A more elaborate lesson, illustrating the parable of the Pharisee and
Publican, and showing the characteristics of three kinds of prayer
and their results, can be portrayed thus:

-harisee prayed proudly.
-ublican prayed penitently.
-oor widow prayed perseveringly.
-roud prayer proved worthless.
-enitent prayer procured peace.
-ersevering prayer prevailed.
Another still is to write a part of the test and fill it up with the
answers of the scholars, thus:
{ Repent.
{ Pray.
"At thy word I will { Believe.
{ Love.
{ Obey.
{ Suffer."

{ cried with humility.
What { stood still.
Jesus { asked what they wanted.
did. { had compassion.
{ touched them.
Result. { He healed them.
