for_o the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n that_o which_o be_v signify_v by_o the_o water_n to_o speak_v exact_o be_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n not_o the_o blood_n in_o the_o live_a body_n but_o the_o blood_n that_o be_v spill_v and_o shed_v upon_o the_o ground_n prefigure_v in_o the_o law_n by_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n which_o be_v sprinkle_v upon_o the_o unclean_a for_o the_o purify_n of_o the_o flesh_n the_o blood_n of_o bull_n and_o goat_n be_v shadow_n of_o prefiguration_n but_o the_o body_n be_v christ_n who_o blood_n do_v wash_v and_o clean_v the_o soul_n from_o sin_n and_o be_v signify_v by_o the_o water_n in_o baptism_n q._n how_o can_v this_o be_v may_z some_z say_v when_o as_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v signify_v by_o the_o wine_n in_o the_o lord_n supper_n for_o answer_v hereunto_o we_o shall_v do_v well_o to_o remember_v what_o saint_n john_n have_v relate_v in_o his_o gospel_n viz._n that_o upon_o the_o pierce_a and_o gore_v of_o christ_n side_n whit-sunday_n there_o come_v forth_o blood_n and_o water_n what_o water_n be_v this_o not_o any_o miraculous_a humour_n much_o less_o the_o corruption_n of_o blood_n in_o pleuritic_n body_n but_o that_o watery_a substance_n which_o anatomist_n do_v find_v in_o the_o pericardium_n place_v there_o by_o nature_n as_o it_o may_v seem_v for_o the_o refrigeration_n of_o the_o heart_n now_o for_o the_o full_a manifestation_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n it_o please_v the_o providence_n of_o god_n to_o make_v use_n of_o the_o malice_n of_o the_o soldier_n to_o pierce_v the_o pericardium_n and_o gore_v the_o heart_n which_o be_v do_v it_o be_v impossible_a for_o any_o one_o to_o live_v and_o this_o watery_a substance_n be_v that_o which_o the_o water_n of_o purification_n and_o the_o water_n of_o baptism_n do_v proper_o signify_v the_o which_o t●o_fw-la in_o propriety_n of_o nature_n it_o differ_v from_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o vital_a vessel_n viz._n the_o heart_n and_o the_o liver_n run_v in_o the_o vein_n and_o artery_n yet_o in_o common_a phrase_n it_o be_v call_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n which_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v represent_v in_o both_o the_o sacrament_n hence_o there_o be_v a_o different_a respect_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n shed_v for_o expiation_n and_o a_o twofold_a use_n of_o it_o after_o the_o effusion_n viz._n partly_o for_o nutrition_n in_o the_o supper_n partly_o for_o ablution_n and_o purgation_n as_o in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n hence_o be_v those_o phrase_n of_o wash_v and_o cleanse_v so_o 22.16_o frequent_a in_o the_o new_a testament_n this_o be_v that_o fountain_n which_o be_v set_v open_a for_o sin_n 5.26_o and_o for_o uncleanness_n 3.5_o thus_o in_o the_o new_a testament_n as_o well_o as_o in_o the_o old_a all_o thing_n be_v purge_v by_o blood_n hebrew_n 9.22_o 22_o thus_o both_o sacrament_n have_v special_a relation_n to_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n which_o the_o phrase_n of_o scripture_n do_v manifest_a for_o of_o baptism_n it_o be_v say_v that_o by_o it_o we_o be_v baptize_v into_o his_o death_n and_o bury_v with_o christ_n rom._n 6.4_o col._n 2.12_o and_o the_o supper_n be_v the_o remembrance_n and_o commemoration_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n 1_o cor._n 11_o 26._o and_o this_o do_v full_o manifest_a unto_o we_o what_o that_o grace_n be_v which_o be_v signify_v in_o the_o sacrament_n and_o how_o the_o word_n grace_v use_v in_o the_o definition_n of_o a_o sacrament_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v doubtless_o hereby_o be_v mean_v not_o a_o quality_n infuse_v but_o a_o
