if_o i_o be_v so_o vain_a to_o prefer_v it_o to_o that_o incomparable_a litany_n which_o our_o church_n enjoin_v but_o because_o there_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o need_n of_o a_o more_o particular_a deprecation_n of_o sin_n in_o the_o closet_n than_o in_o the_o public_a congregation_n and_o here_o i_o solemn_o protest_v that_o none_o of_o these_o private_a office_n can_v atone_v for_o the_o neglect_n of_o the_o public_a service_n which_o the_o church_n enjoin_v every_o day_n of_o this_o week_n but_o that_o every_o good_a man_n ought_v to_o frequent_v the_o house_n of_o god_n and_o to_o be_v present_a at_o all_o the_o hour_n of_o prayer_n which_o if_o he_o neglect_v i_o can_v see_v how_o he_o can_v expect_v the_o divine_a blessing_n on_o his_o private_a devotion_n in_o the_o circumstantial_o of_o which_o private_a worship_n i_o have_v instanced_a in_o those_o particular_n which_o many_o good_a christian_n to_o who_o this_o book_n may_v be_v serviceable_a can_v enjoy_v but_o every_o man_n prudence_n must_v be_v his_o guide_n in_o such_o case_n and_o he_o who_o have_v not_o a_o closet_n so_o furnish_v as_o be_v advise_v aught_o to_o take_v care_n that_o he_o do_v not_o altogether_o want_v a_o place_n to_o pray_v in_o and_o god_n will_v accept_v of_o he_o not_o according_a to_o what_o he_o have_v not_o but_o according_a to_o what_o he_o have_v here_o also_o i_o can_v but_o remark_n and_o censure_v a_o most_o unbecoming_a practice_n of_o our_o dissent_v brethren_n who_o in_o despite_n of_o our_o saviour_n command_n that_o we_o shall_v pray_v in_o secret_a choose_v their_o closet_n common_o next_o the_o street_n and_o when_o they_o be_v in_o it_o pray_v aloud_o though_o alone_o that_o all_o who_o pass_v by_o at_o least_o that_o be_v in_o the_o house_n may_v hear_v they_o which_o what_o it_o can_v mean_v but_o a_o design_n to_o be_v hear_v of_o man_n i_o can_v understand_v for_o if_o they_o hearty_o confess_v their_o sin_n and_o as_o i_o think_v it_o ought_v to_o be_v in_o private_a prayer_n by_o name_n and_o with_o all_o the_o aggravate_v circumstance_n that_o have_v attend_v their_o transgression_n what_o temptation_n be_v such_o people_n under_o either_o to_o hide_v their_o sin_n from_o god_n that_o the_o world_n may_v not_o know_v they_o or_o else_o so_o to_o acknowledge_v they_o as_o not_o to_o be_v ashamed_a to_o continue_v in_o they_o because_o those_o who_o vice_n be_v notorious_o know_v general_o take_v shelter_n in_o impudence_n but_o how_o unhappy_o such_o man_n do_v disserve_v the_o interest_n of_o religion_n be_v not_o the_o subject_a of_o this_o preface_n only_o i_o can_v forbear_v remember_v some_o few_o thing_n that_o relate_v to_o this_o sacrament_n such_o as_o their_o total_a neglect_n of_o the_o eucharist_n
