A86328	The foundation of the font discovered to the view of all that desire to behold it. And, the baptizing of men and women when they believe (in rivers and fountains) proved to be a standing ordinance in the Church of Cchrist to the end of the world; by plain Scripture-proof. In answer to Mr. Cook's Font uncovered, for infant-baptism; and Mr. Baxter's Plain Scripture-proof for infants church-membership and baptism. With a word sometimes upon occasion to Mr. Hall's Font-guarded; which is more fully answered by Thomas Collyer. By Henry Haggar, a servant of Christ, and the congregations of his saints.

in_o their_o head_n before_o yet_o mr._n baxter_n like_o a_o diligent_a servant_n have_v do_v it_o now_o second_o as_o concern_v his_o new-found_a disease_n he_o talk_v of_o i_o shall_v ask_v he_o two_o question_n first_o whether_o he_o can_v say_v in_o his_o conscience_n that_o he_o ever_o do_v know_v of_o his_o own_o knowledge_n any_o baptize_v person_n die_v of_o it_o or_o fall_v into_o any_o of_o these_o disease_n afterward_o i_o question_v not_o if_o he_o have_v know_v any_o such_o he_o will_v have_v put_v down_o their_o name_n in_o his_o book_n although_o all_o rational_a people_n know_v that_o they_o may_v fall_v into_o some_o disease_n after_o they_o be_v dip_v in_o water_n and_o yet_o that_o not_o be_v in_o the_o cause_n of_o it_o no_o more_o than_o it_o be_v to_o they_o that_o never_o be_v dip_v again_o we_o have_v through_o mercy_n plenty_n of_o faithful_a witness_n both_o old_a and_o young_a gentlewoman_n and_o lady_n wise_a and_o honourable_a with_o many_o other_o people_n both_o of_o strong_a and_o weak_a constitution_n that_o can_v prove_v mr._n baxter_n a_o false_a accuser_n and_o a_o inventor_n of_o evil_a thing_n in_o this_o particular_a and_o as_o for_o my_o own_o part_n i_o can_v bold_o say_v with_o a_o good_a conscience_n in_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n to_o his_o glory_n that_o i_o have_v know_v many_o weak_a and_o sickly_a before_o that_o have_v recover_v health_n and_o strength_n afterward_o and_o some_o immediate_o in_o a_o few_o day_n yea_o and_o that_o when_o they_o have_v be_v so_o ill_o that_o all_o doctor_n have_v give_v they_o over_o but_o i_o never_o know_v any_o miscarry_n in_o my_o life_n so_o mighty_o have_v god_n go_v along_o with_o we_o own_v his_o own_o ordinance_n if_o any_o shall_v be_v so_o foolish_a as_o to_o say_v that_o people_n become_v ranter_n afterward_o and_o that_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o judgement_n and_o not_o of_o god_n own_v it_o as_o his_o own_o ordinance_n i_o answer_v that_o be_v after_o they_o be_v again_o go_v away_o from_o the_o faith_n and_o deny_v the_o ordinance_n of_o christ_n which_o once_o they_o own_v then_o as_o peter_n say_v it_o have_v be_v better_a for_o they_o that_o they_o have_v never_o know_v the_o way_n of_o truth_n then_o after_o they_o have_v know_v it_o to_o turn_v from_o the_o holy_a commandment_n once_o deliver_v to_o they_o but_o more_o of_o this_o in_o answer_n to_o his_o last_o argument_n my_o second_o question_n be_v to_o mr._n baxter_n whether_o he_o be_v not_o convince_v in_o his_o conscience_n that_o some_o or_o all_o of_o these_o disease_n that_o he_o
