Drumme
prayour in english
He preached in a Sermon made in Christchurch this. We may not pray in an unknowen tounge, for if wee doo. wee doo but mocke with god, and of god wee be mocked / As if a man do com to a lorde and bable to hym wourdes he knoweth not
The lorde will but mocke hym, / and acumpt hym for a foole, So thy prayer man not understand is but babling, / and for that before god
thou art but a fole / Mr Parkhurst. Mur hunt. Mr milles.
Item your psalmody and song in the churche is so taken with god, / if that yow which do occupie your selfe therin do not understand it, / And than that so bablish doest breake the commaundment of god. for it is written non accipiens nomen dei in vanum and you do call on god vaynely whan you do call apon hym in a tounge that you understand not. wherefore to suche as know not the laten it must be nedefull to pray in the l mother tounge
Mr. parkhurst. Mr. hunt. Mr milles.
