therefore_o in_o this_o place_n be_v manifest_v a_o other_o fault_n of_o ignorant_a people_n they_o cry_v often_o lord_n help_v i_o lord_n have_v mercy_n upon_o i_o but_o in_o who_o name_n pray_v they_o poor_a soul_n like_o blind_a bayarde_n they_o rush_v upon_o the_o lord_n they_o know_v no_o mediator_n in_o who_o name_n they_o shall_v present_v their_o prayer_n unto_o he_o little_o do_v

effectual_o who_o doubt_v whether_o he_o shall_v obtain_v it_o or_o no_o wherefore_o it_o be_v a_o especial_a point_n of_o prayer_n to_o be_v persuade_v that_o god_n to_o who_o prayer_n be_v make_v not_o only_o can_v but_o also_o will_v grant_v his_o request_n mark_v 11._o 24._o whatsoever_o you_o desire_v when_o you_o pray_v believe_v that_o you_o shall_v have_v it_o and_o it_o shall_v be_v

that_o god_n will_v grant_v the_o thing_n desire_v the_o ground_n of_o this_o faith_n be_v reconciliation_n with_o god_n &_o the_o assurance_n thereof_o for_o unless_o a_o man_n be_v in_o conscience_n in_o some_o measure_n persuade_v that_o all_o his_o sin_n be_v pardon_v and_o that_o he_o stand_v reconcile_v to_o god_n in_o christ_n he_o can_v believe_v any_o other_o promise_v reveal_v in_o the_o

pray_v you_o thus_o see_v our_o saviour_n command_v his_o disciple_n and_o so_o even_o we_o also_o to_o pray_v to_o god_n it_o be_v our_o duty_n not_o only_o to_o present_v our_o prayer_n to_o god_n

if_o thou_o be_v a_o ignorant_a man_n for_o shame_n learn_v to_o pray_v see_v it_o be_v god_n commandment_n make_v conscience_n of_o it_o we_o see_v that_o there_o be_v no_o man_n unless_o he_o be_v

direct_o against_o god_n the_o other_o against_o man_n this_o sin_n because_o it_o be_v against_o the_o first_o table_n and_o therefore_o more_o hard_a to_o be_v discern_v it_o be_v light_o esteem_v and_o it_o less_o trouble_v the_o conscience_n of_o ignorant_a man_n yet_o as_o it_o be_v indeed_o so_o it_o be_v to_o be_v esteem_v as_o a_o disgrace_n &_o plain_a mockery_n of_o god_n majesty_n wherefore_o see_v god_n be_v in_o heaven_n away_o with_o all_o drowsy_a and_o dead_a pray_v let_v we_o come_v with_o reverence_n in_o our_o heart_n before_o the_o lord_n 4._o again_o we_o be_v here_o to_o consider_v that_o our_o heart_n in_o prayer_n must_v mount_v up_o into_o heaven_n and_o there_o be_v present_a with_o the_o lord_n psal._n 25._o 1._o unto_o thou_o o_o lord_n lift_v i_o up_o my_o

last_o this_o preface_n show_v that_o god_n be_v all_o sufficient_a as_o in_o all_o other_o thing_n so_o in_o grant_v our_o request_n god_n be_v willing_a to_o hear_v our_o prayer_n in_o that_o he_o be_v our_o father_n &_o able_a to_o perform_v they_o because_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n &_o therefore_o almighty_a hallow_a be_v thy_o name_n 1._o the_o coherence_n thus_o much_o of_o the_o preface_n now_o follow_v the_o petition_n they_o be_v six_o in_o number_n the_o three_o first_o concern_v god_n and_o his_o glory_n the_o other_o three_o concern_v ourselves_o the_o three_o former_a petition_n be_v again_o divide_v into_o two_o part_n the_o first_o concern_v god_n glory_n itself_o the_o other_o two_o the_o mean_n whereby_o god_n glory_n be_v manifest_v and_o enlarge_v among_o man_n for_o god_n his_o name_n be_v glorify_v among_o man_n when_o his_o kingdom_n do_v come_v and_o his_o will_n be_v do_v question_n why_o be_v this_o petition_n hallow_a be_v thy_o name_n set_v in_o the_o first_o place_n answer_n because_o god_n glory_n must_v be_v prefer_v before_o all_o thing_n because_o it_o be_v the_o end_n of_o all_o creature_n and_o of_o all_o the_o counsel_n of_o god_n prou._n 16._o 4._o the_o lord_n have_v make_v all_o thing_n for_o his_o own_o sake_n yea_o even_o the_o wicked_a for_o the_o day_n of_o evil_a and_o from_o the_o order_n of_o the_o petition_n here_o arise_v a_o worthy_a instruction_n namely_o that_o every_o one_o in_o all_o thing_n they_o take_v in_o hand_n be_v to_o propound_v to_o themselves_o and_o to_o intend_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n the_o reason_n be_v this_o the_o end_n which_o god_n have_v appoint_v to_o all_o our_o do_n we_o be_v to_o propound_v to_o ourselves_o but_o god_n have_v appoint_v that_o the_o high_a end_n of_o all_o our_o do_n shall_v be_v his_o glory_n therefore_o our_o heart_n must_v be_v set_v to_o seek_v it_o first_o of_o all_o that_o god_n will_v have_v his_o name_n glorify_v by_o we_o appear_v in_o this_o that_o he_o punish_v those_o which_o of_o obstinacy_n set_v themselves_o to_o dishonour_v he_o or_o by_o negligence_n do_v not_o sanctify_v he_o when_o they_o shall_v have_v do_v so_o herod_n sit_v in_o his_o royalty_n make_v such_o a_o oration_n that_o the_o people_n cry_v the_o voice_n of_o a_o god_n and_o not_o of_o a_o man_n and_o immediate_o the_o angel_n of_o the_o lord_n smite_v he_o because_o he_o give_v not_o the_o glory_n to_o god_n act._n 12._o 23._o and_o moses_n because_o he_o do_v not_o sanctify_v the_o lord_n in_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n therefore_o he_o come_v not_o into_o the_o land_n of_o promise_n yet_o he_o do_v but_o fail_v in_o do_v of_o it_o thus_o we_o may_v see_v by_o these_o punishment_n and_o also_o by_o the_o order_n of_o the_o petition_n that_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o prefer_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n before_o all_o thing_n else_o quest._n whether_o be_v we_o to_o prefer_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n before_o the_o salvation_n of_o our_o soul_n answer_n if_o the_o case_n stand_v thus_o that_o god_n name_n must_v be_v dishonour_v or_o our_o soul_n condemn_v we_o must_v account_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n more_o precious_a than_o the_o salvation_n of_o our_o soul_n this_o be_v manifest_a in_o the_o order_n of_o the_o petition_n the_o petition_n that_o concern_v god_n glory_n be_v first_o and_o the_o petition_n that_o concern_v direct_o our_o salvation_n be_v the_o five_o and_o sixth_o where_o by_o we_o be_v teach_v that_o before_o god_n shall_v want_v any_o part_n of_o his_o glory_n we_o be_v to_o let_v soul_n and_o all_o go_v and_o let_v god_n have_v all_o his_o glory_n this_o affection_n have_v moses_n exod._n 32._o 32._o when_o he_o say_v either_o forgive_v they_o or_o if_o thou_o will_v not_o blot_v my_o name_n out_o of_o thy_o book_n in_o this_o petition_n as_o also_o in_o the_o rest_n we_o must_v observe_v three_o thing_n the_o first_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o word_n the_o second_o the_o want_n which_o man_n must_v learn_v to_o bewail_v the_o three_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n that_o be_v to_o be_v desire_v 2._o the_o meaning_n very_o few_o among_o the_o people_n can_v give_v the_o right_a meaning_n of_o the_o word_n of_o this_o prayer_n they_o pretend_v that_o see_v god_n know_v their_o good_a meaning_n it_o be_v sufficient_a for_o they_o to_o say_v the_o word_n and_o to_o mean_v well_o but_o faith_n be_v one_o of_o the_o ground_n of_o prayer_n &_o there_o be_v no_o faith_n without_o knowledge_n neither_o can_v there_o be_v prayer_n without_o knowledge_n and_o therefore_o ignorant_a man_n be_v to_o learn_v the_o right_a meaning_n of_o the_o word_n name_n name_v in_o this_o place_n signify_v 1._o god_n himself_o 1._o king_n 5._o 5._o he_o shall_v build_v a_o house_n

as_o man_n be_v know_v by_o their_o name_n and_o as_o all_o a_o man_n praise_n &_o glory_n lie_v in_o his_o name_n so_o all_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n be_v in_o these_o hallow_a to_o hallowe_a be_v

manner_n of_o way_n question_n how_o can_v a_o sinful_a man_n hallow_v god_n name_n which_o be_v pure_a and_o holy_a in_o itself_o answer_n we_o do_v not_o here_o pray_v that_o we_o may_v make_v god_n name_n holy_a but_o that_o we_o may_v be_v mean_n to_o declare_v and_o make_v manifest_a to_o the_o world_n by_o the_o right_a usage_n of_o it_o that_o it_o be_v holy_a and_o pure_a and_o honourable_a
