by_o which_o you_o go_v about_o to_o disprove_v this_o universal_a practice_n of_o the_o church_n you_o tell_v i_o augustine_n be_v not_o baptize_v till_o above_o 30_o year_n though_o educate_v as_o

of_o the_o church_n at_o this_o day_n if_o such_o shall_v from_o a_o few_o particular_a example_n infer_v that_o this_o be_v the_o doctrine_n common_o receive_v in_o the_o reform_a church_n that_o child_n shall_v not_o be_v baptize_v or_o deny_v that_o this_o be_v the_o common_a receive_v doctrine_n that_o child_n shall_v be_v baptize_v assure_o a_o man_n that_o know_v the_o doctrine_n and_o present_a practice_n of_o the_o church_n may_v with_o all_o reason_n deny_v the_o consequence_n because_o some_o among_o they_o do_v not_o stand_v for_o infant-baptisme_n therefore_o the_o

yet_o that_o be_v no_o way_n prejudicial_a to_o the_o universal_a practice_n of_o the_o church_n in_o which_o paedobaptism_n be_v receive_v but_o second_o i_o answer_v more_o particular_o i_o grant_v augustine_n be_v not_o baptize_v till_o he_o be_v 30_o year_n old_a and_o i_o will_v not_o take_v upon_o i_o to_o determine_v beside_o the_o general_a observation_n of_o the_o reason_n upon_o which_o baptism_n in_o those_o day_n be_v defer_v by_o some_o which_o former_o have_v be_v hint_v what_o the_o particular_a reason_n be_v of_o his_o not_o be_v baptize_v in_o his_o infancy_n but_o i_o will_v hold_v forth_o unto_o the_o reader_n so_o much_o as_o shall_v clear_o show_v that_o you_o have_v no_o cause_n from_o that_o example_n to_o say_v that_o child_n of_o christian_n by_o profession_n in_o that_o age_n be_v not_o baptize_v in_o th●ir_a infancy_n because_o you_o shall_v first_o prove_v that_o augustine_n his_o parent_n be_v christian_n at_o his_o birth_n otherwise_o you_o speak_v not_o
