2 Corinthians12:8
Verſe 8. I beſought the Lord thrice] i. e. Frequently and fervently. God reſpecteth not the Arithmetike of our praiers, how many they are, nor the thetorike of our praiers, how neat they are, or the Geometry of our praiers, how long they are: nor the muſick of our praiers, how melodious they are: nor the Logick of our praiers, how methodicall they are: but the Divinity of our praiers, how heart-ſprung they are. Not gifts, but graces prevail in praier.
