ_n in_o some_o abstinence_n according_a to_o our_o poor_a measure_n do_v offend_v you_o and_o if_o not_o this_o where_o in_o the_o common-prayer-book_n be_v there_o ought_v of_o that_o which_o you_o accuse_v but_o again_o why_o we_o pray_v you_o because_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a for_o we_o to_o imitate_v christ_n miraculous_a eat_v nothing_o at_o all_o through_o all_o the_o time_n of_o forty_o day_n therefore_o christian_n may_v not_o what_o you_o can_v deny_v to_o be_v possible_a use_v some_o special_a abstinence_n through_o forty_o day_n for_o the_o mortify_n of_o those_o sin_n for_o which_o christ_n suffer_v hunger_n and_o thirst_n and_o afterward_o crucfixion_n and_o death_n lest_o that_o by_o any_o mean_n when_o we_o have_v know_v all_o this_o do_v for_o we_o ourselves_o shall_v become_v castaways_a may_v not_o some_o pious_a charitable_a physician_n go_v about_o according_a to_o his_o skill_n which_o god_n have_v give_v he_o and_o without_o take_v any_o thing_n use_v the_o mean_n of_o heal_v the_o poor_a sick_a and_o lame_a in_o imitation_n of_o christ_n great_a pity_n who_o go_v about_o heal_v all_o manner_n of_o disease_n because_o he_o can_v cure_v miraculous_o infallible_o and_o universal_o as_o christ_n do_v may_v not_o some_o man_n that_o have_v but_o ability_n after_o the_o example_n of_o our_o saviour_n compassion_n pity_v a_o multitude_n that_o abide_v three_o day_n have_v nothing_o to_o eat_v and_o feed_v they_o because_o he_o can_v miraculous_o multiply_v loaf_n may_v we_o not_o be_v bid_v to_o be_v holy_a and_o perfect_a as_o our_o lord_n be_v holy_a and_o perfect_a though_o no_o miracle_n can_v lift_v we_o up_o to_o equal_a or_o come_v near_o his_o holiness_n or_o perfection_n what_o a_o lame_a exception_n therefore_o have_v you_o give_v against_o the_o church_n excellent_a prayer_n but_o if_o the_o church_n moreover_o in_o this_o prayer_n and_o in_o this_o fast_a and_o in_o some_o lowly_a degree_n of_o petition_v imitation_n of_o her_o saviour_n have_v but_o imitate_v the_o piety_n and_o follow_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o ancient_a father_n of_o the_o church_n and_o be_v a_o
