Bernard Albeit by one man in deede and one woman we were excedingly damaged yet God be thanked by one man and one woman al losses are repared And that not without great increase of graces For the benefite doth farre excede the losse Our merciful Father geuing vs for à terrestrial Adam Christ our Redemer and for old Eue Gods owne mother 1.

of frailrie the mind be caried away the fruit of that prayer is not therfore lost or frustrat but hath his effect by vertue of the former intention and purpose And the same is to be said of the second attention if one that vnderstandeth the language in which he prayeth doth purpose to marke the sense of the wordes and yet afterwards faileth to performe it But betvvene this second and the first attention this is the difference that albeit this second is profitable yet it is not so necessarie as the first neither in the beginning nor in the rest of the prayer For those that pray in a tongue they vnderstand not can not haue this attention and yet their prayer is profitable and fruitful by the vniuersal iudgement of al Doctors The third attention by which the mind is lifted vp to God and good spiritual desires and cogitations is not only necessarie in the beginning like as the first attention is but also most necessarie of al the three to be kept stil without interruption in respect of the third effect And this the vulerned may also haue praying in an vnknowne tongue And it sometimes so aboundeth that the mind forgetteth al other things as S. Thomas and before him S. Hugo de Victore and others do teach And in this case it supplieth also the defects which often happen in the other two attentions as wel in those vocal prayers which we are bound vnto by precept of the Church or other obligation so there be no notable defect in reciting the wordes as in other prayers which we are not bound to say And finally this attention perfecteth so much as can be in this transitorie life the spiritual repast of the faithful soule which attention ceassing necessarily the refection of the mind therwith also vanisheth but yet the other two effects do not therfore ceasse but remaine stil For not with standing the mind be caried by humane frailtie without voluntarie consent to thinke vpon base and terrestrial things yet the prayer may both merite increase of grace and obtayne the things that be asked And much lesse is euery euagation of mind in prayer to be reputed a sinne but that only which we either volunrarily admitte or willingly desire of some vaine or hurtful thing And so you see the maner of praying proposed in this booke doth not hinder due attention as the obiection presupposeth but greatly helpeth the same and bringeth also other spiritual commodities Of which some may be here briefly noted For first besides that the mind is hereby directed to the best and most necessarie attention required in prayer such also as be not so wel instructed already may by this forme of saying the Rosaries and Corones here ensuing learne many particular and most necessary points of Christian doctrine which being once knovven can not but moue a true Christian hart to some more or lesse cogitation and meditation of so great and singular benefites bestovved vpon vs by Almightie God And the more one shal meditate vpon the same the more also shal his knovvlege be stil increased So knovvlege and meditation do mutually helpe and increase ech other but one vvithout the other auaileth little For as meditation vvithout knovvlege is erroneous so knovvlege vvithout meditation is drie and fruitles But both together vvil easely inkindle the soul vvith the loue of God and feede it with a spititual refection and sturre vp and inflame the desire to al possible endeuour for the increase of Gods glorie and health of their ovvne and other mens soules Likevvise out of this varietie and copie of diuine Mysteries and benefites the vvel disposed may at al times and occasions choose sufficient and fit pointes to meditate vpon in al their prayers vocal or mental And finally by diligent vewing and beholding the pictures here placed euerie one may better conceiue and consider the Mysteries by them represented and be perhaps more moued to deuotion by sight therof then by only reading If any therfore wil vse this exercise no doubt but for revvard of their paines they shal reape hereby no smal fruite and increase of pietie You at least my deerely beloued in our Lord Iesus Christ vvho haue not better meanes to further your deuotions vvithal vse this helpe And vouchsafe of your charitie to commend al vs vvho to do you good haue bestovved labour and cost in setting forth this little vvorke amongst your other deere frendes vnto our B.
