In Byzantine Greek it is used of a written [[supplication]] ([[like]] [[our]] [[petition]]); cf. [[Sophocles]] Lexicon, [[under]] the [[word]]. See [[more]] at [[length]] Trench, § li.; [[also]] Lightfoot on Schmidt, [[chapter]] vii. In [[ἔντευξις]], [[which]] expresses [[confiding]] [[access]] to God; [[thus]], in [[combination]], [[δέησις]] gives [[prominence]] to the [[expression]] of [[personal]] [[need]], [[προσευχή]] to the [[element]] of [[devotion]], [[ἔντευξις]] to [[that]] of childlike [[confidence]], by representing [[prayer]] as the [[heart]]'s [[converse]] [[with]] God.
