wherefore_o whosoever_o thou_o be_v before_o thou_o pray_v with_o faith_n and_o effectual_o they_o heart_n must_v be_v inflame_v with_o the_o memory_n of_o the_o benefit_n which_o god_n have_v

unto_o he_o before_o we_o pray_v but_o he_o also_o do_v send_v we_o that_o which_o we_o ask_v whereunto_o i_o answer_v the_o apostle_n adjoin_v this_o that_o he_o may_v teach_v of_o what_o sort_n true_a prayer_n ought_v to_o be_v god_n we_o must_v not_o pray_v at_o adventure_n but_o be_v certain_o persuade_v that_o we_o shall_v be_v hear_v of_o god_n to_o wit_n assure_v and_o have_a

whether_o god_n hear_v or_o not_o yea_o rather_o believe_v that_o he_o do_v not_o hear_v which_o undouted_o be_v not_o to_o pray_v or_o to_o ask_v of_o god_n but_o to_o tempt_v and_o mock_v god_n for_o if_o any_o man_n do_v desire_v money_n of_o i_o who_o i_o certain_o know_v not_o to_o persuade_v himself_o that_o he_o shall_v receive_v it_o i_o can_v not_o suffer_v such_o a_o asker_n of_o who_o i_o may_v assure_v myself_o to_o be_v mock_v how_o much_o more_o be_v god_n offend_v at_o our_o much_o cry_v out_o and_o babble_a when_o we_o do_v continual_o babble_n much_o &_o cry_v out_o &_o do_v not_o think_v at_o all_o whether_o he_o hear_v us._n learn_v therefore_o here_o god_n how_o our_o petition_n be_v show_v unto_o god_n that_o they_o petition_n must_v be_v show_v unto_o god_n that_o be_v that_o thou_o must_v so_o ask_v that_o thou_o doubt_v not_o that_o they_o petition_n be_v know_v and_o accept_v of_o god_n and_o believe_v certain_o that_o thou_o shall_v obtain_v what_o

the_o smoke_n carry_v the_o savour_n upward_o from_o the_o censer_n so_o faith_n carry_v the_o petition_n of_o the_o believer_n into_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n whereby_o we_o assure_o believe_v that_o our_o petition_n shall_v come_v unto_o god_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v undouted_o obtain_v those_o thing_n that_o we_o ask_v paul_n by_o these_o word_n be_v show_v do_v undouted_o mean_a that_o which_o be_v eftsoon_o in_o the_o psalm_n god_n have_v hear_v my_o petition_n give_v ear_n lord_n unto_o my_o prayer_n and_o such_o like_a hereof_o christ_n speak_v matth_n 21_o and_o mar._n 11._o whatsoever_o you_o shall_v ask_v in_o prayer_n if_o you_o believe_v you_o shall_v receive_v it_o and_o james_n say_v chap._n 1_n ask_v in_o faith_n and_o waver_v not_o for_o he_o that_o waver_v shall_v receive_v nothing_o of_o the_o lord_n who_o may_v not_o now_o hereof_o perceive_v that_o that_o much_o babble_n and_o cry_v out_o which_o be_v make_v common_o through_o the_o world_n in_o monastery_n be_v a_o mock_v and_o delude_v of_o god_n the_o prayer_n of_o these_o if_o they_o may_v be_v call_v prayer_n be_v abundant_o show_v before_o man_n for_o they_o cry_v out_o and_o babble_n too_o much_o but_o there_o be_v no_o regard_n of_o they_o with_o god_n they_o be_v not_o know_v of_o he_o neither_o come_v they_o unto_o his_o ear_n that_o be_v he_o do_v by_o no_o mean_n hear_v they_o for_o that_o they_o do_v not_o believe_v or_o be_v assure_v that_o their_o cry_v out_o or_o much_o babble_n be_v hear_v of_o god_n wherefore_o as_o they_o believe_v so_o do_v they_o receive_v it_o be_v time_n therefore_o long_o since_o that_o those_o mockinge_n and_o blasphemy_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v abolish_v but_o if_o we_o pray_v as_o we_o be_v here_o teach_v there_o shall_v be_v nothing_o sure_o which_o we_o may_v not_o obtain_v not_o why_o we_o oftentimes_o pray_v and_o receive_v not_o now_o we_o pray_v for_o many_o thing_n continual_o and_o receive_v nothing_o neither_o be_v it_o any_o marvel_n see_v we_o pray_v so_o that_o our_o petition_n be_v not_o show_v unto_o god_n for_o that_o we_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o they_o be_v manifest_a unto_o he_o wo_n to_o our_o
