why_o the_o godly_a pray_v so_o much_o for_o other_o they_o be_v oft_o in_o their_o family_n prayer_n in_o their_o more_o private_a prayer_n they_o pray_v for_o their_o family_n for_o their_o child_n for_o their_o servant_n for_o their_o friend_n for_o the_o parish_n wherein_o they_o live_v because_o they_o know_v what_o mercy_n be_v whereas_o carnal_a man_n be_v senseless_a of_o it_o they_o
