sent nor sought occasion but was invited and importuried and then how could I do less out of respect to my Office as a Minister of Jesus Christ I went not with a design to make a Proselyte as Mr. Wells hints p. 10. saying You could not prosclyte him yet if Mr. Wells's Friends had not been with him presently after me 't is probable my Advice might have done more good but now it is in vain to guess at it 〈◊〉 for if I did him any good it seems they quickly marr'd it If that Salve of Sprinkling in his Infancy were applied to him for his Spiritual Sore it might very well distract him What if it were not applied then here is just nothing said a Reply to no purpose But what a dreadful consequence doth Mr. Wells draw from thence supposing it were so then it might very well distract him A dreadful Reflection indeed a terrible Charge against Infant Baptism For my part I reflected only upon the unadvised Carriage of some Baptists and their rash Zeal to promote their Opinion and to make Proselytes their indirect and evil Practices their bold and bitter Speeches but I should have been ashamed to have branded their Doctrine thus Where Mr. Wells's Moderation is I know not it doth not appear in his Reply But I hope he doth not mean a perfect Distraction but only a little hurry of mind and that his next Words are exegetical and lessen the Sense as it follows and he n● suffer a little by such inconsiderate and blind Zeal Let it b● so taken even in the best Sense for the other is very foul an● grose And that the World may be sure to know who you mean you repeat the name Anabaptists as you falsely put upon them and say wh● they rather chose to call themselves Baptists Good Mr. Wells how did you read this Methinks you read as badly as you writ How could you say I repeated the Name Anabaptists What did you mistake Atheists in the Lines before for Anabaptists For I never repeated this Word Read Anabaptist twice if you can and surely Anabaptist and Baptist are not one and the same Name for you write your self a Baptist yet say I falsely put the Name Anabaptist upon you But why falsely put upon you 'T is the proper Name of those of your Opinion though it may be you like it not and if we call you Baptists it is a Favour which Favour I was willing to shew you I mean those of your Opinion but you acknowledge it not but are angry yea if we call you not Anabaptists we do in a sort disown our own Baptism and Principles about that point For we say and doubt not we are able to prove it that Infants are truly Baptized as well as the Adult But you Baptize such as were so Baptized in Infancy and therefore are Anabaptists and the Name truly agrees to you which signifies Rebaptizers For my part I am not for long and hard Names Sesquipedalia verba or else I had us'd that Name of Ca●apaedobaptists but I judged the other both proper and best known and I do not see why it should be a matter of Offence to you to use it I am sure 't is of no great Moment however I used these two promiscuously Anabaptist and Baptist not designing to reproach you by the Name no nor any otherwise seeking occasision so to do as you have too oft suggested but only to write most properly which is according to common speech and as may be best understood FINIS Reader I Would desire thee to be so Candid as to correct the Faults thou maist find and not to censure me too hardly for the ●ame for I could not be present at the Press and I am sensible that as I have suffered in this kind already so I may still suffer notwithstanding all the Care and Precaution I have used BOOKS Printed for John John Lawrence at the Angel in the Poultrey MR.
