be_v the_o lord_n but_o the_o lord_n himself_o do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o we_o must_v pray_v that_o all_o may_v be_v save_v what_o for_o those_o who_o god_n will_v not_o have_v save_v god_n forbid_v our_o saviour_n christ_n that_o be_v as_o wise_a and_o as_o charitable_a as_o they_o that_o hold_v this_o point_n have_v teach_v we_o to_o pray_v otherwise_o when_o you_o pray_v say_v thy_n will_v be_v do_v that_o be_v lord_n save_o those_o who_o thou_o will_v save_v and_o not_o who_o thou_o will_v not_o save_v so_o that_o our_o prayer_n we_o see_v must_v be_v ground_v upon_o god_n will_n and_o not_o upon_o our_o own_o will_n if_o then_o he_o will_v not_o save_v all_o we_o must_v not_o pray_v against_o his_o will_n that_o he_o will_v save_v all_o for_o then_o in_o stead_n of_o say_v thy_o will_n be_v do_v we_o shall_v pray_v thus_o or_o to_o this_o effect_n lord_n we_o know_v that_o thou_o have_v decree_v and_o appoint_v from_o everlasting_a who_o to_o glorify_v in_o thy_o

have_v a_o mind_n and_o desire_v to_o have_v all_o man_n save_v therefore_o alter_v thy_o decree_n and_o change_v thy_o purpose_n that_o be_v be_v contrary_a to_o thyself_o and_o so_o not_o thy_o will_n but_o we_o be_v do_v from_o such_o kind_n of_o pray_v or_o rather_o blasphemous_a and_o presumptuous_a prate_n the_o lord_n deliver_v we_o &_o give_v we_o grace_n to_o pray_v as_o his_o word_n do_v teach_v we_o to_o pray_v that_o be_v in_o our_o prayer_n to_o refer_v our_o will_n to_o god_n will_v and_o not_o to_o presume_v to_o crave_v that_o which_o god_n will_v never_o grant_v but_o for_o as_o much_o as_o god_n have_v his_o number_n in_o all_o part_n of_o the_o world_n who_o be_v know_v to_o himself_o and_o christian_a charity_n which_o be_v a_o most_o lively_a fruit_n of_o

sometime_o visible_a &_o sometime_o invisible_a unto_o man_n and_o sometime_o more_o visible_a and_o sometime_o less_o visible_a as_o in_o the_o day_n of_o elias_n when_o the_o lord_n have_v 7000._o in_o israel_n more_o than_o elias_n see_v as_o sharp_o sight_v as_o he_o be_v and_o because_o all_o be_v not_o call_v at_o one_o hour_n but_o some_o to_o day_n some_o to_o morrow_n some_o at_o one_o

god_n have_v his_o number_n and_o what_o can_v they_o tell_v whether_o he_o be_v one_o of_o that_o number_n or_o no_o therefore_o they_o be_v to_o pray_v for_o he_o there_o be_v a_o second_o sense_n
