here_o you_o may_v see_v that_o from_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n which_o your_o minister_n say_v shall_v be_v the_o standard_n to_o try_v every_o thing_n by_o that_o in_o the_o

14.15_o paul_n say_v he_o will_v pray_v with_o the_o spirit_n etc._n etc._n and_o sing_v with_o the_o spirit_n etc._n etc._n eph._n 5.18_o there_o the_o apostle_n exhort_v they_o to_o be_v fill_v

in_o yourself_o ability_n that_o you_o do_v not_o need_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n and_o all_o true_a christian_n seek_v the_o help_n of_o and_o can_v not_o do_v without_o nay_o it_o be_v that_o by_o which_o they_o know_v what_o to_o pray_v for_o and_o therefore_o they_o wait_v for_o its_o assistance_n and_o paul_n say_v he_o will_v pray_v with_o it_o you_o may_v make_v long_a prayer_n like_o the_o pharisee_n but_o what_o will_v it_o avail_v it_o be_v do_v without_o that_o in_o which_o the_o saint_n have_v access_n to_o god._n so_o here_o your_o pray_v and_o worship_n and_o separation_n
