water_n baptism_n as_o people_n do_v in_o our_o day_n while_o it_o be_v plain_a from_o peter_n own_o word_n afterward_o that_o he_o exclude_v it_o from_o have_v any_o part_n in_o man_n salvation_n by_o say_v this_o 1_o pet._n 3._o 21._o the_o like_a figure_n whereunto_o even_o baptism_n do_v now_o also_o save_v we_o not_o the_o put_v away_o the_o filth_n of_o the_o flesh_n which_v elementary_a water_n only_o do_v but_o the_o answer_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n towards_o god_n etc._n etc._n now_o reader_n judge_v whether_o peter_n or_o the_o holy_a spirit_n in_o he_o do_v hereby_o teach_v recommend_v or_o establish_v a_o divine_a authority_n for_o water_n baptism_n as_o the_o bp._n suggest_v the_o bp._n end_v this_o paragraph_n thus_o these_o for_o a_o taste_n single_a instance_n under_o each_o head_n must_v suffice_v and_o say_v we_o they_o be_v a_o taste_n but_o it_o be_v of_o the_o bp_n great_a unfairness_n to_o represent_v w._n p._n wrong_v rather_o than_o of_o w_n p_n

the_o bp._n account_v these_o that_o follow_v one_a calumnious_a and_o spiteful_a insinuation_n that_o he_o the_o bp._n believe_v not_o the_o thirty_o nine_o arlicles_n answ_n a_o high_a charge_n for_o a_o imaginary_a crime_n and_o whether_o w._n p._n be_v guilty_a or_o not_o let_v the_o reader_n judge_v by_o what_o follow_v w._n p._n in_o his_o defence_n p._n 33._o there_o assert_n that_o
