supply_v the_o default_n of_o the_o baptism_n of_o water_n and_o what_o else_o do_v we_o say_v 10._o but_o if_o we_o crave_v formal_a example_n out_o of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n every_o man_n know_v that_o to_o the_o israelite_n circumcision_n be_v the_o same_o which_o at_o this_o day_n baptism_n be_v to_o we_o and_o that_o the_o necessity_n be_v alike_o and_o yet_o infinite_a people_n be_v

a_o sermon_n be_v seemly_a but_o not_o of_o absolute_a necessity_n none_o of_o we_o do_v believe_v that_o baptism_n administer_v without_o a_o sermon_n be_v no_o baptism_n or_o that_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v reiterated_a true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o say_v that_o the_o scale_n without_o write_n be_v unprofitable_a so_o the_o sacrament_n without_o the_o word_n be_v unfruitful_a but_o by_o the_o word_n we_o understand_v the_o promise_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o form_n of_o baptism_n institute_v by_o jesus_n christ_n and_o not_o a_o sermon_n as_o this_o inquisitor_n ween_v four_o

not_o so_o only_o we_o say_v that_o we_o do_v indeed_o find_v that_o the_o heathen_a do_v use_v holy_a or_o lustral_a water_n but_o that_o we_o find_v not_o that_o ever_o the_o apostle_n use_v any_o and_o because_o we_o be_v not_o so_o light_a of_o belief_n we_o demand_v of_o our_o adversary_n whether_o the_o word_n of_o god_n do_v teach_v they_o that_o water_n consecrate_v by_o either_o word_n or_o sign_n be_v of_o any_o force_n against_o the_o devil_n for_o the_o gospel_n show_v we_o the_o mean_n whereby_o the_o apostle_n cast_v they_o out_o namely_o by_o faith_n by_o prayer_n and_o by_o
