very_a fear_n argue_v a_o choice_n frame_v it_o proceed_v from_o a_o very_a choice_n spirit_n thus_o to_o fear_v indeed_o a_o slight_a and_o common_a spirit_n do_v pray_v it_o care_v not_o how_o so_o the_o work_n be_v do_v it_o be_v all_o they_o mind_n and_o it_o be_v well_o some_o mind_v so_o much_o but_o with_o what_o frame_n of_o spirit_n they_o pray_v alas_o that_o they_o look_v not_o after_o some_o there_o be_v that_o we_o call_v protestant_n which_o in_o this_o be_v as_o bad_a as_o papist_n that_o they_o rather_o give_v god_n a_o number_n of_o prayer_n than_o any_o thing_n else_o but_o now_o it_o argue_v a_o spirit_n something_o heighten_v to_o mind_v the_o manner_n of_o prayer_n to_o eye_n the_o spirit_n and_o the_o soul_n how_o that_o be_v in_o prayer_n look_v as_o it_o argue_v in_o thing_n human_a a_o ordinary_a mind_n that_o can_v content_v itself_o with_o the_o bare_a do_v of_o thing_n how_o bungling_o so_o ever_o whereas_o it_o proceed_v from_o a_o raisednesse_n of_o

one_o as_o cain_n have_v to_o be_v content_v with_o a_o bare_a sacrifice_n a_o bare_a empty_a prayer_n but_o it_o discover_v a_o spirit_n heighten_v such_o a_o one_o as_o paul_n have_v to_o eye_n the_o spirit_n how_o it_o be_v in_o prayer_n paul_n profess_v he_o will_v pray_v in_o his_o spirit_n and_o with_o understanding_n while_o it_o may_v be_v many_o neither_o care_n for_o the_o spirit_n
