¶What prayer is.
wHo will pray / must know and understand that prayer is an earnest & familiar talking with God / to whom we declare our miseries / whose support and help / we implore and desire in our adversities / & whom we laud & praise for our benefits received.1 So that prayer containeth the exposition of our dolours / the desire of Gods defence / and ⟨image 31⟩loving of his magnificent name / as the Psalms of David clearly teacheth.
