A82002	A sober and temperate discourse, concerning the interest of words in prayer, the just antiquity and pedigree of liturgies, or forms of prayer in churches : with a view of the state of the church, when they were first composed, or imposed. Together with a discovery of the weakness of the grounds upon which they were first brought in, or upon which Bishop Gawden hath lately discoursed, the necessity of a liturgie, or the inconveniency of altering the English liturgie, the utility of church musick, and the lawfulness of ceremonies : in which are mixed reasons justifying those godly ministers, who forbear the use of the Common-prayer, against the late out-cryes of the said bishop. / By H.D. M.A.	H. D. (Henry Dawbeny); Collinges, John, 1623-1690, attributed name.	1661 (1661)	Wing D449; Thomason E1086_14; ESTC R208152	100,305	119

prayer_n both_o of_o they_o be_v lamentable_a restraint_n put_v upon_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n bestow_v upon_o his_o minister_n to_o that_o very_a end_n that_o by_o the_o use_n of_o they_o they_o may_v be_v profitable_a unto_o his_o people_n ii_o we_o be_v sure_a it_o be_v the_o unquestionable_a duty_n of_o every_o one_o that_o pray_v to_o do_v it_o with_o the_o high_a intention_n of_o mind_n imaginable_a and_o with_o the_o great_a fervency_n of_o spirit_n and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o any_o man_n in_o prayer_n to_o allow_v himself_o in_o any_o thing_n which_o may_v either_o divert_v his_o mind_n from_o the_o most_o fix_a contemplation_n of_o god_n or_o intention_n upon_o his_o duty_n or_o which_o may_v any_o way_n cool_v the_o heat_n and_o fervency_n of_o his_o spirit_n we_o can_v be_v induce_v to_o believe_v that_o any_o one_o can_v possible_o so_o keep_v his_o soul_n fix_v upon_o god_n or_o so_o intent_n upon_o god_n while_o he_o read_v a_o prayer_n as_o while_o he_o speak_v it_o from_o his_o own_o conception_n we_o find_v by_o experience_n not_o to_o determine_v positive_o of_o the_o frame_n of_o other_o person_n spirit_n a_o great_a difference_n in_o the_o intention_n and_o fervency_n in_o our_o spirit_n when_o our_o word_n in_o prayer_n be_v direct_v and_o determine_v by_o the_o inward_a heat_n fervency_n and_o affection_n of_o our_o heart_n from_o what_o be_v when_o our_o word_n be_v determine_v for_o we_o by_o other_o man_n yea_o by_o ourselves_o before_o the_o time_n of_o prayer_n we_o humble_o conceive_v that_o every_o christian_n stand_v bind_v not_o only_o to_o look_v that_o there_o be_v a_o habit_n of_o fervency_n in_o his_o heart_n which_o at_o all_o time_n shall_v dispose_v it_o to_o duty_n of_o communion_n with_o god_n but_o that_o a_o particular_a fervency_n shall_v attend_v the_o act_n of_o prayer_n if_o we_o dare_v boast_v of_o the_o former_a yet_o we_o find_v the_o latter_a certain_o hinder_v by_o a_o prescribe_a form_n and_o we_o do_v believe_v this_o may_v be_v experience_v by_o any_o person_n be_v speak_v to_o a_o man_n for_o his_o life_n we_o do_v not_o think_v it_o possible_a for_o any_o man_n to_o have_v or_o show_v the_o like_a affection_n and_o fervency_n in_o read_v a_o speech_n which_o another_o have_v make_v for_o he_o no_o not_o in_o what_o he_o have_v make_v for_o himself_o before_o that_o time_n as_o he_o may_v by_o such_o word_n as_o the_o present_a sense_n of_o his_o condition_n in_o that_o moment_n of_o time_n shall_v dictate_v to_o he_o nor_o have_v we_o ever_o hear_v of_o any_o malefactor_n at_o the_o bar_n that_o bring_v his_o speech_n for_o his_o life_n in_o a_o form_n if_o he_o do_v we_o believe_v there_o be_v even_o by_o the_o hearer_n discern_v a_o vast_a difference_n betwixt_o such_o speech_n and_o such_o as_o a_o person_n speak_v at_o that_o time_n to_o who_o a_o lively_a sense_n of_o his_o condition_n dictate_v word_n in_o that_o hour_n iii_o nor_o can_v we_o believe_v that_o any_o minister_n pray_v in_o any_o form_n use_v so_o rational_a and_o experiment_v a_o mean_n to_o affect_v his_o hearer_n heart_n as_o he_o who_o use_v none_o as_o in_o preach_v there_o be_v a_o certain_a lively_a efficacy_n of_o the_o voice_n which_o every_o hearer_n discern_v more_o in_o the_o preacher_n speak_v ex_fw-la animo_fw-la then_o from_o his_o read_v a_o sermon_n which_o be_v past_a denial_n evidence_v though_o it_o be_v not_o so_o easy_a to_o say_v what_o it_o be_v so_o that_o a_o sermon_n yea_o a_o ordinary_a oration_n so_o speak_v move_v and_o affect_v the_o hearer_n infinite_o more_o than_o a_o sermon_n or_o a_o oration_n read_v out_o of_o a_o paper_n though_o it_o be_v never_o so_o well_o starch_v up_o with_o oratory_n and_o set_v out_o with_o the_o high_a advantage_n of_o a_o oratorial_n read_v tongue_n so_o we_o believe_v and_o find_v it_o in_o the_o matter_n of_o prayer_n and_o in_o very_a deed_n the_o reason_n of_o this_o we_o conceive_v lie_v much_o in_o this_o because_o the_o speaker_n himself_o be_v discernable_o not_o so_o much_o affect_v in_o read_v as_o in_o speak_v it_o be_v one_o thing_n for_o the_o heart_n and_o affection_n to_o precede_v the_o action_n of_o the_o tongue_n and_o to_o see_v it_o on_o work_n another_o thing_n for_o they_o to_o follow_v the_o tongue_n and_o be_v command_v by_o it_o iv_o speak_v be_v a_o immediate_a act_n of_o the_o tongue_n but_o command_v by_o the_o soul_n the_o tongue_n be_v but_o the_o soul_n organ_n by_o which_o it_o exercise_v that_o power_n which_o god_n have_v give_v it_o and_o it_o can_v be_v so_o well_o perform_v as_o when_o the_o soul_n that_o direct_v perform_v its_o work_n by_o dictate_v immediate_o to_o it_o so_o that_o much_o of_o the_o spirit_n and_o life_n of_o prayer_n be_v lose_v in_o pray_v by_o form_n v._o nay_o last_o to_o add_v no_o more_o if_o there_o be_v nothing_o else_o in_o the_o case_n we_o shall_v think_v it_o very_o disputable_a whether_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o we_o in_o the_o public_a worship_n of_o god_n especial_o as_o to_o the_o momentous_a act_n and_o part_n of_o it_o to_o do_v that_o for_o which_o we_o have_v no_o command_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n no_o precedent_n or_o example_n and_o we_o can_v but_o think_v that_o the_o holy_a psalmist_n variety_n of_o prayer_n and_o the_o variety_n of_o prayer_n which_o we_o find_v use_v by_o the_o several_a saint_n and_o holy_a penman_n of_o scripture_n none_o of_o which_o as_o to_o word_n and_o phrase_n agree_v per_fw-la omne_fw-la with_o another_o shall_v rather_o teach_v we_o that_o when_o we_o go_v unto_o god_n in_o prayer_n observe_v the_o general_a rule_n of_o prayer_n lay_v down_o in_o the_o scripture_n we_o shall_v take_v unto_o we_o word_n de_fw-fr novo_fw-la as_o god_n shall_v put_v they_o into_o our_o heart_n then_o borrow_v word_n from_o other_o hardly_o fit_v to_o our_o heart_n or_o present_a necessity_n if_o any_o have_v not_o ability_n to_o do_v it_o we_o conceive_v it_o be_v his_o own_o fault_n and_o it_o be_v far_o more_o consonant_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o god_n word_n that_o such_o shall_v be_v remove_v from_o god_n altar_n then_o that_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n bestow_v upon_o other_o for_o the_o benefit_n of_o his_o church_n shall_v be_v restrain_v for_o their_o sake_n which_o we_o think_v will_v be_v something_o like_o his_o act_n who_o cut_v the_o man_n fit_a for_o the_o bed_n because_o the_o bed_n way_n not_o fit_a for_o he_o certain_o in_o all_o congruity_n of_o reason_n if_o the_o church_n be_v pester_v and_o must_v needs_o continue_v so_o with_o a_o generation_n of_o man_n who_o either_o through_o ignorance_n or_o through_o a_o woeful_a neglect_n to_o stir_v up_o the_o gift_n of_o god_n in_o they_o can_v pray_v without_o a_o book_n and_o for_o their_o sake_n a_o liturgy_n or_o stint_v form_n in_o prayer_n be_v necessary_a yet_o from_o hence_o can_v be_v conclude_v any_o lawfulness_n much_o less_o

they_o viii_o it_o yet_o remain_v a_o most_o demonstrable_a truth_n that_o the_o work_n of_o prayer_n be_v not_o such_o as_o to_o the_o use_n of_o word_n in_o it_o but_o that_o any_o minister_n of_o
