common_a gift_n and_o stand_v treasure_n of_o prayer_n in_o the_o church_n and_o because_o there_o be_v so_o many_o of_o these_o kind_n to_o be_v look_v for_o in_o a_o church_n that_o those_o which_o be_v able_a to_o pray_v as_o they_o ought_v without_o a_o form_n may_v yet_o in_o public_a submit_v to_o be_v thus_o restrain_v to_o the_o use_n of_o so_o excellent_a a_o form_n thus_o set_v before_o
