Theoph.
Let vs examine the forme of prayer that Christ hath deliuered: how many parts be there of it?
Matth.
* 1.1 In the beginning it containeth a preface, and afterward six petitions. The first three whereof do im∣mediatly respect the glory of God. But the later three containe those things that appertaine to our selues, both for the helpe of this life, and for euerlasting sal∣uation. And they be therefore placed after those that concerne the glorie of God, to the end we might vn∣derstand, that the later three be not rightly conceiued and made, vnlesse they be referred to the glory of God: as it were vnto their proper end: and that therefore they shall not be heard, according to the saying of the Apostle; You aske and receiue not, because you aske a∣misse, * 1.2 that you might consume it vpon your lustes.
