5._o he_o save_v we_o by_o the_o wash_n of_o regeneration_n and_o renew_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n hence_o i_o conclude_v that_o here_o he_o speak_v of_o rebaptise_v mark_v the_o word_n regeneration_n and_o renew_n it_o signify_v to_o make_v a_o old_a thing_n new_a again_o and_o as_o the_o renew_n of_o a_o covenant_n can_v be_v do_v to_o he_o that_o never_o be_v in_o covenant_n nor_o

be_v baptise_v and_o it_o must_v needs_o argue_v from_o this_o place_n tit._n 3._o 5._o that_o in_o some_o measure_n when_o they_o be_v infant_n they_o have_v baptism_n and_o that_o now_o be_v defile_v by_o the_o sin_n of_o their_o youth_n they_o be_v rebaptise_v wash_v and_o have_v the_o spirit_n renew_v on_o they_o again_o and_o as_o david_n after_o he_o go_v in_o to_o uriah_n wife_n and_o by_o sin_n defile_v his_o holy_a spirit_n he_o desire_v god_n to_o wash_v he_o and_o to_o renew_v a_o right_a spirit_n within_o he_o psa._n 51._o 2_o 7_o 10_o 11._o yet_o david_n then_o have_v the_o holy_a spirit_n though_o in_o a_o weak_a measure_n because_o of_o his_o sin_n therefore_o he_o desire_v god_n not_o to_o take_v his_o holy_a spirit_n from_o he_o but_o to_o wash_v he_o and_o renew_v the_o holy_a spirit_n he_o have_v by_o give_v he_o a_o great_a measure_n of_o the_o same_o spirit_n so_o in_o like_o manner_n they_o now_o that_o be_v rebaptise_v shall_v not_o despise_v the_o holy_a spirit_n which_o they_o receive_v in_o their_o infant-baptism_n but_o with_o david_n desire_v god_n to_o renew_v that_o holy_a spirit_n within_o they_o by_o give_v they_o a_o great_a measure_n of_o the_o same_o spirit_n again_o from_o these_o text_n heb._n 10._o 22._o 1_o pet._n 3._o 21._o we_o must_v needs_o understand_v the_o rebaptise_v for_o how_o can_v infant_n be_v say_v to_o come_v to_o baptism_n with_o full_a assurance_n of_o faith_n have_v their_o heart_n sprinkle_v from_o a_o evil_a conscience_n and_o their_o body_n wash_v with_o pure_a water_n whereas_o infant_n understand_v not_o what_o conscience_n be_v and_o how_o can_v they_o have_v the_o answer_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n towards_o god_n by_o the_o resurrection_n of_o jesus_n christ_n see_v they_o be_v not_o

from_o hence_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o those_o who_o be_v to_o be_v save_v notwithstanding_o their_o baptism_n in_o their_o infancy_n ought_v to_o be_v baptise_v again_o as_o for_o they_o that_o

upon_o they_o to_o be_v judah_n make_v as_o though_o according_a to_o the_o text_n they_o strive_v who_o shall_v be_v most_o forward_o in_o their_o love_n to_o bring_v home_o the_o king_n shall_v

right_a it_o be_v matth._n 28._o 24_o 25._o and_o have_v be_v require_v to_o the_o purpose_n of_o the_o scotch_a presbyter_n therefore_o sure_o their_o english_a brethren_n shall_v not_o escape_v though_o they_o be_v the_o cunning_a hypocrite_n on_o the_o earth_n the_o scribe_n and_o pharisee_n be_v but_o fool_n in_o comparison_n to_o they_o for_o hypocrisic_n yet_o god_n forbid_v that_o i_o shall_v say_v all_o that_o go_v under_o the_o name_n of_o presbyterian_n be_v so_o guilty_a of_o the_o king_n blood_n though_o they_o all_o be_v sufficient_a hypocrite_n in_o other_o case_n but_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o a_o party_n of_o they_o contrive_v the_o way_n to_o bring_v the_o king_n to_o his_o end_n how_o many_o they_o be_v in_o number_n god_n only_o know_v and_o it_o be_v too_o a_o hard_a a_o thing_n for_o man_n to_o find_v they_o out_o because_o all_o be_v perjure_v person_n that_o be_v to_o witness_v it_o all_o honest_a man_n be_v exclude_v from_o that_o secret_a so_o that_o they_o can_v witness_v nothing_o therefore_o i_o will_v not_o have_v the_o king_n to_o punish_v any_o of_o they_o for_o his_o father_n blood_n but_o refer_v it_o to_o god_n for_o the_o evil_a name_n and_o shame_n they_o get_v by_o it_o and_o the_o guilt_n that_o lie_v upon_o their_o conscience_n with_o the_o voice_n of_o his_o blood_n that_o follow_v they_o whithersoever_o they_o go_v be_v a_o great_a punishment_n to_o they_o than_o all_o the_o torture_n the_o king_n can_v devise_v to_o put_v they_o to_o for_o if_o he_o punish_v they_o than_o it_o mitigate_v and_o lessen_v the_o aforesaid_a punishment_n and_o true_o he_o can_v punish_v the_o guilty_a but_o he_o must_v also_o destroy_v the_o innocent_a for_o they_o be_v so_o link_v together_o in_o the_o work_n that_o if_o the_o case_n of_o the_o king_n blood_n come_v to_o be_v try_v i_o believe_v the_o most_o guilty_a will_v escape_v best_a for_o they_o will_v say_v and_o swear_v and_o hire_v other_o to_o swear_v any_o thing_n and_o use_v all_o mean_n to_o cast_v it_o upon_o the_o innocent_a therefore_o i_o say_v let_v the_o king_n forgive_v all_o or_o none_o true_o i_o be_o sure_a by_o a_o vision_n that_o i_o have_v he_o must_v forgive_v all_o or_o none_o and_o if_o he_o forgive_v none_o i_o know_v not_o how_o he_o will_v ever_o come_v to_o enjoy_v his_o kingdom_n we_o have_v a_o continual_a noise_n of_o
