Needfull Requisites, to make up a profitable Hearer of Gods Word. [ 1123]

IT is said of that Princely Iosiah,* 1.1 King Edward the sixth, that his carriage in the publick service of God was such, that he constantly stood up at the hearing of Gods Word, took Notes, which he afterwards diligently perused, and wrought the Sermon upon his affection, by serious meditation. Thus, it is not a bare sitting under the Ordinance,* 1.2 a meer formall hearing of the Word, thinking, (as too many do) that when the Sermon is ended,* 1.3 all is done: But there must be attention of body, inten∣tion of mind, and retention of memory, which are indispensably required of all Wisdom's schollars, and are the most needfull requisites, to make up a profitable hearer of Gods Word.
