not_o commend_v that_o man_n commend_v but_o that_o god_n commend_v one_o word_n of_o approbation_n from_o he_o be_v worth_a a_o thousand_o encomium_n and_o large_a panegyric_n of_o man_n sure_o god_n

have_v always_o a_o readiness_n of_o disposition_n to_o holy_a duty_n so_o here_o it_o be_v in_o moses_n it_o be_v fit_o say_v by_o our_o bless_a saviour_n pray_v always_o and_o by_o the_o apostle_n pray_v continual_o 1_o thes_n 5.17_o there_o be_v those_o that_o gross_o understand_v this_o for_o they_o think_v the_o strength_n of_o that_o counsel_n and_o admonition_n be_v that_o a_o man_n shall_v wave_v preach_v and_o receive_v of_o the_o sacrament_n and_o all_o part_n of_o god_n worship_n mere_o for_o that_o duty_n of_o prayer_n nay_o they_o think_v a_o man_n shall_v intermit_v the_o work_n of_o his_o ordinary_a call_n and_o vocation_n mere_o to_o be_v give_v to_o prayer_n therefore_o those_o euchites_n those_o man_n that_o pervert_v this_o place_n of_o who_o austin_n and_o other_o speak_v they_o employ_v all_o the_o time_n they_o can_v gain_v from_o their_o sleep_n and_o meat_n to_o pray_v it_o will_v but_o squander_v away_o the_o time_n and_o ravell_v it_o out_o unprofitable_o to_o bestow_v a_o large_a confutation_n of_o these_o people_n for_o certain_o god_n never_o intend_v that_o one_o of_o his_o ordinance_n shall_v justle_v out_o another_o there_o must_v be_v a_o time_n for_o hear_v and_o for_o pray_v and_o for_o work_v in_o a_o man_n calling_n that_o apostle_n that_o say_v pray_v continual_o say_v be_v instant_a in_o season_n and_o out_o of_o season_n to_o preach_v and_o hear_v the_o word_n and_o wish_v they_o to_o give_v to_o the_o poor_a and_o to_o work_v in_o their_o calling_n god_n never_o intend_v his_o ordinance_n shall_v enterfere_v or_o exclude_v each_o other_o but_o they_o must_v be_v sort_v out_o in_o due_a time_n and_o in_o fit_a opportunity_n but_o other_o have_v not_o well_o agree_v about_o these_o word_n for_o pray_v continual_o some_o understand_v that_o this_o consist_v in_o a_o man_n good_a life_n he_o that_o live_v a_o holy_a life_n pray_v continual_o true_o as_o the_o greek_a father_n say_v good_a work_n have_v a_o loud_a voice_n in_o the_o ear_n of_o god_n and_o that_o man_n pray_v still_o that_o be_v do_v good_a still_o chrysostome_n stick_v not_o to_o say_v that_o good_a work_n have_v the_o place_n of_o prayer_n with_o god_n and_o impetrate_v but_o i_o think_v not_o that_o that_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o apostle_n if_o therefore_o we_o understand_v it_o pray_v continual_o that_o be_v at_o set_a time_n and_o observe_v they_o with_o a_o non_fw-la obstante_fw-la so_o austin_n understand_v it_o other_o understand_v it_o pray_v continual_o that_o be_v upon_o all_o fit_a occasion_n lift_v up_o your_o soul_n to_o god_n though_o but_o in_o short_a ejaculation_n other_o understand_v it_o pray_v continual_o that_o be_v without_o faint_v though_o you_o have_v not_o the_o return_n of_o your_o petition_n present_o yet_o pray_v without_o weariness_n last_o austin_n light_v upon_o another_o for_o our_o purpose_n pray_v continual_o that_o be_v ever_o be_v dispose_v and_o fit_a to_o pray_v that_o we_o may_v say_v as_o david_n o_o god_n my_o heart_n be_v ready_a sure_o that_o david_n that_o can_v pray_v seven_o time_n a_o day_n and_o that_o daniel_n that_o can_v pray_v three_o time_n a_o day_n in_o a_o solemn_a manner_n retire_v themselves_o from_o all_o occasion_n to_o perform_v that_o duty_n to_o god_n we_o may_v well_o think_v that_o these_o people_n keep_v themselves_o in_o a_o fit_a disposition_n in_o a_o readiness_n to_o perform_v that_o duty_n they_o be_v ready_a upon_o all_o occasion_n that_o god_n offer_v to_o turn_v themselves_o too_o god_n i_o desire_v for_o the_o use_n of_o it_o that_o according_a to_o the_o example_n of_o moses_n and_o of_o these_o people_n we_o will_v be_v always_o ready_a there_o be_v a_o great_a defect_n and_o it_o be_v the_o worse_a because_o it_o be_v so_o necessary_a a_o practice_n for_o we_o there_o be_v some_o that_o be_v so_o bury_v in_o the_o care_n of_o the_o world_n and_o so_o take_v up_o with_o worldly_a occasion_n like_o martha_n they_o be_v busy_a about_o many_o thing_n that_o they_o have_v no_o time_n with_o mary_n to_o intend_v the_o best_a thing_n they_o be_v so_o unsettle_a by_o worldly_a occasion_n that_o it_o be_v a_o long_a time_n before_o they_o can_v put_v themselves_o into_o a_o course_n to_o pray_v their_o heart_n be_v untune_v they_o can_v hardly_o put_v they_o into_o a_o way_n of_o prayer_n and_z supplication_z and_o when_o they_o come_v to_o it_o as_o that_o old_a father_n say_v their_o body_n be_v at_o church_n and_o their_o mind_n be_v at_o home_n other_o be_v so_o take_v up_o with_o pleasure_n and_o recreation_n that_o they_o have_v no_o mind_n to_o pray_v there_o be_v other_o epicurious_a filthy_a people_n that_o outslip_v the_o morning_n prayer_n and_o before_o the_o evening_n sacrifice_n come_v they_o drown_v their_o devotion_n in_o drink_n that_o they_o have_v more_o need_n of_o sleep_n then_o mind_n to_o pray_v there_o be_v other_o that_o put_v themselves_o from_o a_o

to_o die_v and_o if_o so_o than_o we_o shall_v be_v always_o fit_a to_o pray_v it_o be_v the_o best_a preparation_n for_o death_n o_o there_o be_v none_o like_o that_o a_o spirit_n full_a of_o
