IN my judgement we may divide this Chapter into three principal parts. for first he setteth down certain rules from the 1. to the 16. secondly he entreateth of invocation of dead Saints, from the 17. to the 27. thirdly, he showeth how manifold prayer is, and disputeth of every one: 28.29. Fourthly he entreateth of certain accidents of prayer, from the 30. to the 33. fifthly, he declareth ⟨p. 167⟩the Lords prayer, from the 34. to the 49. Last of all, he joineth certain other things of prayer, from the 50. to the 52.
