christ_n if_o you_o can_v tell_v where_o for_o the_o exemplify_a of_o your_o baby_n baptise_v rantize_v and_o further_a have_v you_o chance_v to_o be_v bear_v and_o breed_v in_o such_o hot_a country_n where_o dip_v be_v the_o custom_n as_o you_o happen_v to_o come_v out_o in_o such_o a_o cold_a climate_n where_o for_o fear_v of_o cold_a more_o than_o any_o thing_n else_o that_o be_v to_o warrant_v such_o a_o practice_n the_o custom_n be_v only_o to_o sprinkle_v i_o appeal_v to_o your_o own_o conscience_n whether_o such_o a_o thing_n as_o rantize_v will_v once_o have_v come_v into_o your_o mind_n upon_o the_o single_a search_n of_o those_o scripture_n three_o whereas_o you_o talk_v of_o dip_v as_o the_o way_n of_o baptise_v in_o those_o hot_a country_n both_o mr._n baxter_n and_o mr._n cook_n also_o p._n 15._o assert_v that_o in_o those_o hot_a country_n water_n for_o dip_v be_v scarce_o and_o rare_a and_o can_v not_o be_v have_v in_o some_o place_n in_o a_o great_a distance_n and_o therefore_o if_o sprinkle_v or_o pour_v only_o must_v be_v use_v in_o some_o country_n and_o dip_v in_o other_o some_o in_o all_o reason_n and_o likelihood_n if_o any_o place_n may_v be_v exempt_v from_o dip_v sprinkle_v shall_v be_v dispense_v with_o rather_o in_o those_o hot_a country_n to_o save_v people_n the_o pain_n of_o travel_v so_o far_o as_o they_o must_v do_v for_o dip_v where_o the_o water_n be_v at_o such_o a_o distance_n from_o they_o and_o dip_v rather_o appoint_v to_o be_v use_v in_o these_o country_n where_o the_o service_n as_o it_o be_v not_o much_o more_o tedious_a than_o it_o be_v in_o judaea_n at_o least_o in_o cold_a and_o sharp_a season_n so_o may_v it_o be_v moderate_v as_o touch_v the_o tediousness_n thereof_o by_o be_v do_v and_o dispatch_v through_o the_o vicinity_n of_o water_n here_o not_o very_o far_o off_o from_o our_o own_o door_n four_o even_o those_o hot_a country_n of_o judaea_n rome_n and_o the_o region_n thereabout_o be_v not_o within_o the_o torrid_a zone_n nor_o so_o hot_a but_o that_o if_o cold_a water_n will_v have_v quench_v love_n to_o christ_n and_o pretence_n of_o danger_n discharge_v from_o duty_n they_o may_v have_v be_v as_o shy_a as_o yourselves_o of_o be_v dip_v in_o water_n for_o even_o there_o the_o water_n say_v mr._n black_a be_v over_o cold_a for_o such_o a_o service_n and_o also_o this_o cold_o country_n as_o you_o count_v it_o of_o england_n be_v under_o the_o tepid_a zone_n and_o not_o so_o exceed_o cold_a in_o summer_n season_n but_o that_o dip_v may_v be_v as_o well_o digest_v then_o as_o in_o judaea_n or_o as_o it_o be_v by_o such_o as_o then_o wash_v themselves_o in_o way_n of_o pleasure_n this_o hot_a country_n catch_v therefore_o be_v a_o argument_n that_o flash_v fair_o in_o the_o pan_n and_o make_v a_o report_n with_o a_o powder_n for_o almost_o every_o one_o le_fw-fr we_o fly_v at_o we_o out_o of_o this_o engine_n but_o very_o it_o be_v a_o empty_a engine_n a_o piece_n discharge_v to_o keep_v cold_a country_n christian_n from_o kill_v themselves_o with_o christ_n service_n but_o charge_v with_o no_o great_a store_n of_o truth_n nor_o sense_n nor_o reason_n wherefore_o sir_n if_o the_o coldness_n of_o this_o service_n of_o total_a dip_v do_v cause_n you_o to_o stand_v so_o cold_o affect_v towards_o it_o as_o not_o to_o submit_v to_o it_o here_o in_o england_n unless_o the_o climate_n be_v a_o little_o hot_a yet_o at_o least_o let_v we_o who_o by_o dip_v as_o weak_a folk_n as_o yourselves_o in_o winter_n have_v experience_v how_o tolerable_a it_o be_v through_o christ_n strengthen_v we_o for_o christ_n sake_n to_o be_v with_o paul_n in_o cold_a and_o peril_n of_o water_n so_o you_o suppose_v it_o be_v to_o be_v dip_v as_o well_o as_o in_o other_o hardship_n let_v we_o i_o say_v who_o be_v willing_a to_o venture_v on_o the_o way_n of_o dip_v proceed_v without_o your_o offence_n and_o as_o for_o we_o we_o shall_v in_o order_n to_o your_o good_a be_v so_o far_o offend_v at_o your_o neglect_n of_o it_o as_o incessant_o to_o call_v upon_o you_o and_o you_o to_o repent_v and_o be_v so_o baptize_v every_o one_o of_o you_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n till_o you_o can_v show_v we_o as_o i_o be_o sure_a you_o never_o will_v his_o letter_n patent_n for_o your_o exemption_n ranti_v but_o mr._n cook_n force_v this_o argument_n further_o yet_o and_o tell_v you_o that_o their_o custom_n of_o be_v dip_v enforce_v we_o to_o the_o same_o no_o more_o than_o the_o gesture_n that_o christ_n use_v at_o supper_n bind_v we_o to_o the_o same_o you_o be_v willing_a to_o overlook_v that_o perhaps_o have_v little_a or_o nothing_o to_o say_v to_o it_o but_o i_o pray_v take_v all_o along_o with_o you_o as_o you_o go_v and_o be_v not_o so_o partial_a as_o to_o pick_v out_o what_o be_v easy_a to_o be_v answer_v and_o let_v the_o rest_n alone_o baptist._n as_o for_o that_o poor_a piece_n of_o sustenance_n that_o mr._n cook_n afford_v beyond_o all_o the_o rest_n towards_o the_o further_a improvement_n of_o this_o exception_n which_o from_o the_o hea●_n of_o those_o country_n you_o make_v against_o the_o example_n of_o dip_v in_o the_o primitive_a time_n it_o have_v no_o substance_n in_o it_o whereupon_o your_o cause_n can_v possible_o live_v for_o though_o he_o say_v their_o go_v into_o the_o water_n then_o and_o be_v dip_v therein_o no_o more_o enforce_v we_o to_o observe_v the_o same_o in_o baptism_n than_o the_o example_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n gesture_n in_o the_o supper_n which_o be_v lean_v and_o partly_o lie_v tie_v we_o to_o the_o same_o but_o as_o the_o table_n gesture_n of_o sit_v now_o in_o use_n among_o we_o be_v fit_a for_o the_o supper_n so_o the_o usual_a way_n of_o wash_v which_o be_v by_o pour_v as_o well_o as_o dip_v be_v fit_a to_o be_v observe_v in_o baptism_n yet_o i_o desire_v mr._n cook_n to_o consider_v these_o thing_n first_o that_o if_o the_o priesthood_n have_v but_o any_o such_o clear_a example_n of_o their_o be_v sprinkle_v in_o the_o primitive_a time_n as_o we_o have_v of_o their_o go_v down_o into_o the_o water_n and_o be_v dip_v there_o they_o will_v enforce_v we_o with_o more_o than_o argument_n to_o a_o observation_n of_o the_o very_a same_o yea_o how_o hardly_o have_v we_o escape_v be_v enforce_v by_o they_o from_o dip_v though_o they_o have_v not_o a_o inch_n of_o instance_n for_o their_o sprinkle_n second_o there_o be_v a_o vast_a difference_n between_o a_o example_n in_o point_n of_o circumstance_n and_o mere_a gesture_n about_o a_o service_n and_o the_o very_a substance_n of_o the_o service_n itself_o variation_n from_o christ_n example_n in_o the_o first_o be_v naught_o enough_o but_o in_o the_o other_o worse_a than_o nothing_o yet_o even_o such_o be_v your_o degeneration_n from_o dip_v to_o sprinkle_v from_o baptism_n to_o rantism_n viz._n not_o a_o variation_n from_o some_o certain_a circumstance_n in_o that_o one_o matter_n of_o baptism_n but_o a_o variation_n from_o the_o ordinanance_n itself_o a_o do_v not_o what_o christ_n do_v in_o another_o manner_n but_o a_o do_v of_o another_o matter_n than_o christ_n do_v dip_v with_o the_o face_n upward_o and_o with_o the_o face_n downward_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n still_o though_o in_o a_o different_a gesture_n and_o to_o satisfy_v mr._n simpson_n who_o in_o his_o letter_n scarce_o think_v it_o a_o burial_n in_o baptism_n if_o the_o face_n be_v not_o upward_o and_o the_o water_n pour_v on_o as_o the_o earth_n be_v on_o they_o we_o bury_v with_o their_o face_n upward_o whether_o this_o way_n or_o that_o way_n be_v not_o so_o much_o material_a if_o there_o be_v a_o total_a cover_n and_o overwhelm_v with_o either_o earth_n or_o water_n it_o be_v a_o true_a burial_n still_o notwithstanding_o but_o dip_v and_o sprinkle_v be_v two_o such_o diverse_a thing_n that_o the_o first_o be_v both_o baptism_n and_o burial_n in_o baptism_n but_o the_o second_o neither_o the_o one_o nor_o yet_o the_o other_o three_o and_o yet_o the_o gesture_n be_v so_o fa●_n to_o be_v heed_v in_o every_o ordinance_n that_o if_o we_o know_v any_o one_o to_o be_v better_a than_o another_o and_o more_o assure_o to_o be_v that_o which_o christ_n and_o his_o disciple_n use_v i_o suppose_v we_o be_v bind_v if_o not_o of_o necessity_n not_o
