On Prayer
Tertullian
Again, for the custom which some have of sitting when prayer is
i.e. that they have seen it done; for children imitate anything and everything (Oehler).
[Vol. II. p. 18 (Vision V.), this Series. Also, Ib. p. 57, note 2. See Routh’s quotation from Cotelerius, p. 180, in Volume before noted.]
Routh and Oehler (after Rigaltius) refer us to Tob. xii. 12. They also, with Dodgson, refer to Luke i. 11. Perhaps there may be a reference to Rev. viii. 3, 4.
