in_o my_o apology_n pag._n 6._o that_o i_o rest_v whole_o on_o 1_o cor._n 7._o 14._o for_o many_o year_n and_o that_o text_n mr._n b._n call_v a_o full_a plain_a text_n and_o dr._n hammond_n in_o effect_n build_v all_o his_o proof_n for_o infant-baptism_n upon_o it_o and_o therefore_o mr._n b._n may_v have_v perceive_v his_o mistake_n concern_v i_o if_o he_o have_v heed_v my_o book_n if_o some_o divine_n have_v argue_v weak_o for_o infant-baptism_n use_v some_o unfit_a phrase_n and_o bring_v some_o misapply_v scripture_n as_o he_o say_v i_o be_o sure_a mr._n b._n have_v reason_n to_o number_v himself_o among_o they_o if_o he_o be_v not_o the_o man_n who_o have_v in_o all_o these_o outstrip_v they_o i_o wish_v he_o have_v hold_v his_o resolution_n of_o not_o heap_v up_o many_o argument_n it_o will_v have_v save_v i_o much_o labour_n to_o his_o word_n whatsoever_o mr._n t._n may_v pretend_v among_o the_o simple_a i_o shall_v easy_o prove_v that_o infant-baptism_n be_v use_v in_o the_o church_n as_o high_a to_o the_o apostle_n day_n as_o there_o be_v any_o sufficient_a history_n extant_a to_o inform_v we_o and_o that_o the_o defer_v of_o baptism_n come_v in_o with_o the_o rest_n of_o popery_n upon_o popish_a or_o heretical_a ground_n i_o answer_v 1._o that_o my_o pretence_n about_o the_o innovation_n of_o infant-baptism_n be_v not_o among_o the_o simple_a as_o he_o will_v insinuate_v but_o among_o the_o most_o learned_a for_o who_o examination_n my_o allegation_n be_v obvious_a in_o print_n 2._o that_o his_o assertion_n concern_v the_o antiquity_n of_o infant-baptism_n be_v most_o inconsiderate_a there_o be_v nothing_o in_o ignatius_n clemens_n alexandrinus_n eusebius_n epiphanius_n and_o other_o the_o most_o approve_a history_n and_o author_n for_o his_o assertion_n and_o for_o those_o be_v bring_v the_o high_a be_v pope_n hyginus_n who_o word_n he_o allege_v out_o of_o his_o decree_n which_o i_o conceive_v have_v be_v in_o his_o epistle_n

prideaux_n one_o of_o mr._n bs._n own_o author_n for_o this_o decree_n of_o pope_n hyginus_n about_o gossip_n though_o he_o make_v mention_n of_o it_o where_o he_o speak_v of_o that_o pope_n compend_v of_o history_n cap._n 7._o sect._n 3_o inter_v 7._o yet_o after_o among_o many_o of_o his_o inquiry_n this_o be_v the_o three_o whether_o it_o be_v likely_a that_o these_o religious_a pope_n in_o such_o extreme_a persecution_n have_v liberty_n or_o list_v to_o think_v on_o make_v cardinal_n or_o gossip_n and_o introduce_v a_o rabble_n of_o beggarly_a ceremony_n and_o though_o i_o be_v mistake_v in_o call_v that_o decree_n of_o hyginus_n the_o decree_n in_o the_o epistle_n yet_o i_o think_v the_o author_n which_o censure_v the_o decretal_a epistle_n do_v comprehend_v the_o decree_n ascribe_v to_o those_o first_o pope_n among_o those_o forge_a write_n under_o that_o name_n however_o what_o i_o have_v produce_v be_v enough_o to_o justify_v my_o speech_n in_o my_o praecursor_n that_o the_o decree_n ascribe_v to_o pope_n hyginus_n about_o gossip_n be_v so_o manifest_a a_o forgery_n that_o i_o can_v hardly_o have_v imagine_v any_o learned_a protestant_n will_v ever_o have_v allege_v so_o notorious_o forge_v a_o writing_n so_o that_o i_o need_v not_o answer_v mr._n bs._n allegation_n of_o this_o testimony_n as_o by_o currant_n consent_n of_o historian_n assure_v we_o that_o hyginus_n bishop_n of_o rome_n do_v first_o ordain_v godfather_n and_o godmother_n at_o the_o baptise_v of_o infant_n and_o his_o question_n thereon_o but_o by_o tell_v he_o he_o have_v reason_n to_o be_v ashamed_a of_o abuse_v man_n with_o this_o forgery_n after_o so_o much_o eviction_n of_o it_o by_o learned_a man_n be_v more_o like_o a_o brazen_a face_a allegation_n than_o that_o he_o so_o censure_v i_o for_o without_o cause_n the_o next_o of_o his_o allegation_n be_v justin_n martyr_n from_o who_o beside_o the_o bastard_n write_v of_o question_n and_o answer_n ad_fw-la orthodoxos_fw-la all_o the_o rest_n allege_v pag._n 156._o by_o mr._n b._n be_v manifest_o impertinent_a and_o his_o genuine_a writing_n yield_v a_o good_a evidence_n against_o the_o use_n of_o infant-baptism_n as_o unknown_a to_o he_o as_o may_v appear_v by_o what_o be_v say_v before_o mr._n b._n in_o his_o praefestinantis_fw-la morator_fw-la say_v sect._n 3_o see_v you_o deny_v nothing_o in_o justin_n martyr_n word_n you_o must_v yield_v that_o it_o be_v know_v to_o mother_n that_o their_o infant_n be_v of_o god_n kingdom_n and_o then_o certain_o they_o be_v church-member_n and_o know_v disciple_n or_o christian_n to_o which_o i_o reply_v that_o i_o have_v not_o justin_n martyr_v now_o by_o i_o and_o do_v doubt_n whether_o in_o that_o passage_n of_o the_o epistle_n ad_fw-la zenam_fw-la &_o serenum_fw-la he_o do_v mean_a infant_n since_o the_o term_n be_v child_n which_o may_v be_v mean_v of_o person_n who_o be_v come_v to_o some_o age_n capable_a of_o understanding_n and_o if_o the_o word_n be_v mean_v of_o infant_n yet_o it_o may_v be_v very_o well_o conceive_v that_o the_o meaning_n be_v that_o of_o such_o be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n that_o be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o glory_n and_o that_o not_o in_o respect_n of_o their_o present_n but_o future_a estate_n as_o when_o it_o be_v say_v matth._n 5._o 10._o bless_a be_v they_o which_o be_v persecute_v for_o righteousness_n sake_n for_o they_o be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n that_o be_v they_o shall_v have_v a_o great_a reward_n in_o heaven_n vers_fw-la 12._o and_o then_o it_o neither_o prove_v their_o present_a be_v of_o god_n visible_a kingdom_n nor_o that_o they_o be_v church-member_n and_o know_v disciple_n or_o christian_n and_o to_o be_v baptize_v this_o testimony_n for_o the_o antiquity_n of_o infant-baptism_n i_o remember_v
