Sect. 4. Lords Prayer, often used.
Answ. [It is used but twice in the Morning, and twice in the Evening Service, and twice cannot be called often, much less so often.] For the Litany, Communion, Baptism, &c. they are Offices distinct from Morning and Evening Prayer, and it is not fit that any of them should want the Lords Prayer.] ⟨p. 98⟩[…] ⟨p. 99⟩[…]

Repl. We may better say we are required to use it six times every morning, than but twice: for it is twice in the Common Morning Prayer, and once in the Litany, and once in the Communion Service, and once at Baptism, (which in great Parishes is usually every day) and once to be used by the Preacher in the Pulpit: and if you call these distinct Offices, that maketh not the Lords Prayer the seldomer used: Sure we are the Apostles thought it fit, that many of their Prayers should be without the Lords Prayer.
