〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d proper_o signify_v to_o dip_v in_o order_n unto_o die_v whether_o any_o dip_v that_o be_v do_v not_o in_o order_n unto_o die_v be_v proper_o a_o baptism_n or_o no_o if_o not_o then_o unless_o they_o dip_v when_o they_o baptize_v in_o order_n unto_o die_v they_o be_v no_o baptism_n no_o more_o than_o we_o because_o though_o they_o be_v a_o dip_v yet_o it_o be_v not_o a_o

character_n introduce_v by_o baptism_n on_o the_o soul_n for_o if_o baptise_v be_v according_a to_o the_o proper_a signification_n of_o the_o word_n a_o dip_v in_o order_n unto_o die_v and_o there_o be_v no_o dye_n bring_v by_o the_o baptismal_a water_n on_o the_o body_n it_o remain_v that_o by_o baptise_v there_o be_v a_o dye_n bring_v upon_o the_o soul_n and_o that_o be_v or_o may_v be_v the_o character_n they_o contend_v for_o if_o this_o be_v not_o to_o be_v grant_v then_o be_v not_o that_o notion_n fit_a to_o be_v receive_v or_o insist_v on_o but_o to_o be_v cashier_v the_o next_o

upon_o the_o place_n say_v that_o in_o this_o phrase_n the_o apostle_n seem_v to_o allude_v to_o the_o ancient_a manner_n of_o baptise_v which_o be_v to_o dip_v the_o party_n unbaptise_v and_o as_o it_o be_v to_o bury_v they_o under_o water_n for_o a_o while_n and_o then_o to_o raise_v they_o up_o again_o out_o of_o it_o to_o represent_v the_o burial_n of_o the_o old_a man_n and_o our_o

this_o that_o he_o fear_v those_o word_n to_o draw_v out_o and_o lift_v up_o shall_v import_v that_o the_o person_n then_o baptize_v be_v such_o as_o be_v capable_a of_o be_v so_o draw_v and_o lift_v and_o so_o make_v the_o reader_n think_v that_o infant_n the_o proper_a person_n for_o such_o action_n to_o be_v do_v to_o it_o be_v no_o easy_a thing_n to_o imagine_v how_o they_o can_v be_v

then_o this_o testimony_n will_v do_v as_o much_o hurt_v to_o his_o cause_n one_o way_n whilst_o it_o prove_v infant_n baptism_n as_o old_a as_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o roman_n as_o it_o do_v it_o
