A35294	A disputation between a doctor and an apothecary, or, A reply to the new argument of Dr. R. Burthogge, M.D. for infants baptism wherein the novelty in which it glories is justly censured and its harmony proved to be no better than self repugnancy and a manifest abuse of scripture / by Philip Cary, a neighbouring apothecary ...

be_v the_o same_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o which_o abraham_n whole_a house_n be_v circumcise_a that_o the_o reason_n be_v not_o the_o same_o be_v evident_a inasmuch_o as_o baptism_n do_v not_o
