All those which we are to desire for our selves: that ⟨p. 44⟩Gods name may be hallowed by others as well as our selves: which we are to desire, not only for our children, families, kindred, neighbours, country-men, or such as we are by outward bands bound unto, but indefinitely for all of all sorts: whereof we have a worthy pattern in the 67.
