A77739	A confutation of the Anabaptists, and all others who affect not civill government; proving the lawfullnesse of it: and a full answer to all their cavills, that are, or can be made against it. With a nut-cracker for an unnaturall nut, whose shell is as hard as the scales of Leviathan, and the kernell of his heart as hard as a piece of the nether mill-stone, Iob 41.15.24. yet the hammer of Gods word that breaketh in pieces the rocks, Ier. 23.29. will break this nut, that all may see the devillish kernell that is in it. Also arguments against the Anabaptists, proving that infants borne of Christian parents ought to be baptized: with a full answer to all their cavills that are (or can be) made against it.

now_o to_o know_v what_o a_o oath_n be_v we_o shall_v see_v by_o the_o part_n of_o it_o which_o be_v two_o confession_n and_o imprecation_n confession_n be_v threefold_a though_o for_o the_o outward_a

these_o four_o case_n a_o man_n may_v lawful_o swear_v not_o only_o before_o the_o magistrate_n but_o also_o private_o so_o it_o be_v with_o due_a reverence_n and_o good_a conscience_n but_o in_o
