unlawful_a 1._o we_o find_v that_o all_o the_o holy_a man_n of_o god_n according_a to_o their_o present_a need_n and_o occasion_n use_v to_o pray_v in_o the_o spirit_n through_o the_o help_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o god_n have_v shed_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o all_o his_o child_n without_o read_v or_o say_v by_o rote_n any_o number_n of_o word_n and_o for_o this_o we_o have_v

may_v perfect_o and_o entire_o worship_n god_n i_o say_v perform_v all_o the_o part_n of_o holy_a and_o spiritual_a worship_n and_o this_o appear_v by_o the_o constant_a and_o general_a practice_n of_o all_o the_o primitive_a church_n who_o true_o worship_v the_o lord_n many_o year_n before_o any_o such_o read_v stint_v service_n be_v devise_v or_o impose_v 3._o this_o external_a mean_n and_o

ghost_n that_o any_o certain_a form_n shall_v be_v repeat_v or_o read_v out_o of_o a_o prayer_n book_n for_o if_o it_o have_v they_o will_v have_v give_v commandment_n to_o the_o church_n for_o the_o practice_n thereof_o 4._o read_v of_o prayer_n in_o the_o act_n of_o prayer_n be_v direct_o contrary_a to_o that_o act_n and_o nature_n of_o prayer_n for_o in_o prayer_n we_o do_v pour_v out_o

admit_v matter_n from_o without_o to_o within_o that_o be_v from_o the_o book_n into_o our_o heart_n ergo_o etc._n etc._n 5._o the_o stint_a and_o devise_v form_n do_v quench_v the_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n and_o this_o appear_v in_o that_o man_n be_v so_o strict_o tie_v unto_o they_o as_o till_o they_o stint_v be_v out_o the_o spirit_n which_o the_o lord_n give_v his_o child_n may_v not_o suggest_v one_o thought_n or_o word_n otherwise_o neither_o when_o that_o be_v out_o any_o more_o than_o what_o next_o follow_v in_o the_o prescribe_a prayer_n and_o this_o be_v contrary_a to_o 1_o cor._n 12_o 7._o 6._o we_o find_v it_o promise_v that_o under_o the_o gospel_n the_o spirit_n shall_v be_v plentiful_o pour_v out_o which_o he_o daily_o gracious_o perform_v in_o furnish_v his_o child_n with_o spiritual_a gift_n who_o according_o pray_v or_o at_o least_o all_o may_v not_o with_o prescript_n word_n but_o with_o such_o as_o the_o spirit_n give_v they_o utterance_n god_n prepare_v their_o heart_n and_o bend_v his_o ear_n 7._o the_o truth_n bring_v forth_o no_o absurdity_n but_o this_o do_v 8.26_o for_o example_n the_o spirit_n say_v the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o all_o christian_n help_v our_o infirmity_n for_o we_o know_v not_o what_o to_o pray_v as_o we_o ought_v yes_o paul_n with_o your_o leave_n right_o well_o for_o we_o have_v in_o our_o liturgy_n what_o we_o
