for_o prayer_n be_v command_v and_o there_o be_v two_o way_n wherein_o this_o duty_n may_v be_v perform_v viz._n by_o stint_a form_n and_o by_o express_v themselves_o true_o according_a to_o general_a

other_o form_n be_v leave_v upon_o record_n either_o in_o the_o gospel_n or_o epistle_n for_o by_o the_o doctor_n discourse_n the_o disciple_n have_v form_n of_o prayer_n which_o must_v certain_o be_v jewish_n form_n and_o christ_n only_o teach_v they_o another_o form_n which_o they_o be_v to_o add_v to_o those_o they_o have_v before_o yea_o according_a to_o what_o the_o doctor_n relate_v the_o lord_n jesus_n when_o he_o provide_v his_o disciple_n a_o new_a form_n to_o be_v add_v to_o the_o rest_n be_v not_o only_o so_o far_o from_o discharge_v people_n and_o set_v his_o disciple_n free_a from_o the_o stint_a way_n of_o liturgy_n but_o from_o their_o obligation_n to_o the_o jewish_a form_n that_o he_o will_v consine_n himself_o in_o the_o very_a prayer_n he_o make_v they_o whereby_o they_o be_v to_o be_v know_v from_o all_o other_o to_o be_v his_o disciple_n to_o the_o jewish_a liturgy_n so_o that_o there_o shall_v not_o be_v one_o sentence_n in_o his_o prayer_n but_o what_o he_o

as_o the_o doctor_n report_v that_o christ_n take_v every_o sentence_n of_o his_o prayer_n out_o of_o the_o jewish_a prayer_n and_o teach_v it_o his_o disciple_n that_o they_o may_v add_v it_o to_o

but_o i_o say_v it_o must_v still_o be_v note_v that_o if_o a_o man_n be_v to_o pray_v with_o other_o and_o that_o which_o we_o be_v now_o discourse_v be_v concern_v one_o that_o by_o way_n of_o

true_o say_v to_o pray_v in_o or_o by_o the_o spirit_n according_a to_o the_o full_a import_n of_o that_o phrase_n but_o say_v the_o doctor_n than_o no_o man_n in_o the_o public_a assembly_n do_v

minister_n officiate_a in_o this_o performance_n in_o the_o fit_a expression_n they_o be_v able_a the_o doctor_n seem_v to_o be_v of_o the_o opinion_n that_o in_o the_o apostle_n day_n there_o be_v a_o extraordinary_a gift_n of_o prayer_n which_o some_o do_v partake_v of_o and_o that_o their_o prayer_n be_v divine_a revelation_n they_o be_v immediate_o furnish_v by_o the_o spirit_n both_o with_o
