wherefore_o our_o heart_n burn_v not_o in_o that_o love_n where_o in_o they_o ought_v to_o burn_v towards_o god_n proceed_v from_o this_o that_o we_o considder_fw-mi so_o slightlie_o his_o benefit_n

wherefore_o to_o the_o end_n that_o any_o man_n may_v earnest_o love_v the_o lord_n his_o prayer_n ought_v to_o be_v continual_a for_o of_o continual_a prayer_n and_o supplication_n continual_a
