beneficial_a to_o all_o but_o that_o some_o duty_n and_o qualification_n on_o our_o part_n be_v necessary_a both_o that_o his_o merit_n and_o the_o benefit_n of_o his_o intercession_n shall_v be_v effectual_o apply_v unto_o we_o 3._o among_o these_o qualification_n we_o be_v to_o reckon_v not_o only_o our_o own_o prayer_n for_o ourselves_o but_o mutual_a prayer_n for_o one_o another_o which_o therefore_o we_o may_v beg_v from_o one_o another_o as_o st._n 19_o paul_n himself_o do_v from_o the_o ephesian_n 1._o colossian_n etc._n etc._n 4._o because_o the_o more_o holy_a any_o person_n be_v the_o more_o effectual_a will_v his_o intercession_n be_v with_o god_n therefore_o we_o may_v beg_v of_o know_a saint_n their_o prayer_n to_o god_n for_o we_o with_o great_a hope_n of_o success_n 5._o such_o beg_n of_o prayer_n be_v far_o from_o idolatry_n superstition_n or_o diminution_n to_o christ_n honour_n since_o holy_a person_n live_v or_o dead_a be_v not_o invocate_v as_o donor_n but_o fellow-begger_n with_o god_n for_o we_o 6._o though_o a_o christian_a may_v be_v save_v who_o pray_v to_o god_n alone_o and_o request_v not_o the_o prayer_n of_o other_o yet_o to_o refuse_v the_o assistance_n of_o those_o who_o prayer_n god_n more_o willing_o hear_v be_v a_o neglect_n at_o least_o of_o use_v all_o mean_n helpful_a to_o we_o 7._o genes_n nevertheless_o we_o say_v with_o saint_n chrysostom_n god_n will_v bestow_v salvation_n much_o rather_o on_o we_o pray_v for_o ourselves_o than_o for_o other_o pray_v for_o we_o and_o we_o be_v much_o more_o safe_a by_o our_o own_o devotion_n without_o other_o then_o by_o other_o alone_z and_o therefore_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v slothful_a and_o secure_a depend_v on_o other●s_a merit_n for_o the_o prayer_n and_o supplication_n of_o saint_n have_v indeed_o very_o great_a force_n with_o god_n in_o our_o behalf_n but_o it_o be_v then_o true_o when_o we_o with_o penance_n and_o humiliation_n beg_v the_o same_o thing_n also_o of_o god_n and_o therefore_o say_v the_o same_o saint_n know_v these_o thing_n thes._n let_v we_o neither_o neglect_o contemn_v the_o prayer_n of_o saint_n nor_o cast_v ourselves_o whole_o upon_o they_o 5._o whatsoever_o have_v be_v hitherto_o say_v may_v indifferent_o be_v apply_v as_o well_o to_o saint_n depart_v as_o to_o saint_n alive_a if_o the_o prayer_n to_o saint_n depart_v be_v prejudicial_a to_o the_o merit_n &_o intercession_n of_o our_o lord_n so_o be_v the_o bege_v of_o the_o prayer_n of_o those_o alive_a if_o one_o be_v unlawful_a so_o be_v the_o other_o nay_o most_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o if_o both_o be_v lawful_a the_o prayer_n of_o saint_n depart_v will_v be_v incomparable_o more_o effectual_a and_o therefore_o will_v better_o deserv_v to_o be_v make_v use_n of_o than_o the_o other_o therefore_o notwithstanding_o most_o of_o the_o argument_n of_o protestant_n against_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n touch_v invocation_n of_o saint_n depart_v do_v prove_v full_a as_o much_o against_o prayer_n to_o the_o live_n and_o therefore_o be_v evident_o unconcluding_a yet_o those_o who_o be_v most_o learned_a and_o sober_a and_o will_v not_o wilful_o mistake_n catholic_n doctrine_n do_v free_a we_o from_o all_o imputation_n of_o idolatry_n superstition_n or_o do_v injury_n to_o christ_n and_o reduce_v the_o controversy_n to_o a_o short_a point_n for_o they_o question_v not_o whether_o the_o saint_n pray_v in_o general_a for_o we_o but_o rather_o willing_o acknowledge_v it_o yea_o they_o will_v not_o positive_o deny_v but_o they_o may_v and_o do_v pray_v personal_o for_o their_o former_a know_a
