feel_a zeal_n and_o fervency_n of_o spirit_n unto_o god_n be_v a_o sanctify_a prayer_n a_o acceptable_a prayer_n a_o prayer_n that_o pierce_v the_o cloud_n press_v unto_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n and_o return_v not_o empty_a unto_o they_o that_o pour_v it_o forth_o such_o be_v the_o prayer_n of_o meek_a moses_n for_o the_o israehte_n against_o pharaoh_n and_o prevail_v such_o be_v the_o

and_o such_o be_v the_o prayer_n of_o the_o congregation_n here_o for_o peter_n and_o it_o likewise_o prevail_v such_o a_o prayer_n do_v the_o lord_n look_v for_o for_o such_o a_o prayer_n do_v he_o

though_o he_o lay_v bind_v with_o great_a cord_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o they_o so_o man_n do_v purpose_n but_o god_n do_v dispose_v man_n imagine_v but_o god_n determine_v all_o to_o the_o best_a for_o they_o that_o love_v he_o hence_o we_o be_v to_o learn_v that_o whatsoever_o trouble_n shall_v happen_v unto_o we_o they_o be_v know_v before_o hand_n &_o be_v especial_o appoint_v upon_o who_o

from_o the_o violent_a rage_n of_o herod_n a_o angel_n appear_v to_o paul_n in_o that_o 27._o act_n 27._o dangerous_a voyage_n and_o tell_v he_o that_o none_o in_o the_o ship_n shall_v perish_v and_o
