and_o he_o shall_v hear_v my_o voice_n psal_n 55.17_o in_o the_o beginning_n and_o in_o the_o middle_n and_o in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o day_n prayer_n have_v its_o season_n for_o it_o be_v the_o

unless_o we_o shall_v have_v so_o many_o tear_n as_o for_o they_o we_o can_v not_o speak_v tear_n with_o prayer_n do_v excellent_o they_o make_v our_o prayer_n more_o fluent_a and_o our_o voice_n more_o liquid_a and_o more_o acceptable_a to_o heaven_n the_o very_a heathen_a give_v his_o good_a word_n of_o mourn_a man_n that_o they_o be_v good_a man_n god_n give_v we_o tear_n only_o for_o sin_n

in_o regard_n of_o trade_n and_o family_n we_o may_v conclude_v it_o not_o fit_a to_o leave_v the_o particular_a call_n upon_o that_o account_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o if_o the_o four_o

even_o in_o time_n of_o public_a service_n to_o leave_v the_o church_n to_o quench_v a_o fire_n or_o to_o be_v helpful_a to_o any_o in_o a_o necessity_n if_o thou_o be_v therefore_o a_o christian_a

the_o three_o question_n somewhat_o be_v to_o be_v say_v beside_o what_o have_v be_v say_v we_o touch_v former_o the_o duty_n of_o hear_v minister_n as_o they_o be_v compare_v with_o minister_n and_o we_o think_v it_o not_o arbitrary_a to_o we_o whether_o we_o will_v hear_v those_o which_o be_v appoint_v to_o we_o although_o they_o be_v not_o so_o excellent_a as_o other_o but_o now_o we_o compare_v minister_n with_o those_o who_o be_v by_o a_o very_a long_a prescription_n even_o from_o ignatius_n time_n call_v laique_n or_o layman_n and_o the_o question_n be_v whether_o we_o shall_v hear_v layman_n preach_v this_o be_v a_o question_n of_o the_o season_n but_o this_o be_v not_o necessary_a for_o i_o to_o determine_v it_o be_v enough_o here_o that_o it_o be_v no_o question_n whether_o we_o shall_v hear_v minister_n i_o think_v also_o by_o their_o own_o confession_n then_o if_o other_o be_v wise_a to_o make_v sure_a of_o their_o duty_n they_o will_v hear_v minister_n and_o not_o they_o because_o there_o be_v no_o doubt_n of_o the_o one_o but_o there_o be_v as_o great_a doubt_n of_o the_o other_o or_o if_o you_o will_v let_v it_o be_v out_o of_o doubt_n in_o the_o negative_a state_n the_o case_n and_o take_v it_o that_o it_o be_v no_o act_n of_o piety_n for_o any_o of_o the_o people_n to_o hear_v they_o be_v plain_a upon_o their_o own_o principle_n at_o least_o most_o of_o they_o who_o be_v most_o sober_a because_o they_o say_v they_o do_v not_o preach_v authoritative_o and_o if_o not_o authoritative_o than_o not_o by_o any_o command_n if_o not_o by_o any_o command_n than_o it_o be_v no_o act_n of_o piety_n for_o they_o to_o preach_v or_o if_o it_o be_v a_o act_n of_o piety_n without_o any_o command_n than_o it_o be_v a_o will-worship_n which_o they_o so_o much_o impute_v to_o the_o church_n of_o england_n but_o then_o the_o question_n will_v be_v whether_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o hear_v they_o this_o may_v be_v also_o resolve_v by_o their_o own_o

this_o also_o be_v not_o to_o be_v do_v upon_o the_o same_o reason_n because_o they_o be_v not_o command_v it_o but_o they_o do_v it_o as_o a_o action_n of_o a_o free_a spirit_n and_o not_o of_o supererogation_n but_o perfection_n this_o be_v but_o a_o perstriction_n of_o the_o irregular_a practice_n of_o those_o who_o undertake_v to_o preach_v before_o they_o know_v the_o text_n and_o therefore_o be_v not_o like_a to_o understand_v what_o they_o say_v of_o what_o our_o saviour_n in_o the_o revel_n 1.8_o call_v himself_o the_o alpha_n and_o omega_n be_v it_o fit_a that_o those_o
