and_o unity_n in_o trinity_n be_v to_o be_v worship_v and_o respect_v or_o that_o we_o ought_v so_o to_o think_v of_o god_n in_o prayer_n as_o one_o in_o essence_n yet_o three_o in_o person_n and_o

include_v they_o as_o joint_o worship_v and_o therefore_o in_o their_o preface_n of_o prayer_n they_o do_v ofttimes_o mention_v express_o that_o bless_a god_n one_o in_o essence_n yet_o three_o in_o person_n as_o he_o to_o who_o they_o speak_v and_o in_o the_o close_a they_o subscribe_v glory_n to_o the_o bless_a father_n son_n and_o spirit_n three_o person_n yet_o one_o god_n etc._n etc._n 5._o we_o may_v single_a out_o the_o son_n of_o god_n the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o he_o to_o who_o we_o occasional_o present_v some_o special_a request_n either_o by_o way_n of_o apostrophe_n
