sacrament_n in_o effect_n as_o papist_n do_v confirmation_n by_o baptism_n they_o bring_v the_o infant_n into_o the_o church_n and_o by_o confirmation_n make_v it_o a_o soldier_n of_o the_o church_n

of_o idolatry_n they_o say_v this_o be_v a_o ancient_a custom_n of_o the_o church_n well_o let_v it_o be_v yet_o that_o do_v not_o take_v away_o the_o abuse_n nor_o make_v it_o a_o jot_n the_o
