A41583	Gospel-baptism or, plain proof, that the mode of dipping, plunging or immersion, now commonly used by the people called Anabaptists; is according to the primitive institution in a letter to Mr. Samuel Young. Occasioned by his sharp reflections in contempt of that way, and the defenders thereof in a small book, entituled, A second and last New-Years-Gift, &c. With some notes concering the true subject. By a lover of truth.	Minge, Thomas.	1700 (1700)	Wing G1312A; Wing M2190A; ESTC R221577	28,906	73

infant_n be_v church-member_n and_o so_o baptize_v coronation_n do_v not_o make_v a_o king_n but_o declare_v he_o so_o but_o king_n have_v become_v so_o by_o god_n choice_n immediate_o whereof_o the_o

of_o the_o table_n it_o look_v a_o kitchen_n one_o for_o such_o table_n be_v wont_a to_o be_v wash_v pag._n 24._o suppose_v you_o have_v a_o table_n equal_o dirty_a every_o where_n and_o your_o maid_n
