the_o reader_n of_o this_o psalter_n do_v not_o by_o master_n fowler_n hear_v to_o believe_v he_o can_v not_o invocate_v nor_o pray_v for_o how_o shall_v they_o call_v on_o he_o on_o who_o they_o do_v not_o believe_v christ_n our_o saviour_n and_o master_n teach_v we_o thus_o of_o prayer_n 21_o whatsoever_o you_o shall_v ask_v in_o prayer_n if_o you_o believe_v you_o shall_v receive_v it_o and_o

join_v faith_n to_o our_o prayer_n and_o prayer_n to_o our_o faith_n and_o his_o apostle_n james_n instruct_v we_o how_o to_o pray_v 1._o bid_v he_o that_o pray_v ask_v in_o faith_n and_o waver_v not_o for_o he_o that_o waver_v be_v like_a to_o a_o wave_n of_o the_o sea_n toss_v with_o the_o wind_n and_o carry_v away_o neither_o let_v that_o man_n think_v that_o he_o shall_v obtain_v any_o

a_o thing_n which_o many_o have_v do_v without_o faith_n and_o a_o thing_n unprofitable_a as_o you_o have_v hear_v a_o most_o certain_a and_o comfortable_a rule_n be_v give_v we_o whereby_o we_o be_v to_o be_v rule_v in_o prayer_n that_o be_v if_o we_o ask_v any_o thing_n of_o god_n according_a to_o his_o will_n it_o shall_v be_v give_v unto_o we_o as_o holy_a john_n say_v 1._o lo._n 1._o now_o how_o god_n will_v have_v we_o to_o pray_v jesus_n himself_o have_v teach_v we_o not_o only_o in_o that_o prayer_n which_o he_o do_v teach_v we_o and_o be_v therefore_o of_o he_o call_v the_o lord_n prayer_n but_o also_o in_o those_o precept_n in_o which_o he_o do_v command_v we_o to_o ask_v of_o the_o father_n in_o his_o name_n &_o without_o doubt_v as_o you_o have_v partly_o hear_v before_o these_o and_o other_o like_a to_o they_o very_o be_v the_o right_a rule_n of_o prayer_n teach_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n by_o the_o rule_n of_o which_o we_o must_v frame_v all_o our_o prayer_n if_o we_o will_v so_o pray_v that_o we_o may_v be_v hear_v and_o obtain_v for_o it_o be_v deep_o to_o be_v weigh_v of_o we_o that_o jesus_n christ_n do_v couple_v our_o pray_v together_o both_o with_o faith_n as_o you_o have_v hear_v and_o also_o with_o our_o abide_n in_o he_o &_o the_o abide_v of_o his_o word_n in_o us._n 15._o if_o you_o abide_v in_o i_o say_v he_o and_o my_o word_n abide_v in_o you_o ask_v what_o you_o will_v and_o it_o shall_v be_v do_v for_o you_o if_o we_o will_v pray_v profitable_o we_o must_v abide_v in_o christ_n and_o his_o word_n in_o we_o but_o master_n fowler_n give_v we_o a_o invocation_n or_o psalter_n of_o jesus_n for_o which_o he_o have_v no_o word_n of_o christ_n and_o by_o which_o he_o draw_v his_o reader_n &_o follower_n from_o christ_n &_o from_o his_o word_n as_o shall_v appear_v hereafter_o there_o can_v be_v no_o profit_n they_o in_o this_o psalter_n of_o fowler_n the_o only_a true_a &_o comfortable_a rule_n of_o prayer_n once_o again_o i_o say_v be_v those_o which_o be_v give_v unto_o we_o by_o jesus_n christ_n his_o apostle_n &_o disciple_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n he_o that_o shall_v give_v we_o any_o other_o rule_n of_o prayer_n contrary_n to_o those_o be_v but_o a_o deceiver_n what_o fair_a work_n soever_o he_o make_v in_o outward_a show_n of_o they_o they_o be_v therefore_o but_o filth_n and_o forgery_n with_o which_o papist_n have_v farce_v their_o old_a primer_n and_o call_v they_o prayer_n receive_v by_o revelation_n though_o they_o be_v bombast_v with_o popish_a pardon_n in_o plenty_n now_o let_v we_o try_v &_o examine_v this_o psalter_n which_o m._n fowler_n call_v jesus_n psalter_n by_o those_o true_a rule_n of_o prayer_n which_o jesus_n christ_n have_v give_v we_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n be_v holy_a sweet_a &_o comfortable_a but_o m._n fowler_n have_v join_v unto_o it_o a_o psalter_n very_o unsavoury_a and_o hurtful_a true_a christian_n which_o have_v right_a faith_n do_v not_o light_o receive_v wicked_a thing_n they_o do_v separate_v right_a thing_n from_o those_o which_o be_v evil_a as_o the_o christian_n emperor_n justinian_n do_v write_v to_o certain_a bishop_n let_v we_o therefore_o separate_v the_o addition_n which_o m._n fowler_n in_o his_o psalter_n have_v join_v to_o the_o good_a name_n of_o jesus_n that_o the_o christian_n may_v contemplate_v that_o bless_a name_n as_o it_o be_v by_o itself_o &_o that_o thing_n differ_v from_o it_o may_v be_v espy_v out_o &_o refuse_v but_o before_o i_o do_v come_v to_o the_o petition_n by_o which_o m._n fowler_n patch_v up_o his_o

be_v three_o manner_n of_o psalter_n he_o may_v have_v tell_v we_o of_o more_o psalter_n as_o i_o have_v say_v before_o david_n psalter_n we_o know_v we_o read_v with_o comfort_n and_o thank_v god_n for_o it_o we_o do_v with_o humble_a heart_n receive_v it_o with_o all_o the_o whole_a number_n of_o 150._o psalm_n which_o number_n m._n fowler_n divide_v into_o thrice_o fifty_o to_o make_v a_o way_n into_o some_o mystery_n belike_o of_o his_o other_o psalter_n the_o second_o be_v say_v he_o call_v the_o psalter_n of_o our_o lady_n be_v it_o call_v so_o m._n fowler_n by_o who_o or_o who_o have_v give_v it_o that_o name_n do_v your_o lady_n make_v it_o do_v she_o so_o call_v it_o if_o not_o she_o who_o then_o we_o will_v not_o take_v thing_n upon_o your_o bare_a report_n m._n fowler_n tell_v we_o therefore_o the_o author_n of_o this_o psalter_n as_o you_o do_v of_o the_o first_o which_o be_v david_n else_o you_o will_v make_v this_o your_o stuff_n suspect_v you_o pass_v from_o the_o name_n to_o the_o matter_n of_o this_o psalter_n and_o do_v tell_v we_o that_o this_o psalter_n of_o your_o lady_n contain_v thrice_o fifty_o ave_n i_o tell_v you_o before_o that_o m._n fowler_n do_v divide_v the_o number_n of_o the_o psalm_n of_o the_o psalter_n of_o david_n into_o thrice_o fifty_o to_o make_v thereby_o a_o way_n into_o some_o mystery_n of_o his_o other_o psalter_n and_o now_o you_o see_v that_o his_o second_o psalter_n though_o it_o do_v in_o nothing_o else_o resemble_v that_o of_o david_n yet_o he_o make_v it_o to_o resemble_v the_o same_o in_o the_o number_n of_o thrice_o fifty_o and_o in_o the_o term_n psalter_n a_o proper_a piece_n of_o work_n but_o once_o again_o i_o ask_v who_o have_v tell_v m._n fowler_n that_o his_o lady_n psalter_n contain_v the_o just_a number_n of_o thrice_o fifty_o ave_n true_o i_o think_v there_o be_v more_o than_o thrice_o fifty_o man_n and_o woman_n in_o england_n &_o else_o where_o yet_o plunge_v in_o popery_n which_o can_v not_o tell_v we_o by_o just_a account_n that_o thrice_o fifty_o ave_n do_v make_v their_o lady_n psalter_n and_o no_o marvel_n for_o it_o be_v a_o very_a hard_a thing_n for_o a_o unlearned_a person_n to_o know_v the_o perfection_n of_o that_o thing_n which_o have_v so_o obscure_a a_o begin_v as_o have_v this_o lady_n psalter_n but_o let_v it_o pass_v upon_o the_o credit_n of_o m._n fowler_n if_o any_o like_a upon_o his_o credit_n to_o accept_v it_o yet_o may_v i_o ask_v why_o these_o ave_n thus_o pack_v together_o be_v call_v a_o psalter_n it_o be_v no_o instrument_n of_o ten_o

a_o pish_o toy_n it_o be_v no_o invocation_n it_o be_v no_o prayer_n for_o it_o have_v no_o petition_n in_o it_o as_o it_o be_v grant_v by_o m._n fowler_n his_o great_a friend_n m._n vaw_n even_o

take_v the_o pain_n to_o make_v this_o matter_n more_o plain_a to_o we_o in_o better_a show_n of_o truth_n or_o else_o we_o will_v tell_v he_o plain_o that_o this_o his_o psalter_n must_v be_v turn_v over_o to_o himself_o for_o his_o own_o pastime_n to_o be_v play_v upon_o his_o ten_o finger_n for_o i_o do_v not_o else_o think_v that_o any_o man_n of_o good_a understand_v will_v dance_v after_o

before_o this_o our_o age_n that_o be_v the_o psalter_n of_o jesus_n which_o m._n fowler_n do_v say_v do_v contain_v fifteen_o principal_a petition_n which_o ten_o time_n repeat_v make_v also_o

though_o in_o nothing_o else_o but_o we_o think_v not_o that_o this_o agreement_n in_o name_n &_o number_v only_o either_o can_v or_o do_v make_v this_o new_a psalter_n of_o m._n fowler_n a_o

tell_v we_o that_o in_o his_o psalter_n and_o invocation_n the_o glorious_a name_n of_o jesus_n be_v call_v upon_o four_o hundred_o and_o fifty_o time_n tell_v we_o not_o how_o often_o but_o how_o well_o you_o do_v call_v upon_o this_o name_n most_o holy_a &_o glorious_a in_o deed_n for_o it_o be_v not_o in_o invocation_n enough_o to_o pronounce_v the_o letter_n and_o syllable_n of_o the_o

we_o to_o call_v upon_o he_o in_o faith_n and_o sure_a confidence_n know_v that_o he_o and_o he_o only_o yea_o he_o and_o none_o other_o under_o heaven_n but_o he_o be_v give_v to_o man_n by_o who_o
