though_o these_o be_v plain_a thing_n they_o may_v do_v our_o soul_n a_o great_a deal_n of_o good_a if_o god_n will_v bless_v they_o it_o be_v a_o great_a relief_n in_o a_o calamity_n when_o the_o

will_v have_v none_o to_o befriend_v thou_o at_o that_o hour_n unless_o christ_n be_v thy_o friend_n it_o be_v well_o for_o they_o that_o have_v a_o

that_o that_o saint_n shall_v put_v out_o hard_o for_o to_o be_v deliver_v in_o time_n of_o common_a calamity_n i_o shall_v now_o go_v on_o with_o the_o four_o observation_n from_o the_o word_n that_o watchfulness_n and_o prayer_n be_v rare_a preservative_n and_o excellent_a mean_n for_o safety_n in_o the_o time_n of_o common_a calamity_n i_o dare_v not_o say_v they_o be_v never-failing_a mean_n but_o they_o be_v the_o best_a mean_n and_o that_o as_o seldom_o fail_v as_o any_o they_o be_v the_o best_a preservative_n you_o can_v have_v and_o will_v do_v you_o most_o service_n of_o any_o thing_n if_o there_o be_v any_o safety_n to_o be_v have_v it_o be_v in_o the_o use_n of_o these_o mean_n that_o be_v the_o note_n i_o will_v spend_v a_o little_a time_n upon_o the_o god_n of_o all_o our_o mercy_n know_v how_o to_o make_v it_o of_o use_n to_o we_o i_o will_v treat_v a_o little_a distinct_o on_o each_o of_o they_o and_o show_v how_o far_o each_o of_o they_o serve_v to_o this_o design_n what_o part_n prayer_n have_v in_o it_o and_o what_o part_n watchfulness_n i_o shall_v begin_v with_o the_o first_o viz._n prayer_n and_o in_o what_o i_o have_v to_o say_v to_o that_o i_o shall_v propound_v three_o thing_n to_o be_v treat_v on_o 1._o consider_v a_o little_a what_o prayer_n be_v because_o if_o we_o mistake_v the_o thing_n itself_o we_o be_v out_o in_o the_o whole_a as_o if_o a_o skilful_a physician_n prescribe_v one_o potion_n and_o it_o be_v mistake_v and_o another_o take_v for_o it_o instead_o of_o do_v good_a it_o may_v do_v much_o harm_n therefore_o it_o be_v good_a to_o know_v what_o prayer_n be_v 2._o consider_v what_o prayer_n be_v wont_a to_o do_v when_o physician_n prescribe_v a_o remedy_n they_o will_v tell_v you_o what_o great_a cure_v such_o medicine_n have_v effect_v and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o what_o prayer_n have_v do_v and_o then_o how_o it_o come_v to_o be_v particular_o useful_a in_o this_o case_n of_o a_o common_a calamity_n for_o the_o first_o then_o what_o be_v prayer_n we_o oft_o speak_v of_o go_v to_o prayer_n but_o what_o be_v pray_v why_o prayer_n it_o may_v be_v thus_o describe_v it_o be_v the_o
