a_o more_o public_a and_o general_a concern_v though_o the_o composer_n of_o our_o liturgy_n can_v not_o foresee_v the_o horrid_a powder-plot_n and_o the_o strange_a discovery_n of_o it_o the_o impious_a murder_n of_o the_o late_a king_n and_o the_o happy_a restoration_n of_o this_o yet_o upon_o the_o happen_v of_o those_o great_a event_n our_o church_n have_v always_o take_v care_n to_o provide_v such_o form_n of_o public_a prayer_n as_o be_v every_o way_n suitable_a to_o the_o case_n and_o as_o for_o those_o extraordinary_a case_n which_o may_v be_v foresee_v because_o they_o happen_v more_o frequent_o in_o the_o course_n of_o thing_n such_o as_o want_v of_o rain_n or_o fair_a wether_n dearth_n and_o war_n plague_n and_o sickness_n there_o may_v be_v form_n compose_v for_o they_o aforehand_o as_o there_o be_v in_o our_o church_n liturgy_n so_o that_o it_o be_v no_o argument_n at_o all_o against_o public_a form_n that_o they_o can_v make_v a_o due_a provision_n for_o extraordinary_a case_n and_o event_n for_o before_o they_o happen_v extempore_o prayer_n can_v no_o more_o make_v due_a provision_n for_o they_o than_o form_n and_o after_o they_o happen_v as_o due_a a_o provision_n may_v be_v make_v for_o they_o by_o form_n as_o by_o extempore_o prayer_n 3._o that_o suppose_v such_o provision_n for_o extraordinary_a case_n be_v not_o or_o can_v be_v make_v in_o the_o public_a form_n yet_o that_o be_v no_o argument_n why_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v use_v so_o far_o forth_o as_o it_o comprehend_v the_o main_a of_o the_o common_a case_n and_o necessity_n of_o the_o people_n for_o as_o i_o show_v before_o the_o main_a matter_n of_o public_a prayer_n may_v be_v much_o more_o full_o comprehend_v in_o a_o study_a form_n than_o it_o can_v reasonable_o be_v suppose_v to_o be_v in_o a_o extempore_o prayer_n in_o which_o in_o all_o probability_n there_o will_v be_v more_o omission_n as_o to_o what_o respect_v the_o ordinary_a case_n of_o christian_n than_o there_o be_v in_o the_o public_a form_n as_o to_o what_o respect_v their_o extraordinary_a case_n so_o that_o if_o the_o form_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v use_v because_o it_o extend_v not_o always_o to_o all_o their_o extraordinary_a case_n for_o the_o same_o reason_n extempore_o prayer_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v use_v because_o it_o extend_v not_o always_o to_o all_o their_o ordinary_a case_n but_o since_o as_o have_v be_v prove_v at_o large_a the_o use_n of_o form_n be_v upon_o sundry_a account_n of_o great_a advantage_n to_o the_o public_a devotion_n it_o be_v very_o reasonable_a that_o they_o shall_v be_v use_v so_o far_o forth_o as_o they_o can_v and_o do_v express_v the_o common_a case_n and_o necessity_n and_o that_o the_o people_n shall_v not_o be_v deprive_v of_o the_o benefit_n of_o join_v with_o they_o in_o the_o main_a matter_n of_o public_a prayer_n because_o such_o extraordinary_a matter_n may_v occur_v as_o either_o be_v not_o or_o can_v be_v express_v in_o they_o especial_o when_o 4._o the_o defect_n of_o such_o new_a provision_n for_o extraordinary_a case_n may_v be_v supply_v by_o the_o minister_n in_o a_o public_a prayer_n of_o his_o own_o for_o as_o i_o observe_v before_o our_o church_n allow_v or_o at_o least_n permit_v the_o minister_n to_o use_v a_o prayer_n of_o his_o own_o composure_n in_o the_o pulpit_n in_o which_o if_o any_o extraordinary_a mercy_n or_o judgement_n for_o which_o there_o be_v no_o provision_n in_o our_o liturgy_n happen_v to_o the_o place_n he_o live_v in_o there_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o he_o may_v and_o aught_o to_o supply_v the_o devotion_n of_o his_o people_n with_o such_o confession_n petition_n and_o thanksgiving_n as_o be_v proper_a and_o suitable_a to_o the_o occasion_n and_o where_o this_o be_v allow_v of_o or_o permit_v the_o non-provision_n for_o such_o extraordinary_a case_n in_o the_o establish_a liturgy_n can_v be_v no_o bar_n at_o all_o against_o the_o use_n of_o it_o provide_v its_o prayer_n be_v good_a and_o comprehend_v all_o ordinary_a matter_n of_o prayer_n it_o be_v sufficient_o provide_v for_o ordinary_a public_a devotion_n and_o so_o far_o doubtless_o may_v be_v lawful_o use_v sufficient_a provision_n be_v otherwise_o make_v for_o all_o those_o extraordinary_a matter_n which_o it_o do_v not_o or_o can_v not_o comprehend_v the_o sum_n of_o all_o therefore_o be_v this_o that_o as_o for_o the_o ordinary_a and_o main_a matter_n of_o public_a prayer_n they_o may_v be_v more_o full_o and_o distinct_o comprehend_v in_o a_o form_n than_o in_o a_o extempore_o prayer_n and_o as_o for_o those_o new_a matter_n which_o extraordinary_a public_a emergency_n do_v administer_v they_o may_v for_o the_o generality_n be_v as_o well_o comprehend_v in_o a_o new_a

composure_n case_n v._o whether_o there_o be_v any_o warrant_n for_o form_n of_o prayer_n in_o scripture_n or_o pure_a antiquity_n in_o which_o case_n there_o be_v two_o inquiry_n to_o be_v make_v 1._o whether_o there_o be_v any_o warrant_n for_o form_n of_o prayer_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n 2._o whether_o there_o be_v any_o evidence_n of_o the_o public_a use_n of_o they_o in_o the_o primitive_a and_o pure_a age_n of_o the_o church_n 1._o whether_o there_o be_v any_o warrant_n for_o the_o use_n of_o form_n of_o prayer_n in_o holy_a scripture_n where_o by_o warrant_n must_v be_v mean_v either_o first_o positive_a command_n or_o second_o allow_v example_n for_o upon_o both_o these_o our_o brethren_n insist_v first_o they_o require_v we_o to_o produce_v some_o positive_a command_n upon_o this_o pretence_n that_o nothing_o ought_v to_o be_v use_v in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n but_o what_o be_v command_v by_o he_o which_o how_o true_a it_o be_v be_v not_o my_o present_a business_n to_o inquire_v that_o be_v do_v already_o to_o excellent_a purpose_n in_o the_o case_n about_o indifferent_a thing_n but_o because_o upon_o this_o pretence_n our_o brethren_n reject_v the_o use_n of_o form_n as_o unlawful_a i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o prove_v these_o two_o thing_n 1._o that_o suppose_v this_o pretence_n be_v true_a yet_o it_o do_v not_o conclude_v against_o the_o use_n of_o form_n 2._o that_o suppose_v it_o do_v conclude_v against_o the_o use_n of_o form_n it_o equal_o conclude_v against_o conceive_v or_o extempore_o prayer_n 1._o that_o suppose_v this_o pretence_n be_v true_a viz._n that_o what_o be_v not_o command_v by_o god_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v use_v in_o his_o worship_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o conclude_v against_o the_o use_n of_o form_n for_o though_o we_o do_v not_o pretend_v that_o god_n have_v anywhere_o command_v we_o to_o pray_v to_o he_o by_o form_n and_o no_o otherwise_o or_o that_o all_o the_o prayer_n which_o we_o at_o any_o time_n offer_v to_o he_o shall_v be_v first_o compose_v into_o a_o form_n yet_o we_o do_v assert_v that_o he_o have_v enjoin_v some_o form_n to_o be_v use_v and_o offer_v up_o in_o prayer_n though_o together_o with_o those_o particular_a form_n we_o grant_v there_o may_v be_v and_o doubtless_o sometime_o be_v other_o prayer_n to_o be_v offer_v up_o to_o he_o thus_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n we_o read_v of_o sundry_a form_n of_o prayer_n enjoin_v to_o be_v use_v by_o god_n himself_o and_o which_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n by_o person_n immediate_o inspire_v so_o numb_a 6._o 23_o 24_o 25_o 26._o on_o this_o wise_a or_o thus_o shall_v aaron_n and_o his_o son_n bless_v the_o child_n of_o israel_n say_v unto_o they_o the_o lord_n bless_v thou_o and_o keep_v thou_o the_o

my_o lord_n adonai_n be_v of_o the_o same_o signification_n by_o which_o name_n it_o be_v never_o unlawful_a to_o call_v god_n but_o because_o the_o idol_n be_v call_v baal_n god_n abhor_v it_o

i_o say_v that_o god_n do_v not_o in_o the_o former_a verse_n give_v the_o jew_n a_o prohibition_n no_o more_o to_o call_v he_o baali_n but_o make_v they_o a_o gracious_a promise_n that_o they_o

the_o critic_n will_v tell_v you_o which_o be_v as_o much_o as_o to_o say_v there_o shall_v no_o more_o be_v a_o occasion_n give_v you_o from_o my_o severe_a usage_n of_o you_o to_o call_v i_o by_o

impertinency_n of_o your_o answer_n to_o this_o passage_n which_o be_v this_o that_o the_o people_n now_o be_v more_o devout_o incline_v i_o very_o much_o doubt_n i_o be_o sure_a they_o have_v much_o more_o reason_n than_o than_o now_o to_o be_v averse_a to_o it_o have_v more_o miraculous_a operation_n and_o extraordinary_a appearance_n of_o god_n to_o they_o than_o we_o can_v pretend_v to_o and_o i_o be_o sure_a the_o heart_n of_o all_o be_v by_o nature_n now_o as_o bad_a as_o then_o but_o 1._o do_v it_o argue_v that_o our_o people_n be_v more_o devout_o incline_v than_o the_o jew_n be_v because_o they_o be_v not_o so_o incline_v to_o idolatry_n man_n that_o have_v nothing_o of_o devotion_n in_o their_o temper_n may_v have_v no_o inclination_n at_o all_o to_o some_o certain_a vice_n

than_o we_o have_v among_o we_o 3._o what_o though_o our_o heart_n be_v as_o bad_a by_o nature_n as_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o ancient_a jew_n be_v must_v we_o needs_o be_v therefore_o as_o much_o
