first_o we_o may_v observe_v that_o god_n hide_v from_o prayer_n be_v 1._o sometime_o real_a and_o so_o in_o deed_n 2._o sometime_o only_o in_o appearance_n or_o in_o the_o apprehension_n of_o man_n 1._o it_o be_v sometime_o real_a as_o in_o all_o those_o place_n of_o scripture_n where_o the_o lord_n threaten_v or_o own_v it_o so_o to_o be_v and_o often_o give_v the_o reason_n from_o man_n provocation_n why_o it_o be_v so_o as_o for_o instance_n in_o that_o of_o the_o prophet_n behold_v the_o lord_n hand_n be_v not_o shorten_v that_o it_o can_v save_v 2_o isa_n 59.1_o 2_o neither_o be_v

not_o hear_v here_o the_o hide_v and_o distance_n from_o prayer_n be_v real_a on_o god_n part_n 2._o it_o be_v at_o other_o time_n but_o in_o appearance_n only_o and_o in_o humane_a apprehension_n god_n hear_v sometime_o yea_o and_o answer_n when_o he_o seem_v not_o so_o to_o do_v or_o when_o man_n do_v think_v and_o believe_v that_o he_o do_v not_o and_o in_o this_o case_n the_o defect_n be_v in_o man_n sense_n and_o perception_n now_o god_n be_v account_v not_o to_o hear_v his_o servant_n prayer_n when_o indeed_o he_o do_v 1._o either_o in_o the_o judgement_n of_o other_o thus_o david_n
