circumstantial_o of_o which_o private_a worship_n i_o have_v instanced_a in_o those_o particular_n which_o many_o good_a christian_n to_o who_o this_o book_n may_v be_v serviceable_a can_v enjoy_v but_o every_o man_n prudence_n must_v be_v his_o guide_n in_o such_o case_n and_o he_o who_o have_v not_o a_o closet_n so_o furnish_v as_o be_v advise_v aught_o to_o take_v care_n that_o he_o do_v not_o altogether_o want_v a_o place_n to_o pray_v in_o and_o god_n will_v accept_v of_o he_o not_o according_a to_o what_o he_o have_v not_o but_o according_a to_o what_o he_o have_v here_o also_o i_o

choose_v their_o closet_n common_o next_o the_o street_n and_o when_o they_o be_v in_o it_o pray_v aloud_o though_o alone_o that_o all_o who_o pass_v by_o at_o least_o that_o be_v in_o the_o house_n may_v hear_v they_o which_o what_o it_o can_v mean_v but_o a_o design_n to_o be_v hear_v of_o man_n i_o can_v understand_v for_o if_o they_o hearty_o confess_v their_o sin_n and_o as_o i_o think_v it_o ought_v to_o be_v in_o private_a prayer_n by_o name_n and_o with_o all_o the_o aggravate_v circumstance_n that_o have_v attend_v their_o transgression_n what_o temptation_n be_v such_o people_n
