accidental_a i_o confess_v this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o argument_n for_o form_n of_o prayer_n and_o true_o i_o must_v own_v there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o betake_v ourselves_o to_o well_o compose_a form_n in_o hymn_n and_o psalm_n for_o i_o know_v of_o no_o minister_n or_o christian_n that_o pretend_v to_o any_o accuracy_n in_o sudden_a extempore_o hymn_n or_o put_v a_o psalm_n of_o david_n

to_o dispute_v other_o have_v well_o answer_v all_o other_o psalm_n baxter_n paraph_n on_o psalm_n objection_n against_o this_o duty_n it_o be_v easy_o understand_v that_o he_o that_o pray_v be_v the_o mouth_n of_o all_o the_o rest_n and_o it_o be_v their_o great_a duty_n that_o join_v with_o he_o to_o labour_v affectionate_o to_o go_v along_o with_o he_o in_o their_o spirit_n and_o at_o last_o to_o say_v amen_o to_o all_o that_o they_o apprehend_v have_v be_v according_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n but_o in_o psalm_n and_o hymn_n they_o be_v all_o mouth_n all_o vocal_o praise_v god_n therefore_o aught_o to_o hear_v before_o hand_n or_o have_v it_o before_o they_o in_o a_o book_n what_o be_v to_o be_v sing_v and_o this_o must_v not_o be_v only_o to_o avoid_v confusion_n but_o it_o be_v necessary_a in_o all_o harmony_n that_o word_n and_o sound_n be_v concordant_o the_o same_o and_o here_o lie_v the_o difference_n between_o prayer_n and_o praise_n in_o verse_n or_o

i_o can_v but_o express_v my_o experience_n in_o this_o matter_n that_o a_o excellent_a new_a and_o well_o compose_v hymn_n or_o the_o often_o vary_v in_o this_o ordinance_n do_v much_o affect_v i_o and_o i_o believe_v all_o person_n will_v acknowledge_v that_o the_o often_o or_o constant_a use_n of_o the_o same_o psalm_n or_o hymn_n have_v not_o such_o a_o tendency_n to_o stir_v up_o such_o lively_a affection_n and_o i_o need_v not_o tell_v any_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o that_o know_v any_o thing_n of_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n and_o the_o humane_a nature_n which_o must_v be_v delight_v
