A77749	Doctor Chamberlain visited with a bunch of his own grapes, gathered out of his own packet of letters: to know whether my answer to his question gave satisfaction, and that by his reply to partake of those rare gifts of the spirit, which he proffered to publish in Black-fryers Church. Also an answer to Dr Chamberlains reply, concerning sprinkling the baptized. / By Thomas Bakewel.	Bakewell, Thomas, b. 1618 or 19.	1650 (1650)	Wing B532; Thomason E601_4; ESTC R206402	21,189	30

he_o plunge_v they_o into_o that_o water_n but_o where_o be_v your_o syllogism_n mr_n doctor_n will_v it_o follow_v because_o that_o john_n be_v baptise_v in_o that_o country_n where_o be_v much_o

say_v the_o baptize_v may_v be_v under_o a_o drop_n as_o well_o as_o under_o a_o tun_n but_o i_o say_v the_o thing_n be_v a_o truth_n yet_o as_o i_o say_v before_o there_o be_v no_o necessity_n to_o

gather_v that_o to_o neglect_v the_o duty_n be_v abominable_a and_o to_o plunge_v all_o over_o be_v more_o than_o sufficient_a here_o you_o find_v a_o word_n mistake_v by_o the_o printer_n say_v thou_o have_v no_o part_n in_o i_o which_o shall_v be_v with_o i_o which_o can_v be_v no_o design_n of_o i_o in_o it_o but_o for_o this_o you_o say_v almost_o all_o the_o scripture_n that_o i_o quote_v i_o mistake_v something_o which_o show_v the_o rankor_n of_o your_o spirit_n but_o i_o pass_v it_o not_o but_o then_o because_o i_o say_v that_o wash_v be_v sacramental_a you_o say_v why_o then_o do_v not_o your_o minister_n wash_v the_o foot_n of_o infant_n rather_o than_o sprinkle_v the_o face_n which_o christ_n never_o do_v ans_fw-fr although_o it_o be_v sacramental_a to_o show_v the_o signification_n of_o baptism_n yet_o to_o wash_v the_o foot_n be_v not_o give_v in_o charge_n as_o a_o rule_n for_o the_o church_n but_o on_o what_o part_n the_o church_n shall_v see_v most_o
