to_o consider_v of_o but_o this_o by_o the_o way_n only_o and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o my_o three_o position_n iii_o first_o of_o all_o i_o will_v have_v it_o here_o remember_v that_o what_o s._n paul_n write_v 1_o tim._n 2.1_o 2._o i_o exhort_v therefore_o that_o first_o of_o all_o supplication_n prayer_n intercession_n and_o give_v of_o thanks_o be_v make_v for_o all_o man_n for_o king_n and_o

prayer_n of_o the_o church_n as_o have_v already_o be_v declare_v upon_o which_o i_o infer_v that_o when_o the_o ancient_n speak_v of_o the_o power_n and_o efficaâ—ie_v of_o prayer_n and_o supplication_n to_o the_o procure_n of_o public_a blessing_n as_o peace_n plenty_n etc._n etc._n they_o be_v which_o i_o think_v no_o reasonable_a man_n will_v deny_v especial_o to_o be_v understand_v of_o daily_a public_a church-prayer_n so_o be_v origen_n to_o be_v understand_v in_o those_o word_n of_o his_o in_o his_o eight_o book_n contra_fw-la celsum_fw-la thus_o render_v by_o sigismundus_n

soldier_n for_o all_o that_o take_v liberty_n for_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n or_o for_o all_o that_o confess_v free_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n for_o all_o that_o bring_v forth_o spiritual_a fruit_n etc._n etc._n i_o think_v no_o man_n will_v think_v it_o probable_a that_o if_o these_o solemn_a set_a prayer_n of_o the_o church_n have_v be_v of_o late_a institution_n and_o therefore_o easy_o alterable_a he_o will_v have_v speak_v of_o they_o so_o peremptory_o that_o it_o be_v impossible_a etc._n etc._n but_o here_o i_o must_v needs_o give_v a_o reason_n why_o i_o translate_v the_o word_n {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o {non-roman}_o a_o bid_v or_o praeconization_n and_o not_o with_o the_o latin_a interpreter_n concionem_fw-la and_o this_o the_o rather_o because_o i_o see_v bellarmine_n 13._o as_o great_a a_o clerk_n as_o he_o be_v gross_o to_o mistake_v in_o the_o like_a and_o upon_o the_o mistake_n of_o the_o word_n to_o ground_v a_o false_a opinion_n that_o deacon_n in_o ancient_a time_n be_v wont_a to_o preach_v in_o ancient_a time_n it_o be_v the_o deacon_n office_n in_o the_o time_n of_o public_a prayer_n and_o liturgy_n by_o loud_a speech_n and_o proclamation_n of_o the_o matter_n to_o let_v the_o people_n know_v what_o be_v do_v or_o to_o be_v do_v which_o be_v to_o this_o end_n that_o both_o they_o who_o it_o particular_o concern_v may_v take_v the_o better_a notice_n and_o also_o to_o quicken_v and_o stir_v up_o their_o intention_n and_o attention_n general_o that_o they_o may_v all_o remember_v themselves_o where_o they_o be_v and_o what_o they_o be_v about_o and_o careful_o hoc_fw-la agere_fw-la sometime_o their_o cry_n be_v harken_v to_o the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o the_o gospel_n the_o

praedicare_fw-la lectionem_fw-la or_o euangelium_fw-la etc._n etc._n sometime_o they_o say_v o_o you_o cathecumeni_fw-la you_o be_v to_o pray_v o_o you_o believer_n let_v we_o pray_v for_o the_o

ancient_a christian_n be_v wont_a to_o use_v the_o public_a set_a prayer_n of_o the_o church_n in_o their_o private_a house_n and_o family_n and_o there_o may_v use_v they_o at_o what_o time_n of_o the_o day_n or_o night_n they_o think_v good_a whereof_o we_o shall_v by_o and_o by_o give_v a_o example_n in_o constantine_n and_o yet_o i_o profess_v i_o do_v not_o allege_v this_o passage_n as_o

or_o prayer_n by_o prayer_n mean_v that_o which_o now_o the_o grecian_n call_v their_o euchologium_fw-la or_o prayer-book_n and_o i_o hope_v it_o will_v be_v grant_v that_o if_o the_o prayer_n give_v
