the_o text_n do_v not_o say_v be_v any_o man_n sick_a unto_o death_n it_o appear_v that_o by_o be_v almost_o at_o the_o point_n of_o death_n he_o mean_v the_o case_n of_o a_o man_n that_o be_v in_o all_o appearance_n to_o die_v present_o notwithstanding_o unction_n and_o upon_o who_o therefore_o the_o effect_n of_o st._n james_n unction_n be_v not_o to_o take_v place_n i_o may_v make_v this_o as_o plain_a from_o that_o other_o effect_v too_o of_o st._n james_n unction_n which_o be_v conditional_a forgiveness_n of_o sin_n whereas_o according_a to_o the_o cardinal_n and_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o matter_n your_o unction_n tend_v direct_o to_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n and_o now_o have_v prove_v it_o i_o say_v that_o the_o cardinal_n do_v absolute_o exclude_v the_o one_o as_o the_o defender_n say_v he_o do_v though_o he_o do_v not_o use_v those_o very_a word_n mark_v what_o i_o say_v he_o absolute_o exclude_v your_o unction_n from_o be_v mean_v by_o st._n james_n and_o which_o i_o have_v almost_o forget_v whereas_o you_o put_v the_o word_n rather_o into_o a_o different_a character_n as_o if_o you_o will_v beg_v the_o reader_n to_o take_v notice_n of_o it_o be_v it_o know_v to_o you_o that_o it_o can_v do_v you_o no_o manner_n of_o service_n since_o there_o be_v no_o phrase_n more_o common_a than_o to_o express_v sometime_o absolute_a say_n by_o comparative_a one_o as_o at_o other_o time_n comparative_a one_o by_o absolute_a thus_o when_o it_o be_v say_v let_v he_o that_o steal_v steal_v no_o more_o but_o rather_o let_v he_o labour_v and_o neither_o filthiness_n 4._o eph._n 4.28_o v._o 4._o nor_o foolish_a talk_n etc._n etc._n but_o rather_o give_v of_o thanks_o i_o be_o confident_a you_o will_v confess_v that_o steal_v and_o filthiness_n be_v absolute_o exclude_v notwithstanding_o the_o word_n rather_o by_o this_o time_n i_o suppose_v you_o be_v satisfy_v that_o the_o parallel_a case_n by_o which_o you_o will_v make_v your_o own_o clear_a be_v nothing_o at_o all_o to_o the_o purpose_n or_o rather_o i_o believe_v you_o know_v it_o and_o all_o these_o thing_n before_o that_o i_o have_v now_o offer_v but_o you_o will_v not_o be_v quiet_a till_o the_o world_n know_v they_o too_o something_o however_o must_v be_v say_v to_o your_o parallel_n case_n which_o be_v this_o suppose_v i_o shall_v tell_v you_o you_o can_v positive_o prove_v from_o that_o passage_n go_v you_o baptise_v all_o nation_n etc._n etc._n nor_o from_o any_o other_o scripture_n without_o the_o general_a practice_n and_o authority_n of_o the_o church_n that_o infant_n be_v to_o be_v baptize_v i_o suppose_v you_o will_v not_o deny_v i_o that_o proposition_n but_o shall_v i_o say_v that_o passage_n and_o all_o the_o other_o in_o scripture_n concern_v baptism_n can_v belong_v to_o no_o other_o but_o to_o adult_n i_o persuade_v myself_o you_o will_v not_o ready_o give_v i_o your_o assent_n and_o if_o this_o be_v not_o a_o parallel_n case_n with_o the_o other_o pray_v show_v the_o difference_n with_o all_o my_o heart_n sir_n and_o because_o you_o shall_v have_v no_o occasion_n to_o run_v into_o other_o matter_n i_o will_v take_v your_o supposition_n in_o every_o part_n of_o it_o and_o suppose_v it_o all_o myself_o i_o say_v then_o that_o the_o case_n be_v not_o parallel_v but_o as_o cross_v to_o the_o other_o as_o any_o one_o you_o can_v have_v well_o choose_v for_o there_o be_v this_o difference_n that_o on_o the_o one_o side_n the_o baptise_v of_o all_o nation_n be_v not_o there_o limit_v to_o adult_v person_n and_o therefore_o exclude_v not_o the_o baptise_v of_o infant_n so_o that_o though_o i_o can_v not_o prove_v from_o that_o or_o from_o any_o other_o passage_n in_o scripture_n that_o infant_n be_v to_o be_v baptize_v yet_o from_o that_o and_o such_o like_a place_n i_o can_v not_o conclude_v that_o baptism_n do_v belong_v to_o no_o other_o but_o adult_n because_o the_o baptism_n of_o these_o be_v leave_v to_o be_v consistent_a with_o the_o baptism_n of_o infant_n and_o the_o same_o word_n may_v include_v both_o but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n that_o unction_n which_o be_v give_v to_o those_o who_o be_v sick_a unto_o death_n can_v possible_o be_v mean_v in_o those_o word_n which_o prescribe_v a_o unction_n the_o effect_n whereof_o be_v this_o that_o the_o sick_a person_n shall_v not_o die_v but_o recover_v and_o that_o because_o life_n and_o death_n be_v two_o thing_n of_o which_o if_o you_o say_v the_o one_o do_v what_o you_o can_v you_o unsay_v the_o other_o and_o therefore_o he_o who_o say_v that_o the_o word_n of_o st._n james_n speak_v of_o the_o unction_n that_o be_v for_o life_n do_v not_o only_o say_v that_o the_o unction_n for_o the_o point_n of_o death_n be_v not_o prove_v from_o they_o but_z if_o he_o be_v a_o man_n of_o sense_n as_o the_o cardinal_n be_v he_o do_v in_o effect_n say_v that_o it_o can_v be_v prove_v from_o they_o and_o that_o the_o word_n can_v belong_v only_o to_o bodily_a cure_n or_o to_o the_o case_n of_o those_o person_n who_o recover_v by_o unction_n and_o this_o be_v so_o substantial_a a_o difference_n between_o the_o two_o case_n that_o i_o shall_v be_v ashamed_a to_o show_v any_o other_o and_o i_o think_v sir_n you_o have_v some_o little_a cause_n to_o be_v ashamed_a of_o give_v i_o this_o needless_a trouble_n we_o feel_v what_o adversary_n we_o have_v and_o must_v be_v content_a to_o undergo_v this_o drudgery_n of_o answer_v what_o they_o please_v to_o put_v to_o we_o though_o we_o have_v not_o so_o mean_v a_o opinion_n of_o they_o as_o to_o think_v that_o they_o can_v not_o answer_v it_o themselves_o but_o one_o comfort_n be_v that_o your_o objection_n and_o accusation_n be_v so_o weak_a that_o a_o very_a little_a time_n serve_v to_o show_v that_o they_o be_v so_o which_o be_v all_o i_o mean_v by_o promise_v you_o some_o account_n of_o your_o reply_n from_o the_o defender_n in_o a_o month._n no_o boast_v i_o assure_v you_o sir_n of_o a_o talon_n of_o answer_v book_n so_o quick_o for_o what_o matter_n of_o boast_v be_v it_o if_o a_o man_n can_v answer_v such_o a_o letter_n as_o you_o as_o fast_o as_o he_o can_v write_v or_o if_o he_o see_v present_o what_o be_v fit_a to_o be_v say_v where_o there_o be_v nothing_o to_o surprise_v but_o the_o confidence_n of_o a_o adversary_n and_o the_o little_a reason_n he_o have_v for_o it_o as_o for_o you_o who_o have_v only_o spare_v minute_n which_o be_v not_o many_o to_o employ_v this_o way_n the_o rest_n be_v spend_v in_o a_o near_a service_n to_o your_o master_n if_o you_o mean_v in_o say_v your_o prayer_n and_o the_o like_a i_o be_o sorry_a to_o see_v no_o better_a effect_n of_o spend_v the_o most_o of_o your_o time_n so_o well_o then_o to_o spend_v the_o rest_n of_o it_o so_o ill_a as_o you_o do_v i_o be_o afraid_a your_o next_o letter_n to_o i_o will_v bring_v as_o bad_a a_o account_n of_o your_o spare_a minute_n as_o this_o have_v do_v and_o to_o be_v free_a with_o you_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o my_o fear_n at_o the_o close_a of_o your_o new_a form_a argument_n upon_o that_o retractation_n of_o you_o speak_v of_o before_o you_o talk_v as_o if_o it_o can_v be_v make_v out_o by_o the_o very_a nature_n of_o tradition_n that_o it_o be_v moral_o impossible_a for_o such_o successive_a innovation_n to_o be_v make_v as_o the_o defender_n and_o discourser_n have_v imagine_v nay_o you_o say_v that_o the_o defender_n can_v not_o but_o foresee_v the_o many_o woeful_a contradiction_n which_o necessary_o follow_v such_o a_o pretend_a change_n as_o chemnitius_n invent_v and_o i_o have_v espouse_v after_o he_o now_o sir_n this_o new_a notion_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o tradition_n and_o the_o indefectibility_n of_o it_o be_v here_o bring_v in_o without_o any_o thing_n pass_v on_o my_o side_n to_o make_v it_o pertinent_a i_o fear_v that_o all_o the_o pertinence_n it_o have_v be_v with_o reference_n to_o what_o yourself_o intend_v to_o say_v in_o answer_n to_o the_o second_o part_n of_o my_o discourse_n that_o be_v whereas_o you_o have_v promise_v i_o to_o show_v how_o little_o i_o have_v bring_v against_o the_o uninterrupted_a practice_n of_o the_o church_n ever_o since_o the_o apostle_n time_n which_o be_v to_o be_v the_o subject_a of_o a_o second_o letter_n from_o yond_o you_o will_v now_o accost_v i_o with_o the_o nature_n of_o tradition_n and_o notwithstanding_o that_o i_o have_v from_o reasonable_a good_a testimony_n make_v it_o undeniable_o evident_a if_o those_o testimony_n be_v credible_a and_o if_o i_o have_v not_o misrepresent_v they_o that_o extreme_a unction_n be_v a_o innovation_n and_o a_o late_a one_o too_o and_o though_o i_o have_v give_v a_o very_a fair_a and_o probable_a account_n how_o that_o innovation_n creep_v into_o the_o west_n yet_o all_o this_o be_v to_o go_v for_o nothing_o because_o you_o can_v demonstrate_v that_o it_o be_v impossible_a this_o shall_v ever_o happen_v or_o any_o thing_n like_o it_o but_o sir_n i_o do_v not_o forewarn_v you_o of_o this_o because_o i_o be_o afraid_a of_o the_o strength_n of_o your_o demonstration_n for_o say_v what_o you_o please_v it_o be_v a_o hundred_o to_o one_o burr_n god_n willing_a i_o shall_v either_o tell_v you_o that_o i_o be_o convince_v or_o show_v you_o reason_n for_o the_o contrary_a but_o i_o only_o foretell_v that_o you_o will_v never_o
