A68718	A key of heaven the Lords Prayer opened, and so applied, that a Christian may learne how to pray, and to procure all things which may make for the glorie of God, and the good of himselfe, and of his neighbour : containing likewise such doctrines of faith and godlines, as may be very usefull to all that desire to live godly in Christ Iesus.

four_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v be_v the_o end_n which_o god_n propose_v and_o attain_v by_o permit_v and_o order_v of_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n far_o different_a from_o those_o which_o man_n
