therefore_o they_o be_v not_o so_o much_o to_o regard_v that_o they_o have_v but_o also_o to_o regard_v that_o they_o want_v for_o unless_o a_o man_n do_v look_v to_o his_o want_n and_o corruption_n though_o he_o have_v but_o one_o little_a grace_n he_o will_v be_v li●ted_v up_o against_o god_n and_o against_o man_n and_o therefore_o to_o be_v pray_v for_o as_o we_o see_v in_o popery_n that_o howsoever_o they_o have_v no_o gift_n but_o natural_a and_o common_a yet_o be_v they_o puff_v up_o in_o the_o pride_n of_o their_o heart_n in_o this_o regard_n that_o they_o boast_v they_o can_v

cause_n they_o have_v need_v to_o be_v pray_v for_o another_o reason_n be_v in_o regard_n of_o other_o man_n lest_o they_o be_v lift_v up_o above_o other_o which_o be_v do_v in_o that_o by_o see_v

dishonour_n of_o god_n and_o be_v turn_v against_o god_n himself_o indeed_o it_o be_v a_o shame_n that_o the_o fall_n of_o the_o servant_n shall_v be_v lay_v upon_o the_o master_n for_o if_o a_o master_n or_o father_n have_v labour_v to_o bring_v their_o son_n or_o servant_n up_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n it_o be_v a_o shame_n that_o the_o fault_n shall_v be_v lay_v on_o the_o parent_n or_o master_n for_o we_o usual_o say_v if_o one_o thus_o bring_v up_o do_v fall_n in_o his_o life_n their_o parent_n or_o master_n have_v do_v their_o part_n but_o he_o be_v a_o ungracious_a child_n or_o servant_n but_o man_n do_v not_o so_o to_o god_n for_o if_o any_o of_o his_o child_n fall_v they_o lay_v it_o straight_o and_o impute_v it_o unto_o god_n himself_o and_o therefore_o we_o ought_v the_o more_o to_o pray_v for_o they_o that_o be_v exalt_v by_o the_o lord_n that_o by_o their_o fall_n the_o gospel_n of_o god_n may_v not_o be_v dishonour_v and_o as_o they_o be_v place_v in_o high_a place_n and_o be_v endue_v with_o great_a gift_n so_o the_o more_o earnest_o we_o ought_v to_o pray_v for_o they_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o examine_v whether_o when_o we_o have_v a_o minister_n to_o enter_v and_o come_v unto_o we_o to_o instruct_v we_o we_o have_v commend_v he_o to_o the_o lord_n or_o whether_o we_o have_v be_v thankful_a for_o any_o blessing_n that_o we_o have_v receive_v
