to be our atonement maker ours buckler our shield our strong fortres and helper in all needes ▪ Doth he not make daylye intercession for vs vnto God his father Yea hathe not he declared vnto vs that whatsoeuer we aske the Father in hys name he wyll giue it vs meaning for our healp and comfort in al our troubles and necessities Ther is no name vnder he auen wherin we must besaued but onli by the name of Iesu It is no maruayl● Christen Reader that they be so loth that theyr seruice shuld be in English for whose hart would not melt if he had ani sparke of knowledge in gods truth to heare such
