on_o by_o our_o lord_n be_v his_o own_o spiritual_a baptism_n even_o that_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o be_v so_o particular_o express_v as_o well_o as_o confirm_v by_o other_o phrase_n and_o

etc._n do_v signify_v spiritual_a baptism_n it_o be_v the_o subject_a of_o his_o discourse_n at_o that_o juncture_n though_o if_o he_o have_v intend_v water_n there_o have_v be_v a_o absolute_a

that_o spiritual_a baptism_n by_o which_o they_o may_v become_v child_n of_o god_n and_o heir_n of_o heaven_n six_o see_v it_o be_v this_o spiritual_a baptism_n the_o nation_n want_v therefore_o it_o be_v our_o saviour_n be_v so_o very_o particular_a and_o careful_a that_o the_o apostle_n shall_v tarry_v at_o jerusalem_n till_o they_o be_v baptize_v themselves_o for_o he_o know_v right_o well_o

can_v not_o be_v proper_a person_n to_o the_o begete_v of_o other_o and_o because_o our_o lord_n know_v this_o to_o be_v a_o extraordinary_a work_n which_o he_o have_v command_v they_o to_o so_o he_o
