the_o spirit_n of_o knowledge_n and_o so_o we_o must_v pray_v in_o knowledge_n 2._o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v in_o we_o and_o so_o we_o must_v pray_v in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n by_o the_o spirit_n 3._o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o faith_n and_o so_o we_o must_v pray_v in_o faith_n without_o doubt_v 4._o and_o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o patience_n and_o so_o we_o must_v wait_v in_o prayer_n 5._o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o wisdom_n teach_v we_o what_o to_o pray_v for_o &_o so_o we_o must_v pray_v in_o wisdom_n for_o such_o thing_n as_o be_v most_o sovereign_a and_o necessary_a for_o spiritual_a grace_n absolute_o for_o temporal_a with_o condition_n 6_o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o humility_n teach_v we_o to_o deny_v our_o own_o wisdom_n and_o not_o rest_n in_o our_o own_o righteousness_n and_o so_o to_o submit_v to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n as_o not_o to_o faint_v in_o our_o labour_n although_o we_o fail_v in_o our_o particular_a desire_n

with_o all_o patience_n and_o perseverance_n therein_o 3_o use_v careful_o to_o search_v and_o prepare_v our_o heart_n when_o we_o come_v before_o the_o lord_n 4_o prepare_v our_o heart_n by_o holy_a

for_o our_o chief_a good_a in_o his_o time_n and_o manner_n which_o shall_v be_v fit_a for_o us._n 7_o comfort_v ourselves_o rather_o in_o the_o sense_n of_o that_o divine_a assistance_n quicken_a our_o request_n and_o continue_v powerful_o therein_o then_o in_o any_o present_a sensible_a issue_n concern_v ourselves_o that_o still_o we_o may_v have_v to_o rejoice_v in_o our_o god_n and_o not_o in_o ourselves_o 8_o and_o so_o quiet_v our_o heart_n that_o we_o have_v do_v the_o will_n of_o our_o god_n that_o the_o will_n of_o god_n may_v be_v do_v in_o we_o to_o the_o satisfy_n of_o our_o best_a desire_n in_o that_o manner_n and_o measure_n as_o best_o please_v he_o for_o our_o main_a and_o principal_a good_a thus_o may_v we_o prevail_v in_o prayer_n and_o to_o this_o end_n may_v thou_o make_v use_n of_o these_o help_n rather_o as_o direction_n to_o inform_v thou_o aright_o in_o the_o matter_n and_o order_n of_o prayer_n they_o any_o strict_a bound_n to_o confine_v thou_o to_o the_o letter_n thereof_o wish_v thou_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n so_o to_o make_v use_n thereof_o as_o to_o make_v they_o rather_o mean_v to_o stir_v up_o the_o spirit_n in_o thou_o then_o to_o
