the_o sign_n of_o this_o sacrament_n be_v water_n which_o signify_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v the_o force_n of_o his_o death_n because_o it_o have_v that_o effectual_a work_n in_o

of_o the_o heavenly_a father_n who_o for_o this_o purpose_n do_v be_v the_o power_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n communicate_v unto_o thou_o christ_n jesus_n his_o son_n with_o all_o his_o benefit_n and_o do_v unite_v thou_o unto_o he_o so_o as_o thou_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o he_o see_v therefore_o christ_n command_v that_o these_o thing_n shall_v be_v preach_v it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v

that_o indeed_o be_v first_o do_v away_o not_o that_o it_o do_v not_o remain_v in_o we_o but_o because_o it_o be_v not_o impute_v the_o same_o also_o we_o may_v affirm_v of_o other_o sin_n that_o be_v

therefore_o deliver_v of_o the_o minister_n in_o baptism_n by_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n namely_o i_o baptise_v thou_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n son_n &_o holy_a ghost_n shall_v
