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

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

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
