do_v if_o they_o do_v not_o understand_v our_o affair_n our_o prayer_n and_o our_o penitent_a heart_n the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o saint_n in_o heaven_n do_v not_o know_v what_o we_o do_v on_o earth_n for_o as_o the_o prophet_n record_v abraham_n be_v ignorant_a what_o the_o israelite_n do_v 63.16_o and_o jacob_n know_v they_o not_o i_o say_v second_o that_o the_o text_n do_v not_o

on_o earth_n while_o the_o angel_n be_v present_a i_o say_v three_o that_o the_o angel_n which_o be_v appoint_v for_o our_o service_n on_o earth_n and_o thereby_o know_v our_o affair_n on_o earth_n may_v make_v relation_n thereof_o in_o heaven_n and_o so_o the_o whole_a company_n of_o angel_n in_o heaven_n may_v rejoice_v thereat_o together_o or_o it_o may_v please_v god_n sometime_o to_o reveal_v the_o conversion_n of_o some_o sinner_n to_o the_o saint_n or_o angel_n in_o heaven_n but_o hereupon_o will_v it_o never_o be_v conclude_v that_o either_o the_o saint_n or_o the_o angel_n do_v know_v the_o secret_n of_o our_o heart_n or_o our_o petition_n universal_o as_o be_v already_o say_v the_o five_o reply_n to_o do_v miracle_n be_v as_o proper_a to_o god_n as_o to_o know_v the_o secret_n of_o our_o heart_n therefore_o since_o god_n have_v communicate_v the_o one_o to_o his_o servant_n so_o may_v he_o without_o contradiction_n do_v the_o other_o the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o god_n himself_o do_v ever_o work_v the_o miracle_n and_o do_v only_o use_v the_o ministry_n of_o his_o apostle_n and_o servant_n in_o the_o external_a act_n i_o say_v second_o that_o god_n can_v &_o have_v de_fw-la facto_fw-la reveal_v the_o secret_n of_o man_n heart_n even_o to_o his_o holy_a prophet_n yet_o he_o never_o do_v that_o general_o but_o in_o measure_n at_o certain_a time_n to_o special_a person_n for_o the_o good_a of_o his_o church_n the_o sixth_o reply_n although_o god_n can_v give_v any_o inherent_a quality_n to_o the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n by_o which_o they_o may_v know_v all_o the_o desire_n and_o prayer_n of_o the_o live_n here_o on_o earth_n because_o no_o creature_n be_v capable_a thereof_o yet_o may_v god_n from_o time_n to_o time_n reveal_v all_o such_o prayer_n to_o his_o saint_n the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o it_o be_v not_o impossible_a for_o god_n so_o to_o do_v though_o god_n shall_v be_v so_o drive_v without_o need_n to_o work_v innumerable_a miracle_n &_o that_o almost_o every_o hour_n i_o say_v second_o that_o though_o god_n shall_v bestow_v such_o revelation_n on_o his_o saint_n yet_o will_v many_o absurdity_n follow_v thereupon_o for_o first_o these_o revelation_n must_v follow_v the_o prayer_n and_o not_o go_v before_o they_o and_o so_o my_o conclusion_n be_v still_o in_o force_n second_o thus_o to_o require_v miracle_n at_o god_n hand_n be_v to_o tempt_v god_n grievous_o three_o such_o prayer_n shall_v be_v a_o flat_a mockery_n in_o god_n sight_n because_o god_n must_v first_o reveal_v the_o prayer_n to_o his_o saint_n then_o must_v he_o give_v ear_n to_o the_o saint_n while_o they_o inculcate_v the_o same_o prayer_n &_o last_o he_o may_v grant_v they_o if_o he_o listen_v four_o in_o this_o manner_n of_o pray_v they_o leave_v god_n who_o they_o shall_v invocate_v &_o they_o run_v to_o they_o at_o who_o they_o shall_v not_o come_v five_o they_o do_v all_o this_o of_o infidelity_n because_o they_o have_v no_o warrant_n from_o god_n so_o to_o make_v their_o prayer_n the_o 7._o reply_n you_o can_v deny_v but_o that_o the_o live_n may_v pray_v one_o for_o another_o and_o also_o desire_v one_o a_o other_o prayer_n 7._o therefore_o since_o the_o faithful_a depart_a love_n we_o as_o much_o as_o before_o &_o be_v as_o mindful_a of_o we_o as_o before_o and_o be_v as_o dear_a in_o god_n sight_n as_o before_o we_o do_v no_o more_o injury_n or_o dishonour_n to_o god_n in_o pray_v now_o to_o they_o than_o when_o they_o be_v live_v here_o among_o us._n the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o we_o have_v commandment_n promise_n &_o example_n to_o pray_v one_o for_o another_o while_o we_o be_v yet_o live_v on_o earth_n but_o we_o have_v no_o such_o thing_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n neither_o in_o the_o old_a nor_o in_o the_o new_a testament_n concern_v the_o invocation_n of_o saint_n depart_v i_o say_v second_o that_o if_o the_o saint_n depart_v can_v hear_v and_o understande_v our_o prayer_n as_o the_o live_a do_v then_o may_v we_o without_o dishonour_n and_o injury_n to_o god_n desire_v they_o to_o pray_v for_o we_o as_o we_o do_v the_o live_n nevertheless_o such_o kind_n of_o pray_v shall_v be_v in_o we_o great_a temeritie_n and_o presumption_n because_o we_o have_v neither_o commandment_n nor_o example_n in_o god_n word_n so_o to_o do_v i_o say_v three_o that_o if_o the_o live_a shall_v desire_v the_o prayer_n one_o of_o another_o as_o the_o papist_n desire_v the_o prayer_n of_o saint_n they_o shall_v not_o only_o derogate_v great_o from_o

these_o point_n observe_v i_o conclude_v that_o the_o young_a widow_n have_v damnation_n not_o for_o marry_v but_o for_o be_v wanton_a before_o their_o marriage_n for_o in_o be_v wanton_a against_o

they_o to_o marry_v even_o after_o such_o their_o promise_n or_o vow_n i_o prove_v it_o note_v well_o what_o i_o say_v because_o so_o soon_o as_o he_o have_v will_v the_o young_a widow_n to_o marry_v in_o the_o 14._o verse_n forthwith_o in_o the_o 15._o verse_n he_o yield_v the_o reason_n of_o that_o his_o advice_n to_o wit_n because_o certain_a be_v already_o turn_v back_o after_o satan_n now_o in_o the_o 15._o verse_n he_o must_v needs_o speak_v of_o such_o widow_n as_o be_v receive_v into_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o church_n because_o none_o can_v be_v turn_v back_o from_o that_o to_o which_o they_o never_o be_v admit_v he_o therefore_o speak_v likewise_o of_o the_o betroth_a widow_n in_o the_o next_o verse_n before_o which_o i_o make_v evident_a three_o way_n first_o because_o otherwise_o his_o illation_n in_o the_o 15._o verse_n shall_v be_v foolish_a &_o frivolous_a foolish_a because_o it_o can_v have_v no_o connexion_n with_o the_o 14._o verse_n frivolous_a for_o that_o

of_o 60._o year_n this_o conclusion_n therefore_o be_v make_v touch_v the_o widow_n not_o yet_o admit_v he_o go_v forward_a and_o give_v his_o advice_n for_o the_o young_a widow_n than_o receive_v

upon_o this_o place_n it_o will_v follow_v by_o a_o necessary_a consecution_n that_o the_o pope_n himself_o can_v pardon_v no_o more_o than_o every_o simple_a priest_n which_o sequel_n i_o

thing_n at_o some_o time_n as_o seem_v best_a in_o his_o divine_a wisdom_n i_o say_v four_o that_o popish_a invocation_n require_v infinite_a knowledge_n because_o they_o pray_v for_o all_o matter_n at_o all_o time_n in_o all_o place_n so_o that_o y_z e_z saint_n must_v perforce_o be_v sometime_o ignorant_a what_o they_o pray_v for_o unless_o their_o knowledge_n be_v infinite_a the_o first_o

infinite_a request_n unto_o they_o the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o there_o be_v exceed_o great_a disparity_n between_o the_o person_n that_o pray_v the_o thing_n pray_v for_o and_o the_o saint_n pray_v unto_o for_o the_o thing_n pray_v for_o be_v without_o end_n and_o measure_n they_o that_o pray_v be_v innumerable_a &_o multiplicable_a into_o infinite_a in_o potentia_fw-la and_o

certes_o she_o must_v be_v sometime_o deceive_v not_o know_v what_o be_v require_v of_o she_o i_o say_v second_o that_o it_o be_v proper_a to_o god_n alone_o to_o know_v our_o heart_n and_o

that_o the_o sound_n of_o our_o word_n can_v be_v hear_v to_o heaven_n the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o neither_o angel_n nor_o saint_n can_v be_v in_o many_o place_n at_o once_o but_o be_v

the_o reward_n of_o eternal_a life_n i_o say_v four_o that_o to_o invocate_v saint_n depart_v believe_v that_o they_o can_v &_o do_v hear_v our_o prayer_n be_v to_o make_v they_o god_n and_o even_o

therefore_o much_o more_o do_v the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n know_v our_o state_n on_o earth_n the_o answer_n i_o say_v first_o that_o parable_n and_o allegory_n be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o establish_v any_o new_a kind_n of_o doctrine_n for_o by_o this_o parable_n as_o irenaeus_n record_v christ_n mean_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o declare_v the_o cogitation_n torment_n &_o state_n of_o the_o
