1._o supplication_n be_v that_o whereby_o we_o deprecate_v evil_a whether_o of_o iniquity_n or_o calamity_n the_o remission_n of_o the_o one_o the_o prevention_n and_o remotion_n of_o the_o other_o

against_o all_o sort_n of_o evil_n which_o we_o either_o feel_v or_o fear_v 2._o prayer_n be_v that_o by_o which_o we_o implore_v those_o good_a thing_n whereof_o we_o stand_v in_o need_n and_o more_o especial_o those_o which_o concern_v our_o eternal_a welfare_n upon_o this_o account_n prayer_n be_v not_o only_o our_o armour_n to_o preserve_v but_o onr_a store-house_n to_o provide_v for_o we_o or_o rather_o the_o key_n which_o open_v the_o store-house_n of_o heaven_n whence_o every_o good_a and_o perfect_a gift_n come_v 3._o intercession_n be_v that_o whereby_o we_o perform_v both_o these_o act_n of_o petition_n in_o the_o behalf_n of_o other_o faith_n be_v appropriative_a but_o prayer_n be_v communicative_a that_o as_o a_o hand_n clasp_v this_o as_o a_o hand_n open_a and_o therefore_o

hardly_o pray_v for_o other_o and_o as_o our_o charity_n so_o our_o piety_n must_v begin_v at_o home_n but_o it_o must_v not_o end_v there_o we_o must_v love_v other_o and_o pray_v for_o other_o as_o well_o as_o our_o self_n our_o own_o need_n engage_v we_o to_o be_v petitioner_n for_o our_o self_n and_o brotherly_a love_n oblige_v we_o to_o be_v advocate_n for_o other_o indeed_o meritorious_a

pray_v one_o for_o another_o 2._o look_v upon_o these_o three_o word_n as_o synonymous_a and_o then_o we_o may_v with_o calvin_n conceive_v loc_n that_o these_o multiply_a expression_n to_o the_o same_o purpose_n as_o also_o the_o put_v they_o in_o the_o plural_a number_n be_v design_v to_o mind_v we_o of_o the_o frequent_a performance_n of_o this_o duty_n that_o it_o must_v not_o be_v do_v
