a_o justice_n of_o peace_n there_o be_v divers_a particular_n in_o scripture_n out_o of_o which_o we_o can_v well_o draw_v general_a rule_n if_o we_o do_v we_o shall_v conclude_v many_o absurdity_n 2._o i_o answer_v that_o this_o be_v a_o extraordinary_a example_n and_o therefore_o can_v no_o more_o make_v a_o rule_n for_o ordinary_a action_n than_o moses_n his_o baptise_v in_o the_o cloud_n

answer_v 1._o that_o they_o make_v it_o more_o common_a many_o time_n than_o they_o need_v because_o they_o will_v be_v do_v and_o be_v account_v some_o body_n 2._o that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o

not_o in_o any_o love_n or_o reverence_n to_o the_o sacrament_n but_o for_o by_o respect_n she_o do_v not_o perform_v it_o in_o that_o reverend_a manner_n that_o sacrament_n use_v to_o be_v perform_v but_o very_o unreverent_o and_o furious_o both_o in_o deed_n word_n and_o gesture_n in_o deed_n she_o throw_v the_o fore_a skin_n in_o a_o anger_n at_o his_o foot_n in_o word_n a_o bloody_a husband_n

though_o god_n be_v please_v when_o the_o child_n be_v circumcise_v yet_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o therefore_o he_o be_v content_a with_o the_o manner_n of_o it_o or_o with_o the_o approve_v of_o
