¶_o a_o book_n of_o prayer_n call_v y_o e_o ordynary_a fasshyon_n of_o good_a lyurnge_n mathewe_n vi_o ¶_o seek_v first_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o than_o all_o thing_n shall_v be_v lay_v

thanks_n but_o live_v here_o in_o earth_n idle_o &_o wretched_o as_o i_o may_v say_v this_o lytell_a book_n therefore_o shall_v be_v to_o put_v they_o in_o mind_n of_o a_o peace_n of_o their_o duty_n and_o to_o exhort_v they_o to_o use_v a_o ordinary_a fassyon_n of_o prayenge_a because_o they_o shall_v not_o forget_v their_o duty_n use_v therefore_o prayer_n at_o night_n &_o in_o the_o morning_n

these_o be_v to_o abominable_a to_o be_v speak_v of_o use_v therefore_o virtue_n &_o mean_n to_o attain_v grace_n which_o be_v these_o ☞_o repentance_n prayer_n restitucyon_n reconsylement_n alm_n and_o fast_a and_o special_o to_o exersyce_v that_o virtue_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o sin_n wherein_o you_o be_v most_o corrupt_v as_o shall_v be_v declare_v here_o after_o but_o now_o to_o return_v to_o my_o purpose_n of_o praise_v god_n &_o fear_v he_o let_v we_o consider_v the_o cause_n of_o our_o creacyon_n how_o that_o god_n have_v create_v we_o like_o to_o his_o own_o image_n and_o have_v give_v we_o a_o soul_n wit_v reason_n &_o understand_v more_o than_o he_o have_v do_v to_o other_o beast_n and_o why_o have_v he_o create_v man_n thus_o very_o nat_n because_o he_o shall_v only_o eat_v and_o drink_v and_o sleep_v and_o take_v his_o pleasure_n in_o this_o world_n like_o a_o swyny_n or_o a_o best_a or_o that_o he_o shall_v gather_v the_o good_n of_o this_o world_n together_o and_o stryve_v with_o his_o neighbour_n for_o y_o e_o giftꝭ_n and_o benefyte_n that_o god_n have_v send_v they_o like_a as_o doggꝭ_n do_v fight_v for_o a_o bone_n which_o their_o master_n have_v cast_v they_o or_o that_o he_o shall_v only_o follow_v or_o occupy_v his_o craft_n &_o scyence_n what_o so_o ever_o it_o be_v be_v it_o never_o so_o lawful_a and_o do_v nothing_o else_o nay_o god_n ordain_v not_o he_o therefore_o but_o he_o give_v he_o wit_n and_o reason_n because_o he_o shall_v praise_v his_o lord_n god_n as_o the_o angel_n do_v and_o gyve_v he_o thanks_n for_o all_o his_o benefyce_n and_o therefore_o he_o give_v we_o this_o commandment_n remember_v to_o keep_v holy_a thy_o saboth_n day_n as_o who_o shall_v say_v thou_o shall_v honour_v i_o i_o make_v the_o therefore_o this_o be_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n which_o if_o we_o mark_v well_o we_o may_v perceyve_v the_o cause_n of_o our_o creation_n let_v we_o therefore_o praise_n and_o magnyfye_v our_o lord_n god_n as_o our_o duty_n be_v and_o live_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o he_o let_v we_o fear_v he_o i_o say_v for_o he_o be_v the_o lord_n of_o power_n which_o utter_o abhor_v sin_n as_o it_o appear_v in_o y_z t_z he_o banish_v adam_n from_o the_o joy_n of_o paradyse_n because_o he_o agree_v to_o y_z e_z sin_n of_o eue._n also_o he_o cause_v almost_o y_a e_o hole_n world_n to_o be_v drown_v at_o noyes_n flood_n for_o sine_fw-la and_o at_o another_o time_n he_o cause_v fire_n &_o brimstone_n to_o rain_v down_o from_o heaven_n upon_o the_o cytye_n of_o sodoma_n and_o gomore_n for_o their_o wykednes_n and_o so_o the_o people_n there_o be_v brente_a &_o the_o cytye_n sink_v into_o the_o see_v yea_o true_o god_n hate_v sin_n so_o much_o that_o when_o chry_v be_v in_o the_o bosomme_n of_o his_o father_n do_v pray_v he_o to_o be_v favourable_a and_o to_o forgyve_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n yet_o he_o will_v not_o be_v entreat_v but_o cause_v his_o only_a son_n chry_v to_o come_v down_o into_o the_o world_n and_o to_o take_v man_n shape_n upon_o he_o and_o to_o suffer_v dethe_v he_o be_v without_o fault_n or_o sin_n for_o to_o redeem_v we_o wretched_a sinner_n so_o strayte_o do_v god_n look_v upon_o sign_n therefore_o let_v we_o fear_v he_o &_o love_v he_o let_v we_o love_v he_o i_o say_v because_o he_o make_v we_o and_o create_v we_o like_o to_o his_o own_o image_n &_o spare_v not_o his_o only_a son_n chry_v for_o our_o sake_n but_o send_v he_o down_o for_o to_o make_v we_o free_a and_o to_o redeem_v we_o when_o as_o our_o sin_n can_v not_o be_v take_v away_o by_o any_o other_o mean_n but_o only_o by_o he_o y_o it_o be_v without_o sin_n and_o let_v we_o love_v he_o also_o because_o he_o take_v we_o not_o away_o at_o y_z e_o worst_a out_n of_o this_o present_a life_n but_o suffer_v we_o to_o live_v that_o we_o may_v repent_v and_o ler_n ne_o to_o know_v he_o it_o be_v he_o also_o you_o e_o preserve_v us._n and_o daily_o gyve_v we_o meat_n and_o drink_v &_o all_o thing_n necessary_a to_o our_o lyve_n when_o we_o be_v sinner_n &_o do_v nothing_o deserve_v it_o yet_o do_v he_o preser_fw-ge we_o we_o then_o &_o hold_v his_o holy_a hand_n over_o we_o or_o else_o the_o devyl_n may_v tear_v we_o in_o piece_n as_o we_o go_v or_o we_o inyght_o syncke_v into_o the_o earth_n for_o our_o sin_n as_o we_o be_v well_o worthy_a but_o only_o that_o god_n be_v more_o merciful_a to_o we_o than_o we_o do_v deserve_v let_v we_o therefore_o praise_v he_o &_o love_n high_a for_o his_o great_a favour_n &_o mercy_n show_v to_o we_o so_o many_o way_n as_o in_o y_z t_z he_o have_v redeem_v we_o by_o his_o only_a son_n ne_fw-fr jesus_n chry_v and_o also_o have_v appoint_v y_o t_o y_fw-fr e_o self_n same_o chry_v our_o mercyful_a lord_n which_o suffer_v death_n for_o we_o shall_v be_v our_o judge_n at_o the_o great_a day_n of_o judgement_n here_o be_v comfort_n who_o can_v despair_v or_o what_o herte_n will_v not_o be_v in_o flame_v now_o to_o love_v god_n and_o to_o magnyfye_v he_o and_o thank_v he_o for_o all_o his_o benefyte_n and_o to_o keep_v his_o law_n even_o for_o very_o pure_a love_n consyder_v his_o great_a mercy_n and_o love_n toward_o we_o so_o many_o way_n or_o who_o will_v not_o fear_v he_o consyder_v the_o thing_n before_o rehearse_v therefore_o if_o thou_o haste_v either_o eye_n to_o rede_n this_o or_o ear_n to_o here_o it_o and_o understand_v for_o to_o perceyve_v it_o then_o consider_v who_o have_v give_v the_o these_o gift_n and_o who_o may_v punish_v y_fw-mi ●_o sudden_o and_o take_v they_o away_o again_o consider_v therefore_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n and_o cause_n of_o thy_o treation_n and_o praise_v he_o contynual_o and_o follow_v the_o example_n of_o holy_a man_n as_o davyd_v job._n danyell_n &_o dyvers_a other_o which_o use_v customable_o to_o make_v their_o prayer_n unto_o god_n at_o dyvers_a time_n both_o in_o the_o day_n and_o in_o the_o night_n because_o they_o will_v not_o forget_v their_o duty_n toward_o he_o as_o davyd_v say_v psal_n 42._o my_o herte_n be_v trouble_v at_o mydnyght_n and_o i_o call_v upon_o the_o lord_n and_o water_v my_o bed_n with_o y_z e_z tear_n of_o my_o eye_n also_o he_o say_v psal_n 54._o i_o will_v cry_v to_o god_n and_o my_o

lord_n will_v save_v i_o at_o night_n and_o in_o the_o morning_n &_o at_o mydday_n shall_v i_o pray_v herte_o unto_o he_o that_o he_o may_v here_o my_o voice_n lo_o here_o davyd_v do_v prescrybe_n three_o solemn_a time_n when_o a_o man_n ought_v to_o pray_v as_o at_o night_n when_o he_o go_v to_o bed_v in_o y_z e_z morning_n when_o he_o rise_v &_o at_o mydday_n when_o he_o go_v to_o meat_n danyell_n also_o the_o prophet_n use_v to_o pray_v three_o time_n in_o the_o day_n at_o who_o example_n the_o church_n do_v ordain_v the_o three_o hour_n which_o be_v song_n or_o say_v at_o this_o

let_v we_o take_v a_o example_n at_o they_o for_o to_o serve_v god_n in_o prayer_n twice_o a_o day_n at_o y_z e_z least_z y_z e_z be_v at_o evening_n &_o morning_n all_o business_n lay_v a_o side_n accord_v as_o i_o have_v exhort_v you_o before_o and_o it_o be_v convenyent_n that_o we_o shall_v also_o gyve_v thanks_n unto_o he_o at_o our_o meal_n time_n tor_z who_o will_v gyve_v a_o man_n his_o dyner_n and_o will_v not_o look_v to_o be_v thank_v of_o he_o for_o it_o or_o who_o will_v gyve_v a_o child_n but_o anapple_n and_o look_v not_o to_o have_v thanks_n for_o it_o much_o more_o be_v we_o bind_v to_o thank_v and_o magnyfie_v our_o lord_n god_n that_o fee_v we_o daily_o and_o ask_v none_o of_o our_o good_n for_o it_o who_o there_fw-mi therefore_o sytte_a down_o at_o his_o table_n except_o he_o be_v worse_o than_o a_o best_a and_o eat_v of_o the_o meat_n that_o god_n have_v send_v &_o not_o give_v he_o thanks_n for_o it_o or_o who_o dare_v rise_v in_o the_o morning_n and_o look_v upon_o the_o bright_a soon_o which_o god_n have_v create_v for_o to_o gyve_v light_n unto_o we_o &_o will_v not_o thank_v he_o for_o it_o or_o who_o dare_v go_v abroad_o in_o the_o world_n amongst_o his_o enemy_n and_o among_o the_o temptacyon_n of_o the_o devyl_n and_o will_v not_o call_v first_o upon_o god_n for_o help_v or_o who_o dare_v go_v to_o bed_v at_o night_n like_o a_o

whether_o he_o shall_v live_v till_o the_o next_o morrow_n or_o no_o let_v we_o therefore_o repent_v every_o hour_n &_o call_v upon_o god_n for_o mercy_n &_o trust_v only_o in_o he_o and_o let_v we_o take_v a_o example_n at_o these_o holy_a father_n to_o use_v a_o ordynary_a fasshyon_n of_o prayeng_v because_o we_o shall_v not_o forget_v our_o duty_n and_o chief_o let_v we_o follow_v the_o

y_z e_o sacrament_n of_o his_o most_o bless_a body_n he_o both_o pray_v and_o give_v thanks_n to_o his_o father_n in_o heaven_n and_o also_o he_o command_v his_o discyple_n and_o apostel_n to_o pray_v contynual_o lest_o they_o shall_v be_v lead_v into_o temptation_n let_v we_o therefore_o to_o low_a both_o his_o example_n &_o commandment_n if_o we_o will_v be_v call_v his_o discyple_n or_o crysten_v man_n and_o let_v we_o not_o lead_v our_o life_n like_o beast_n but_o like_o man_n and_o remember_v as_o i_o say_v first_o the_o cause_n of_o our_o creacyon_n and_o use_v a_o ordynary_a fasshyon_n of_o prayenge_a and_o although_o that_o i_o have_v appoint_v three_o time_n in_o the_o day_n for_o prayer_n as_o in_o the_o morning_n at_o mydday_n and_o at_o night_n as_o time_n most_o

to_o these_o three_o time_n only_o nor_o again_o i_o will_v not_o that_o any_o man_n shall_v think_v that_o i_o will_v bind_v he_o of_o necessyte_n to_o these_o three_o time_n a_o day_n as_o to_o a_o thing_n which_o may_v not_o be_v leave_v undo_v upon_o pain_n of_o utter_a damnacyon_n nay_o true_o i_o will_v not_o have_v any_o man_n so_o scrupulous_a but_o yet_o i_o will_v not_o have_v they_o leave_v it_o undo_v specyal_o at_o night_n and_o in_o the_o morning_n and_o although_o y_o it_o i_o ought_v not_o to_o teach_v other_o man_n but_o have_v more_o need_n to_o learn_v myself_o yet_o i_o may_v exhort_v they_o as_o one_o cristen_v man_n shall_v do_v a_o other_o for_o as_o this_o ordynary_a fasshyon_n of_o prayenge_a and_o such_o other_o tru_a that_o by_o my_o exortacyon_n they_o will_v
