it_o come_v of_o a_o word_n that_o signify_v to_o supplicate_v from_o whence_o come_v suppliant_a prayer_n the_o ancient_a church_n be_v full_a of_o they_o as_o i_o can_v show_v which_o usual_o

of_o the_o people_n and_o interlocutary_a passage_n sol._n as_o for_o that_o i_o find_v that_o in_o the_o scripture_n god_n have_v command_v public_a prayer_n that_o be_v that_o presbyter_n and_o people_n shall_v pray_v but_o he_o have_v not_o command_v any_o form_n or_o manner_n to_o carry_v their_o prayer_n in_o but_o only_o that_o it_o be_v do_v to_o edification_n therefore_o he_o have_v leave_v that_o free_a to_o the_o wisdom_n and_o judgement_n of_o the_o governor_n and_o this_o we_o have_v often_o experience_n of_o that_o if_o a_o continue_a prayer_n be_v but_o half_a so_o long_o

that_o some_o part_n of_o the_o litany_n be_v so_o say_v that_o the_o reader_n show_v only_o what_o they_o must_v pray_v for_o and_o the_o people_n make_v the_o suit_n as_o when_o they_o say_v from_o
