to_o come_v to_o the_o word_n pray_v for_o we_o say_v he_o brethren_z there_o be_v two_o thing_n in_o the_o word_n follow_v thereof_o paul_n crave_v prayer_n both_o for_o the_o gospel_n &_o for_o the_o minister_n thereof_o in_o respect_n of_o which_o they_o shall_v pray_v for_o paul_n syluanus_n and_o timotheiu_n first_o he_o desire_v they_o to_o pray_v in_o respect_n of_o that_o gospel_n that_o be_v concredite_fw-la unto_o they_o then_o again_o he_o desire_v they_o to_o pray_v for_o he_o in_o respect_n of_o their_o person_n mark_v then_o the_o order_n when_o he_o desire_v that_o they_o shall_v pray_v for_o he_o he_o desire_v not_o first_o that_o they_o shall_v pray_v for_o the_o good_a estate_n of_o his_o person_n but_o to_o pray_v for_o he_o in_o respect_n of_o that_o

lesson_n be_v easy_a a_o pastor_n or_o preacher_n after_o the_o example_n of_o paul_n be_v bind_v to_o care_n for_o the_o gospel_n more_o nor_o for_o his_o own_o life_n then_o after_o the_o gospel_n

he_o if_o he_o be_v the_o best_a preacher_n that_o ever_o speak_v therefore_o that_o man_n must_v sin_v great_o in_o the_o high_o degree_n that_o will_v teach_v the_o gospel_n not_o so_o much_o for_o the_o gospel_n sake_n as_o for_o his_o own_o sake_n that_o by_o it_o he_o may_v entertain_v his_o dignity_n and_o life_n it_o be_v true_a indeed_o the_o minister_n shall_v live_v by_o the_o gospel_n and_o shall_v be_v entertain_v by_o it_o yet_o his_o live_n shall_v not_o be_v the_o end_n of_o his_o preach_n but_o his_o preach_v shall_v be_v the_o end_n wherefore_o he_o shall_v desire_v to_o

desire_v two_o thing_n the_o first_o be_v that_o it_o may_v run_v through_o the_o world_n and_o have_v a_o free_a passage_n in_o run_v the_o next_o be_v that_o it_o may_v be_v glorify_v the_o first_o be_v less_o than_o the_o other_o to_o wit_n to_o run_v to_o have_v a_o course_n the_o next_o be_v great_a to_o be_v glorify_v in_o run_v that_o be_v to_o say_v in_o run_v to_o be_v powerful_a to_o be_v mighty_a and_o effectual_a in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o hearer_n to_o turn_v they_o to_o god_n and_o to_o reform_v and_o renew_v they_o according_a to_o the_o image_n of_o god_n and_o so_o consequent_o to_o be_v glorify_v in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o world_n to_o make_v this_o more_o plain_a there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o the_o run_n of_o the_o gospel_n there_o be_v one_o sort_n when_o it_o run_v only_o through_o the_o mouth_n and_o ear_n of_o man_n and_o no_o further_o when_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o a_o bare_a hear_n

follow_v on_o and_o keep_v it_o in_o our_o hart_n there_o be_v two_o need_n of_o prayer_n one_o need_n of_o grace_n another_o need_n to_o keep_v the_o grace_n we_o have_v receive_v so_o there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o beg_v the_o first_o be_v for_o grace_n the_o next_o be_v for_o keep_v of_o the_o grace_n never_o weary_a to_o ask_v the_o lord_n will_v have_v thou_o ever_o beg_v ay_o say_v lord_n give_v i_o then_o say_v lord_n keep_v this_o grace_n thou_o have_v give_v i_o otherways_o i_o will_v lose_v it_o for_o i_o assure_v thou_o if_o the_o lord_n hand_n be_v not_o every_o moment_n hold_v grace_n in_o thy_o hart_n thou_o be_v ay_o ready_a to_o lose_v it_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v pray_v continual_o alas_o if_o we_o know_v what_o thing_n we_o be_v bind_v to_o we_o will_v
