with_o a_o feel_a necessity_n and_o want_n as_o a_o whetstone_n to_o make_v our_o prayer_n fervent_a when_o seth_n call_v his_o son_n 26._o enosh_n that_o be_v miserable_a or_o calamitous_a than_o man_n begin_v to_o call_v upon_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n so_o that_o name_n express_v that_o they_o be_v sensible_a of_o their_o misery_n and_o that_o feel_v misery_n make_v man_n religious_a next_o come_v the_o desire_n to_o have_v that_o thing_n which_o we_o want_v it_o and_o that_o be_v the_o prayer_n itself_o for_o a_o ground_n we_o look_v to_o god_n mercy_n and_o for_o price_n we_o look_v to_o christ_n merit_n herein_o be_v the_o work_n of_o faith_n to_o make_v the_o prayer_n faithful_a as_o the_o precede_a conscience_n make_v it_o fervent_a it_o specifi_v our_o desire_n and_o make_v it_o supernatural_a for_o it_o be_v the_o hand_n of_o our_o soul_n meet_v god_n hand_n who_o offer_v his_o blessing_n to_o we_o in_o the_o promise_n as_o a_o lively_a child_n take_v the_o pap_n of_o his_o mother_n greedy_o and_o suck_v milk_n out_o of_o it_o large_o so_o the_o faithful_a soul_n open_v wide_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o desire_n take_v in_o the_o promise_n and_o suck_v the_o blessing_n of_o god_n out_o of_o it_o we_o present_v his_o promise_n as_o his_o own_o handwrit_a and_o obligation_n and_o he_o deign_v by_o his_o promise_n to_o be_v debtor_n to_o we_o to_o who_o he_o forgive_v all_o debt_n heart-prayer_n true_a prayer_n be_v not_o so_o much_o in_o our_o word_n as_o our_o heart_n word_n in_o public_a prayer_n be_v necessary_a for_o other_o to_o hear_v and_o follow_v we_o and_o in_o private_a prayer_n they_o serve_v to_o hold_v our_o mind_n constant_a but_o the_o life_n of_o prayer_n stand_v in_o faithful_a desire_n for_o long_a speech_n be_v one_o thing_n and_o a_o strong_a affection_n be_v another_o and_o the_o work_n of_o prayer_n be_v do_v more_o by_o groan_n than_o by_o word_n and_o by_o tear_n more_o than_o talk_v 10._o and_o the_o lord_n care_v not_o much_o for_o the_o cry_n of_o our_o flesh_n but_o for_o the_o cry_n of_o our_o heart_n for_o his_o ear_n be_v in_o our_o heart_n and_o he_o hear_v we_o say_v nothing_o to_o he_o but_o what_o he_o have_v first_o speak_v to_o we_o 2._o moses_n be_v silent_a at_o the_o red_a sea_n and_o yet_o god_n say_v to_o he_o 15._o why_o cry_v thou_o his_o mouth_n be_v close_o but_o his_o heart_n be_v cry_v to_o the_o lord_n he_o be_v grieve_v to_o see_v the_o people_n danger_n and_o yet_o believe_v god_n who_o promise_v to_o deliver_v they_o and_o be_v challenge_v god_n in_o his_o heart_n to_o keep_v his_o promise_n therefore_o one_o say_v that_o the_o people_n cry_v but_o god_n hear_v they_o not_o moses_n cry_v not_o and_o yet_o the_o lord_n answer_v he_o serm_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v clear_a because_o the_o cry_n of_o the_o people_n be_v in_o murmur_v and_o fleshly_a reason_n which_o god_n misregard_v but_o the_o secret_a and_o heart-cries_a of_o moses_n be_v the_o language_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n and_o the_o apostle_n seem_v to_o point_v at_o this_o when_o he_o tell_v the_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n help_v we_o to_o pray_v bring_v forth_o 26._o sigh_n and_o groan_n which_o can_v be_v utter_v we_o call_v he_o then_o into_o ourselves_o when_o we_o call_v upon_o he_o 2._o light_a care_n can_v speak_v prayer_n but_o great_a care_n do_v stupefy_v with_o silence_n weak_a desire_n be_v easy_o express_v but_o excessive_a desire_n can_v be_v equal_v by_o speech_n a_o rod_n serve_v a_o man_n in_o a_o small_a work_n but_o in_o a_o great_a he_o cast_v it_o away_o and_o take_v he_o to_o strong_a instrument_n so_o the_o tongue_n be_v a_o sufficient_a interpreter_n in_o other_o thing_n but_o here_o we_o leave_v it_o and_o take_v we_o to_o groan_n and_o sigh_n the_o best_a language_n of_o the_o heart_n man_n may_v be_v near_o and_o not_o hear_v we_o and_o yet_o our_o groan_n be_v hear_v in_o the_o heaven_n of_o heaven_n we_o can_v bide_v in_o ourselves_o but_o will_v be_v at_o god_n and_o yet_o can_v win_v to_o he_o as_o we_o will_v therefore_o we_o groan_v under_o that_o restraint_n god_n suggestion_n to_o our_o heart_n be_v by_o inspiration_n of_o heavenly_a power_n make_v we_o capable_a of_o grace_n and_o by_o infusion_n pour_v in_o that_o grace_n he_o offer_v so_o our_o best_a speech_n to_o he_o be_v by_o aspire_v not_o of_o ambition_n but_o of_o affection_n in_o breathe_v to_o he_o as_o the_o 1._o chase_a hart_n do_v to_o the_o water_n the_o kiss_n of_o christ_n on_o our_o soul_n be_v better_o impress_v and_o stamp_v by_o he_o than_o can_v be_v express_v by_o we_o bern._n so_o the_o best_a express_v of_o our_o soul_n to_o he_o be_v better_a by_o thrust_v it_o on_o he_o than_o by_o utter_v of_o word_n this_o excessive_a desire_n of_o god_n be_v wrought_v in_o the_o heart_n by_o himself_o he_o he_o fill_v it_o both_o with_o himself_o and_o a_o desire_n of_o he_o that_o he_o may_v make_v it_o sensible_a of_o both_o the_o more_o it_o be_v full_a of_o he_o it_o desire_v he_o the_o more_o and_o the_o more_o it_o pour_v out_o itself_o in_o that_o desire_n it_o be_v satiat_fw-la the_o more_fw-it and_o the_o more_o the_o desire_n increase_v and_o in_o this_o heavenly_a inebriation_n satiety_n provoke_v our_o thirst_n the_o more_o we_o have_v of_o god_n we_o thirst_v he_o the_o more_o and_o be_v inflame_v with_o new_a desire_n superstitious_a worshipper_n think_v by_o their_o prayer_n as_o charm_n to_o devocat_fw-la and_o draw_v god_n out_o of_o heaven_n and_o the_o idolater_n think_v to_o command_v he_o but_o both_o separate_v themselves_o from_o he_o but_o the_o godly_a seek_v he_o in_o their_o heart_n and_o thrust_v their_o heart_n on_o he_o it_o be_v also_o a_o touch_n of_o that_o 5._o sickness_n of_o love_n when_o the_o soul_n burn_v in_o a_o desire_n of_o god_n and_o that_o sickness_n be_v the_o health_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o god_n sensible_o fill_v the_o heart_n be_v the_o cure_n of_o that_o sickness_n this_o prayer_n than_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o lay_n of_o his_o desirous_a heart_n open_a to_o the_o fountain_n to_o drink_v in_o happiness_n who_o so_o have_v receive_v this_o affectuous_a devotion_n and_o devout_a affection_n to_o god_n have_v already_o conceive_v the_o birth_n of_o happiness_n and_o shall_v travel_v therewith_o now_o painful_o now_o joyful_o till_o he_o be_v deliver_v of_o it_o in_o his_o full_a delivery_n from_o all_o misery_n obtain_v three_o hope_v of_o obtain_v happiness_n follow_v our_o faithful_a prayer_n for_o what_o faith_n believe_v that_o

our_o hand_n though_o sometime_o intervene_v for_o 37._o he_o that_o be_v to_o come_v will_v come_v and_o not_o delay_v 12._o and_o behold_v i_o come_v and_o my_o reward_n be_v with_o i_o 18._o and_o the_o hope_n of_o the_o godly_a shall_v not_o perish_v our_o hope_n be_v great_o confirm_v by_o the_o taste_v of_o happiness_n we_o find_v in_o prayer_n we_o may_v more_o firm_o expect_v that_o that_o

prayer_n if_o he_o have_v merit_n for_o happiness_n he_o will_v not_o beg_v it_o as_o a_o gift_n but_o exact_v it_o as_o a_o debt_n the_o apostle_n clear_v this_o for_o when_o he_o have_v say_v 23._o the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n if_o he_o have_v follow_v the_o rule_n of_o logic_n he_o will_v have_v say_v that_o the_o reward_n of_o righteousness_n be_v life_n eternal_a but_o he_o know_v that_o can_v not_o stand_v with_o god_n mercy_n and_o christ_n merit_n therefore_o he_o call_v life_n eternal_a the_o free_a gift_n of_o god_n and_o to_o this_o truth_n god_n provide_v himself_o a_o
