prayer_n 1._o if_o i_o be_v a_o minister_n i_o shall_v think_v myself_o most_o in_o my_o office_n read_v of_o prayer_n and_o dispense_n the_o sacrament_n and_o it_o be_v ill_o do_v to_o put_v one_o

because_o according_a as_o the_o church_n be_v settle_v no_o man_n may_v make_v a_o prayer_n in_o public_a of_o his_o own_o head_n 3._o it_o be_v not_o the_o original_a common-prayer-book_n why_o

people_n they_o be_v tie_v as_o much_o to_o his_o word_n as_o in_o say_v almighty_a and_o most_o merciful_a father_n be_v it_o then_o unlawful_a in_o the_o minister_n but_o not_o unlawful_a in_o the_o

it_o therefore_o reasonable_a to_o banish_v all_o use_n of_o the_o compass_n set_a form_n be_v a_o pair_n of_o compass_n 6._o god_n have_v give_v gift_n unto_o men._n general_a text_n prove_v

of_o prayer_n his_o gift_n be_v to_o pray_v long_o that_o i_o see_v but_o do_v he_o pray_v better_o 7._o we_o take_v care_n what_o we_o speak_v to_o man_n but_o to_o god_n we_o may_v say_v any_o

the_o english_a priest_n will_v do_v that_o in_o english_a which_o the_o romish_a do_v in_o latin_a keep_v the_o people_n in_o ignorance_n but_o some_o of_o the_o people_n out_o do_v they_o at_o their_o own_o game_n 10._o prayer_n shall_v be_v short_a without_o give_v god_n almighty_a reason_n why_o he_o shall_v grant_v this_o or_o that_o he_o know_v best_a what_o be_v good_a for_o we_o if_o your_o boy_n shall_v ask_v you_o a_o suit_n of_o clothes_n and_o give_v you_o reason_n otherwise_o he_o can_v wait_v upon_o you_o he_o can_v go_v abroad_o but_o he_o will_v discredit_v you_o will_v you_o endure_v it_o you_o know_v it_o better_o than_o he_o let_v he_o ask_v a_o suit_n of_o clothes_n 11._o if_o a_o servant_n that_o have_v be_v feed_v with_o good_a beef_n go_v into_o that_o part_n of_o england_n where_o salmon_n be_v plenty_n at_o first_o he_o be_v please_v with_o his_o salmon_n and_o despise_v his_o beef_n but_o after_o he_o have_v be_v there_o a_o while_n he_o grow_v weary_a of_o his_o salmon_n and_o wish_n for_o his_o good_a beef_n again_o we_o have_v a_o while_n be_v much_o take_v with_o this_o pray_n by_o the_o spirit_n but_o in_o time_n we_o may_v grow_v weary_a of_o it_o and_o wish_v for_o our_o common-prayer_n 12._o it_o be_v hope_v we_o may_v be_v cure_v of_o our_o extemporary_a prayer_n the_o same_o way_n the_o grocer_n boy_n be_v cure_v of_o his_o eat_a

mean_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o such_o a_o place_n in_o sense_n he_o can_v mean_v no_o more_o than_o this_o that_o be_v i_o by_o study_v of_o the_o place_n by_o compare_v one_o place_n with_o

ghost_n say_v thus_o or_o this_o be_v the_o mean_v of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n so_o the_o judge_n speak_v of_o the_o king_n proclamation_n this_o be_v the_o intention_n of_o the_o king_n not_o that_o the_o king_n have_v declare_v his_o intention_n any_o other_o way_n to_o the_o judge_n but_o the_o judge_n examine_v the_o content_n of_o the_o proclamation_n gather_v by_o the_o purport_n of_o

5._o preach_v by_o the_o spirit_n as_o they_o call_v it_o be_v most_o esteem_v by_o the_o common-people_n because_o they_o can_v abide_v art_n or_o learning_n which_o they_o have_v not_o be_v breed_v up_o in_o just_o as_o in_o the_o business_n of_o fence_v if_o one_o country_n fellow_n among_o the_o rest_n have_v be_v at_o the_o school_n the_o rest_n will_v undervalue_n his_o skill_n or_o tell_v

with_o your_o school-learning_n there_o be_v such_o a_o one_o have_v the_o spirit_n 6._o the_o tone_n in_o preach_v do_v much_o in_o work_v upon_o the_o people_n affection_n if_o a_o man_n shall_v make_v love_n in_o a_o ordinary_a tone_n his_o mistress_n will_v not_o regard_v he_o and_o therefore_o he_o must_v whine_v if_o a_o man_n shall_v cry_v fire_n or_o murder_n in_o a_o ordinary_a voice_n no_o body_n will_v come_v out_o to_o help_v he_o 7._o preacher_n will_v bring_v any_o thing_n into_o the_o text._n the_o young_a master_n of_o art_n preach_v against_o nonresidency_a in_o the_o

be_v to_o be_v do_v it_o be_v just_a as_o if_o a_o husbandman_n shall_v once_o tell_v his_o servant_n what_o they_o be_v to_o do_v when_o to_o sow_v when_o to_o reap_v and_o afterward_o one_o shall_v

etc._n 9_o the_o main_a argument_n why_o they_o will_v have_v two_o sermon_n a_o day_n be_v because_o they_o have_v two_o meal_n a_o day_n the_o soul_n must_v be_v feed_v as_o well_o as_o the_o body_n but_o i_o may_v as_o well_o argue_v i_o ought_v to_o have_v two_o nose_n because_o i_o have_v two_o eye_n or_o two_o mouth_n because_o i_o have_v two_o ear_n what_o have_v meal_n and_o sermon_n to_o

exhort_v the_o people_n to_o go_v at_o these_o time_n to_o learn_v their_o duty_n towards_o their_o neighbour_n often_o preach_v be_v sure_a to_o keep_v the_o minister_n in_o countenance_n that_o he_o

the_o meaning_n of_o the_o law_n be_v that_o so_o much_o shall_v be_v take_v from_o a_o man_n such_o a_o cobbet_n slice_v off_o that_o yet_o not_o withstand_v he_o may_v live_v in_o the_o same_o
