to_o procure_v a_o blessing_n from_o he_o now_o i_o come_v to_o the_o three_o thing_n propound_v the_o reason_n why_o god_n require_v they_o and_o why_o they_o be_v so_o please_v unto_o he_o which_o

require_v this_o duty_n at_o our_o hand_n i_o will_v name_v but_o the_o chief_a be_v these_o first_o that_o we_o may_v acknowledge_v the_o property_n he_o have_v in_o the_o gift_n he_o bestow_v upon_o we_o otherwise_o we_o will_v forget_v in_o what_o tenure_n we_o hold_v those_o blessing_n we_o receive_v from_o his_o hand_n though_o therefore_o he_o be_v willing_a to_o bestow_v his_o benefit_n upon_o we_o yet_o he_o will_v have_v we_o ask_v they_o before_o he_o do_v it_o even_o as_o father_n do_v with_o their_o child_n though_o they_o intend_v to_o bestow_v such_o thing_n upon_o they_o as_o be_v needful_a yet_o they_o will_v have_v their_o child_n to_o ask_v they_o unless_o therefore_o we_o ask_v of_o god_n the_o thing_n which_o be_v he_o to_o give_v as_o we_o shall_v not_o receive_v what_o we_o have_v not_o so_o we_o can_v lawful_o use_v any_o thing_n we_o have_v second_o another_o reason_n be_v that_o we_o may_v be_v acquaint_v with_o god_n acquaint_v now_o thyself_o with_o

whereof_o we_o be_v justify_v and_o make_v righteous_a before_o god_n for_o without_o doubt_v the_o patriarch_n and_o legal_a church_n have_v some_o ordinary_a mean_a to_o know_v when_o their_o
