of_o david_n who_o go_v about_o too_o pray_v say_v in_o the_o .25_o psalm_n unto_o thou_o o_o lord_n have_v i_o lift_v up_o my_o soul_n and_o second_o by_o the_o form_n of_o pray_v appoint_v too_o

unto_o heaven_n this_o therefore_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o know_v that_o prayer_n be_v not_o a_o prattle_a of_o the_o speech_n only_o but_o that_o it_o be_v a_o humble_a lift_v up_o of_o the_o hart_n
