Die Gebete in diesem Buch stammen aus dem größtenteils vergessenen Fundus puritanischer geistlicher Übungen und Meditationen. Sie bezeugen den Reichtum und die Farbe des puritanischen Gedankenguts und dessen Sprache, die einem wichtigen Teil des englischen religiösen Lebens eine lebendige Frömmigkeit eingehaucht hat. Es ist zu hoffen, dass ihre Veröffentlichung dabei helfen wird, der Vernachlässigung dieses riesigen Ozeans puritanischer Spiritualität entgegenzuwirken. Viele damalige Geistliche rieten ihren Versammlungen, private Gebetsgedanken zu Papier zu bringen und auszusprechen.
