everlasting_a thing_n so_o much_o talk_v off_o and_o so_o high_o magnify_v be_v they_o only_o idle_a name_n and_o be_v there_o no_o such_o thing_n indeed_o or_o be_v they_o so_o little_a worth_n the_o

for_o the_o three_o first_o petition_n seem_v chief_o refer_v to_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n in_o who_o all_o his_o attribute_n be_v equal_a and_o therefore_o in_o they_o we_o go_v as_o i_o may_v

petition_n we_o take_v a_o step_n high_o in_o the_o first_o we_o begin_v very_o low_a and_o ask_v as_o jacob_n do_v but_o only_a meat_n and_o raiment_n in_o the_o second_o we_o take_v a_o step_n high_o and_o ask_v a_o pardon_n of_o our_o fault_n in_o the_o three_o we_o go_v yet_o high_o and_o ask_v a_o absolute_a protection_n from_o all_o danger_n and_o deliverance_n from_o all_o evil_a wherein_o we_o may_v be_v say_v to_o have_v wrestle_v with_o the_o angel_n and_o obtain_v a_o blessing_n for_o this_o be_v the_o high_a step_n we_o can_v possible_o attain_v to_o in_o this_o mortal_a life_n but_o how_o do_v this_o step_n reach_v so_o high_a as_o jacob_n ladder_n which_o reach_v up_o to_o heaven_n mark_v therefore_o o_o my_o soul_n for_o have_v begin_v in_o humility_n it_o seem_v as_o if_o christ_n here_o shall_v say_v unto_o we_o friend_n sit_v up_o high_a for_o this_o step_n of_o our_o deliverance_n from_o evil_a seem_v to_o deliver_v we_o to_o heaven_n see_v it_o be_v

all_o this_o prayer_n shall_v we_o have_v for_o these_o thing_n no_o petition_n be_v it_o that_o we_o shall_v have_v they_o rather_o by_o the_o participation_n of_o christ_n then_o by_o the_o

deliverance_n from_o evil_a which_o be_v the_o high_a step_n we_o be_v capable_a of_o in_o this_o world_n imply_v a_o adhere_n to_o the_o deliverer_n himself_o in_o the_o world_n where_o we_o shall_v
