devotion_n be_v kindle_v and_o be_v once_o kindle_v be_v conunue_v and_o increase_v also_o the_o diligent_a mark_v of_o those_o thing_n we_o be_v to_o ask_v whereof_o we_o be_v put_v in_o mind_n by_o the_o word_n of_o our_o prayer_n do_v excite_v and_o kindle_v in_o our_o benumb_a and_o freeze_a heart_n a_o good_a affection_n unto_o prayer_n for_o those_o word_n because_o they_o be_v the_o word_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o tool_n or_o instrument_n of_o the_o spirit_n whereby_o the_o spirit_n of_o prayer_n will_v be_v powerful_a and_o effectual_a in_o us._n and_o therefore_o that_o which_o christ_n here_o deliver_v when_o we_o pray_v say_v do_v bind_v we_o so_o farforth_o as_o the_o rehearsal_n of_o word_n in_o pray_v be_v hereunto_o available_a to_o excite_v and_o kindle_v to_o continue_v and_o increase_v our_o devotion_n lest_o it_o shall_v wax_v cold_a and_o benumb_a and_o be_v quench_v altogether_o and_o hereunto_o sometime_o long_o prayer_n serve_v best_a otherwise_o those_o which_o be_v short_a to_o this_o purpose_n austin_n in_o his_o 121._o epistle_n to_o proba_n write_v many_o thing_n substantial_o some_o whereof_o pertain_v to_o this_o place_n i_o will_v here_o set_v down_o he_o which_o forbid_v much_o babble_n in_o prayer_n because_o he_o know_v what_o be_v needful_a for_o we_o do_v likewise_o command_v that_o we_o shall_v always_o pray_v and_o not_o faint_a not_o because_o he_o will_v have_v our_o will_n make_v know_v to_o he_o whereof_o he_o can_v be_v ignorant_a but_o to_o exercise_v our_o desire_n whereby_o we_o may_v receive_v that_o which_o we_o be_v about_o to_o give_v for_o that_o which_o he_o will_v give_v be_v very_o great_a but_o we_o be_v little_a and_o straight_o and_o can_v not_o receive_v the_o same_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v unto_o we_o open_v thy_o mouth_n for_o so_o much_o the_o more_o full_o shall_v we_o receive_v that_o which_o be_v exceed_o great_a by_o how_o much_o we_o do_v more_o faithful_o believe_v it_o more_o firm_o hope_v for_o it_o and_o more_o earnest_o desire_v it_o therefore_o we_o do_v always_o pray_v in_o faith_n hope_n and_o charity_n with_o a_o continue_a desire_n but_o yet_o at_o certain_a time_n we_o do_v with_o word_n entreat_v the_o lord_n that_o so_o we_o may_v admonish_v ourselves_o how_o much_o we_o have_v profit_v in_o this_o desire_n and_o likewise_o excite_v ourselves_o to_o do_v the_o same_o more_o cheerful_o that_o therefore_o which_o the_o apostle_n say_v pray_v continual_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o this_o continual_o desire_v a_o bless_a life_n and_o therefore_o at_o certain_a hour_n we_o do_v withdraw_v our_o mind_n from_o other_o care_n and_o business_n whereby_o this_o desire_n be_v cool_v in_o some_o sort_n unto_o this_o exercise_n of_o prayer_n and_o by_o the_o word_n of_o the_o prayer_n do_v admonish_v ourselves_o to_o give_v heed_n to_o that_o which_o we_o desire_v lest_o that_o which_o have_v begin_v to_o be_v warm_a do_v wax_v cold_a altogether_o and_o at_o length_n be_v whole_o put_v out_o unless_o it_o be_v more_o often_o kindle_v and_o therefore_o to_o continue_v in_o prayer_n some_o long_a time_n be_v not_o as_o some_o think_v to_o use_v much_o babble_n for_o much_o speech_n be_v one_o thing_n and_o long_o continue_a affection_n be_v another_o thing_n it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o lord_n himself_o that_o he_o continue_v whole_a night_n in_o prayer_n and_o use_v to_o pray_v very_o long_o the_o brethren_n in_o egypt_n be_v say_v to_o pray_v very_o often_o but_o yet_o very_o brief_o and_o in_o a_o manner_n to_o dispatch_v they_o quick_o lest_o that_o earnestness_n which_o be_v careful_o begin_v shall_v by_o long_a delay_n wax_v dull_a and_o vanish_v away_o and_o by_o this_o also_o they_o do_v sufficient_o declare_v that_o this_o earnestness_n as_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v force_v when_o it_o will_v not_o continue_v so_o it_o be_v not_o speedy_o to_o be_v break_v off_o if_o it_o will_v long_o endure_v for_o in_o prayer_n we_o must_v not_o use_v many_o word_n and_o yet_o we_o must_v not_o want_v much_o desire_n if_o so_o be_v our_o zeal_n will_v persevere_v to_o pray_v much_o be_v to_o knock_v unto_o he_o who_o we_o pray_v unto_o with_o a_o continual_a and_o a_o godly_a lift_v up_o of_o the_o heart_n and_o for_o the_o most_o part_n this_o business_n be_v better_a perform_v in_o sigh_n and_o groan_n then_o with_o word_n and_o by_o weep_v then_o by_o speak_v for_o our_o groan_a be_v not_o hide_v from_o he_o who_o by_o his_o word_n make_v all_o thing_n and_o desire_v not_o the_o word_n of_o man_n but_o therefore_o must_v we_o use_v word_n in_o prayer_n that_o we_o may_v be_v put_v in_o mind_n to_o have_v regard_n to_o that_o we_o ask_v not_o that_o we_o may_v think_v thereby_o to_o
