every_o minute_n of_o a_o hour_n consider_v the_o frailty_n and_o weakness_n which_o be_v in_o us._n behold_v they_o a_o petition_n which_o be_v worthy_a to_o be_v esteem_v some_o therehave_v be_v heretofore_o that_o will_v divide_v it_o in_o to_o two_o thus_o lead_v we_o not_o into_o temptation_n one_o but_o deliver_v we_o from_o evil_a a_o other_o but_o this_o be_v unaduised_o do_v temptation_n the_o meaning_n of_o this_o lead_v we_o not_o into_o temptation_n for_o in_o say_v but_o deliver_v we_o we_o mean_v more_o full_o to_o express_v that_o which_o we_o have_v already_o declare_v before_o we_o pray_v then_o in_o the_o first_o place_n that_o god_n will_v not_o lead_v we_o into_o temptation_n and_o what_o be_v the_o meaning_n thereof_o that_o we_o be_v not_o vanquish_v and_o overcome_v of_o temptation_n and_o what_o remedy_n have_v we_o for_o that_o that_o be_v that_o god_n shall_v be_v with_o we_o therein_o too_o maintain_v uphold_v and_o warrant_v we_o for_o if_o

demand_v consist_v of_o these_o two_o part_n that_o be_v therein_o contain_v now_o we_o demand_v what_o be_v the_o substance_n and_o meaning_n thereof_o the_o answer_n be_v that_o god_n will_v not_o suffer_v we_o to_o fall_v into_o wickedness_n prayer_n man_n weakness_n and_o his_o infinite_a assault_n ought_v to_o provoke_v he_o to_o earnest_n and_o hartye_n prayer_n and_o inconvenience_n and_o so_o we_o confess_v that_o we_o shall_v not_o know_v how_o to_o go_v forward_o one_o step_n wtout_fw-fr fall_a and_o that_o even_o as_o there_o be_v infinite_a temptation_n that_o do_v assault_v we_o so_o we_o shall_v be_v vanquish_v and_o overcome_v at_o every_o stroke_n unless_o god_n have_v pity_n of_o we_o and_o strengthen_v us._n now_o that_o we_o may_v the_o better_o perceive_v and_o
