some_o other_o none_o a._n it_o be_v the_o religious_a custom_n of_o the_o primitive_a time_n to_o spend_v a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o night_n before_o the_o holiday_n in_o watch_n and_o prayer_n to_o prepare_v they_o for_o the_o more_o solemn_a observation_n of_o those_o feast_n and_o to_o signify_v that_o we_o shall_v be_v as_o the_o bless_a saint_n be_v after_o a_o little_a time_n of_o

either_o they_o fall_v betwixt_o easter_n and_o whitsunday_n or_o betwixt_o christmas_n and_o epiphany_n which_o the_o church_n hold_v for_o such_o time_n of_o joy_n and_o festivity_n that_o they_o will_v not_o have_v one_o day_n among_o they_o sully_v by_o pensive_a sorrow_n and_o fast_v of_o the_o office_n of_o baptism_n quest_n why_o be_v the_o place_n where_o the_o office_n of_o baptism_n be_v administer_v call_v the_o font_n a._n the_o rite_n of_o baptism_n in_o the_o first_o time_n be_v perform_v in_o fountain_n and_o river_n because_o the_o convert_v be_v many_o and_o those_o age_n

a._n because_o it_o be_v as_o well_o a_o confession_n of_o faith_n as_o a_o epitome_n or_o sum_n of_o the_o whole_a litany_n q._n why_o do_v we_o pray_v to_o every_o person_n in_o the_o holy_a

or_o property_n q._n why_o be_v the_o divine_a essence_n sometime_o call_v unity_n and_o sometime_o trinity_n a._n because_o the_o divine_a essence_n common_a to_o all_o the_o three_o person_n be_v
