§. 3.

And, when thou prayest, be not as the* 1.1 hypocrites; for they loue to stand & pray in the Sinagogues, & in the corners of the streetes, because they woulde be seene of men. Verily, I say vnto you, they haue theyr reward.

Page 290

But when thou prayest, enter into thy* 1.2 chamber, and vvhen thou hast shutte thy doore, pray vnto thy Father which is in se∣cret, and thy Father which is in secret, shall reward thee openly.

Also, when yee pray, vse no vaine repe∣titions* 1.3 like the Heathen; for they think to be heard for their much babling. Be ye not like them therefore: for your father know∣eth whereof ye haue need before you aske him.
