of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n the_o church_n be_v call_v a_o communion_n of_o saint_n and_o we_o be_v knit_v together_o vinculo_fw-la amoris_fw-la with_o the_o bond_n of_o love_n there_o be_v

three_o petition_n in_o the_o first_o table_n of_o the_o lord_n prayer_n do_v maintain_v this_o for_o 1_o herein_o we_o solicit_v our_o god_n for_o the_o honour_n of_o his_o own_o name_n &_o the_o

his_o kingdom_n of_o power_n be_v over_o all_o the_o world_n but_o his_o kingdom_n of_o grace_n be_v the_o holiness_n of_o his_o church_n only_o and_o his_o kingdom_n of_o glory_n be_v the_o crown_n

with_o god_n in_o all_o please_a 2_o in_o respect_n of_o our_o neighbour_n we_o consider_v ourselves_o as_o member_n one_o of_o another_o &_o so_o the_o welfare_n of_o the_o member_n depend_v on_o the_o welfare_n of_o the_o body_n every_o one_o good_a aught_o to_o be_v as_o precious_a to_o we_o as_o much_o desire_v of_o we_o as_o our_o own_o god_n be_v rich_a in_o mercy_n and_o we_o need_v
