Arm your selves with prayer in your adversities. Many ⟨image 63⟩begin to pray,1 and suddenly caste away prayer, the Devil putteth such fantasies in their heads, as though GOD could not intend them, or had somewhat else to do.

But you must be importune and not weary, nor caste away prayer.1 Nay you must caste away sin. GOD will hear your prayer, albeit, you be sinners, I send you a judge that will be glad to hear you. You that are oppressed, I speak to you▪ Christ in this parable doth paint the good will of god toward you, o miserable people,2 he that is not received, let him not despair, nor think that god had forsaken him, For god tarrieth till he seeth a time, & better can do all thin ges for us, than we our selves can wish.
