book_n it_o have_v three_o degree_n the_o beginning_n middle_a and_o end_v of_o it_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o it_o there_o be_v read_v of_o psalm_n principal_o to_o raise_v up_o our_o affection_n and_o of_o other_o scripture_n both_o of_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n to_o confirm_v our_o judgement_n in_o the_o truth_n 17._o and_o to_o help_v we_o to_o search_v whether_o thing_n hear_v be_v so_o or_o no._n there_o be_v confession_n of_o our_o faith_n that_o we_o may_v profess_v it_o as_o a_o brief_a rule_n from_o scripture_n to_o try_v whether_o we_o stand_v in_o the_o faith_n whereto_o we_o may_v refer_v the_o truth_n of_o faith_n in_o the_o scripture_n and_o we_o have_v prayer_n wherein_o we_o be_v not_o long_o at_o once_o or_o with_o a_o breath_n but_o have_v distinct_a and_o divide_a salutation_n praise_n and_o petition_n for_o ourselves_o chief_a member_n and_o the_o church_n that_o we_o may_v the_o better_o hold_v out_o unto_o the_o end_n without_o distraction_n all_o this_o i_o be_o sure_a none_o if_o they_o understand_v can_v just_o blame_v only_o there_o be_v one_o thing_n worth_a notice_n which_o do_v hardly_o relish_v to_o some_o few_o and_o can_v by_o no_o mean_n be_v endure_v by_o the_o brownist_n and_o that_o be_v the_o litany_n this_o stick_v most_o because_o they_o be_v more_o careful_a to_o make_v objection_n against_o it_o then_o answer_v for_o it_o that_o they_o may_v have_v comfort_n and_o peace_n with_o we_o therefore_o with_o christ_n help_n i_o shall_v endeavour_v two_o thing_n to_o show_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o name_n and_o how_o they_o may_v satisfy_v themselves_o against_o such_o scruple_n as_o may_v arise_v it_o be_v call_v a_o litany_n lit●y_n which_o be_v a_o humble_a prayer_n who_o use_n be_v most_o for_o adversity_n it_o come_v of_o a_o word_n that_o signify_v to_o supplicate_v from_o whence_o come_v suppliant_a prayer_n the_o ancient_a church_n be_v full_a of_o they_o as_o i_o can_v show_v which_o usual_o begin_v with_o lord_n have_v mercy_n upon_o we_o christ_n have_v mercy_n upon_o we_o and_o why_o shall_v we_o be_v empty_a see_v we_o will_v be_v account_v as_o good_a christian_n as_o they_o there_o be_v divers_a exception_n against_o we_o therefore_o let_v we_o see_v next_o how_o they_o may_v satisfy_v themselves_o against_o they_o there_o be_v no_o church_n that_o i_o know_v but_o must_v have_v a_o favourable_a construction_n of_o some_o thing_n and_o so_o must_v ou●s_v yet_o in_o this_o i_o see_v not_o but_o that_o all_o excepter_n may_v be_v full_o satisfy_v the_o exception_n that_o i_o have_v yet_o meet_v with_o be_v against_o the_o manner_n of_o this_o prayer_n and_o against_o the_o matter_n of_o it_o ob._n against_o the_o manner_n they_o say_v that_o it_o be_v with_o repetition_n of_o the_o people_n and_o interlocutary_a passage_n sol._n as_o for_o that_o i_o find_v that_o in_o the_o scripture_n god_n have_v command_v public_a prayer_n that_o be_v that_o presbyter_n and_o people_n shall_v pray_v but_o he_o have_v not_o command_v any_o form_n or_o manner_n to_o carry_v their_o prayer_n in_o but_o only_o that_o it_o be_v do_v to_o edification_n therefore_o he_o have_v leave_v that_o free_a to_o the_o wisdom_n and_o judgement_n of_o the_o governor_n and_o this_o we_o have_v often_o experience_n of_o that_o if_o a_o continue_a prayer_n be_v but_o half_a so_o long_o some_o will_v be_v nod_v before_o it_o be_v do_v whereas_o if_o they_o be_v keep_v busy_a by_o the_o matter_n in_o hand_n they_o be_v more_o vigilant_a ob._n but_o say_v they_o he_o have_v give_v we_o the_o lord_n prayer_n all_o in_o one_o length_n and_o set_v amen_o in_o the_o latter_a end_n 11._o this_o be_v true_a yet_o mark_v he_o say_v to_o his_o disciple_n when_o you_o pray_v say_v our_o father_n and_o amen_o too_o and_o he_o have_v not_o tell_v they_o in_o what_o manner_n they_o shall_v say_v it_o when_o they_o pray_v together_o whether_o one_o shall_v say_v the_o petition_n and_o the_o rest_n amen_o or_o whether_o all_o shall_v say_v the_o petition_n and_o amen_o too_o in_o this_o he_o have_v leave_v they_o to_o edification_n object_n and_o we_o also_o but_o it_o be_v say_v that_o some_o part_n of_o the_o litany_n be_v so_o say_v that_o the_o reader_n show_v only_o what_o they_o must_v pray_v for_o and_o the_o people_n make_v the_o suit_n as_o when_o they_o say_v from_o such_o and_o such_o a_o thing_n good_a lord_n deliver_v we_o and_o this_o seem_v to_o be_v absurd_a sol._n that_o the_o people_n shall_v make_v it_o without_o the_o minister_n be_v not_o enjoin_v that_o the_o minister_n do_v not_o intend_v and_o make_v the_o suit_n be_v false_a except_o he_o be_v careless_a and_o wicked_a as_o the_o people_n say_v amen_o aloud_o and_o the_o minister_n say_v it_o too_o though_o haply_o not_o so_o loud_o so_o the_o minister_n intend_v and_o say_v good_a lord_n deliver_v we_o though_o the_o people_n in_o turn_n exceed_v in_o voice_n against_o the_o matter_n of_o this_o prayer_n many_o thing_n be_v object_v few_o thing_n weigh_v and_o nothing_o prove_v but_o evident_a quarrel_n there_o be_v exception_n against_o word_n and_o phrase_n and_o against_o suit_n convey_v in_o they_o the_o word_n and_o phrase_n be_v by_o thy_o cross_n and_o passion_n by_o thy_o precious_a death_n etc._n etc._n which_o some_o of_o they_o object_n out_o of_o the_o le●ity_n of_o mind_n call_v conjure_v some_o out_o of_o worse_a call_v swear_v as_o if_o none_o can_v out_o swear_v the_o litany_n sol._n let_v they_o take_v heed_n how_o they_o blaspheme_v the_o piety_n of_o god_n servant_n it_o be_v none_o of_o elies_n goodness_n when_o he_o reproach_v the_o prayer_n of_o hannah_n 1._o as_o if_o she_o be_v drink_v when_o she_o make_v they_o let_v they_o apply_v this_o to_o themselves_o it_o will_v not_o be_v deny_v but_o that_o christ_n bring_v we_o a_o great_a benefit_n by_o all_o these_o for_o what_o he_o do_v as_o a_o public_a person_n he_o do_v for_o we_o and_o our_o salvation_n in_o one_o degree_n or_o other_o now_o what_o be_v this_o but_o a_o pray_v that_o all_o these_o act_n and_o passion_n of_o christ_n in_o their_o virtue_n and_o merit_n be_v apply_v to_o we_o by_o god_n love_n that_o we_o may_v find_v the_o profit_n of_o they_o but_o now_o the_o suit_n that_o we_o convey_v in_o the_o word_n of_o that_o good_a prayer_n be_v troublesome_a to_o they_o both_o when_o we_o sue_v for_o thing_n and_o person_n object_n as_o for_o thing_n we_o pray_v against_o two_o thing_n which_o they_o do_v not_o like_a against_o sudden_a death_n and_o against_o the_o sin_n of_o our_o forefather_n sol._n as_o for_o the_o first_o there_o be_v a_o double_a sudden_a death_n sudden_a in_o time_n and_o sudden_a for_o want_v of_o preparation_n god_n have_v say_v that_o he_o will_v come_v before_o that_o we_o be_v aware_a like_o a_o thief_n in_o the_o night_n he_o will_v be_v do_v we_o pray_v not_o against_o that_o but_o we_o pray_v that_o his_o come_n may_v not_o be_v so_o sudden_a but_o that_o through_o wisdom_n give_v 25_o we_o may_v set_v our_o house_n in_o order_n and_o be_v as_o the_o wise_a virgin_n have_v our_o lamp_n and_o oil_n in_o a_o readiness_n and_o from_o such_o sudden_a death_n good_a lord_n deliver_v we_o as_o for_o the_o sin_n of_o our_o forefather_n which_o be_v dead_a be_v now_o out_o of_o the_o state_n of_o forgiveness_n we_o pray_v not_o that_o their_o sin_n be_v forgive_v they_o 20._o but_o that_o they_o be_v not_o remember_v to_o be_v punish_v in_o we_o god_n punish_v to_o the_o three_o and_o four_o generation_n and_o the_o psalmist_n say_v 14._o let_v the_o iniquity_n of_o his_o father_n be_v remember_v before_o the_o lord_n and_o let_v not_o the_o sin_n of_o his_o mother_n be_v blot_v out_o that_o their_o posterity_n be_v cut_v off_o and_o in_o the_o generation_n follow_v their_o name_n be_v blot_v out_o and_o because_o these_o commination_n have_v condition_n of_o repentance_n annex_v to_o they_o do_v not_o we_o well_o to_o repent_v and_o cry_v to_o god_n remember_v not_o the_o iniquity_n of_o forefather_n for_o fear_n of_o those_o sin_n that_o have_v go_v before_o we_o but_o yet_o they_o like_v not_o the_o person_n that_o we_o pray_v for_o when_o we_o say_v ob_fw-la that_o god_n will_v have_v mercy_n upon_o all_o man_n for_o christ_n say_v 17._o he_o pray_v not_o for_o the_o world_n but_o our_o church_n care_v not_o who_o they_o pray_v for_o indeed_o sol._n because_o we_o find_v that_o we_o have_v a_o precept_n pray_v for_o all_o man_n and_o a_o
