pray_v get_v into_o church_n and_o such_o as_o they_o call_v consecrate_a place_n there_o to_o show_v i_o think_v that_o be_v a_o word_n very_o proper_a to_o the_o design_n their_o devotion_n though_o i_o do_v not_o see_v but_o that_o when_o their_o hour_n of_o prayer_n be_v come_v and_o their_o service_n be_v do_v their_o church_n be_v exceed_o empty_a which_o be_v indeed_o a_o shame_n to_o they_o for_o if_o they_o be_v persuade_v in_o their_o conscience_n that_o be_v the_o way_n of_o god_n why_o do_v they_o not_o frequent_v it_o if_o they_o be_v convince_v that_o be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o

good_a that_o love_v it_o but_o since_o their_o cry_n for_o it_o be_v so_o loud_a why_o be_v their_o devotion_n so_o little_a why_o do_v small_a matter_n keep_v they_o at_o home_n upon_o weekday_n why_o do_v they_o choose_v tavern_n and_o alehouse_n rather_o than_o their_o place_n of_o prayer_n let_v they_o look_v to_o it_o that_o their_o seem_a zeal_n do_v not_o come_v from_o a_o bad_a

that_o make_v for_o peace_n let_v those_o that_o like_v it_o and_o choose_v it_o use_v it_o if_o they_o please_v let_v they_o that_o find_v it_o heart-raising_a heart-warming_a heart-inlarging_a go_v on_o in_o their_o attendance_n upon_o it_o i_o envy_v none_o that_o which_o they_o like_v and_o may_v do_v they_o good_a especial_o when_o i_o have_v that_o which_o please_v i_o better_o bless_a be_v

open_v the_o lord_n grant_v none_o may_v be_v able_a to_o shut_v it_o that_o which_o i_o blame_v many_o for_o be_v their_o idolize_v of_o public_a place_n as_o if_o they_o do_v put_v a_o holiness_n and_o virtue_n into_o work_n do_v in_o they_o and_o as_o if_o public_a prayer_n be_v enough_o and_o will_v serve_v for_o all_o how_o have_v we_o some_o superstitious_a person_n as_o they_o pass_v
