first_o lesson_n that_o our_o saviour_n do_v give_v his_o disciple_n that_o they_o must_v deny_v themselves_o and_o follow_v he_o 2_o the_o second_o thing_n be_v the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n will_v

heaven_n by_o heaven_n here_o be_v mean_v the_o soul_n of_o faithful_a man_n depart_v and_o the_o elect_a angel_n psal._n 103_o 20._o praise_v the_o lord_n you_o his_o angel_n that_o excel_v in_o

they_o do_v the_o will_n of_o god_n willing_o speedy_o and_o faithful_o and_o this_o be_v signify_v in_o that_o they_o be_v say_v in_o the_o scripture_n to_o be_v wing_v and_o to_o stand_v continual_o behold_v the_o face_n of_o our_o heavenly_a father_n and_o this_o be_v the_o manner_n in_o which_o we_o desire_v to_o perform_v god_n will_n 2._o the_o want_v to_o be_v bewail_v we_o be_v here_o

other_o want_v which_o break_v out_o when_o we_o be_v in_o do_v god_n will_n there_o be_v no_o servant_n of_o god_n but_o have_v want_n in_o his_o best_a work_n so_o we_o must_v understand_v paul_n ro._n 7._o 18._o he_o say_v as_o much_o as_o if_o he_o can_v begin_v a_o good_a thing_n but_o not_o perfect_v it_o &_o go_v through_o stitch_n as_o we_o say_v when_o the_o godly_a do_v good_a work_n

to_o come_v to_o perfection_n give_v we_o this_o day_n our_o daily_a bread_n 1_o the_o coherence_n thus_o much_o of_o the_o three_o first_o petition_n which_o concern_v god_n now_o follow_v the_o

to_o be_v read_v and_o sing_v with_o these_o caveat_n 1._o we_o be_v to_o use_v those_o imprecation_n indefinite_o against_o the_o enemy_n of_o god_n and_o his_o church_n for_o we_o may_v persuade_v
