In a word, in the insuing discourse, the vanity of all novell opinions is discovered, the ignorance of all the which can no way hinder any mans happinesse: and the baptisme of little children borne of Christian parents, whether Iewes or Gentiles, is proved by the word of God to be lawfull, ... / By Iohn Bastwick, Doctor in Physick.

if_o i_o steadfast_o to_o the_o last_o period_n of_o my_o life_n hold_v that_o all_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o independent_o be_v mere_a novelty_n and_o their_o own_o invention_n and_o that_o any_o
