as_o well_o as_o scripture_n agree_v in_o this_o case_n with_o he_o how_o absurd_a and_o ridiculous_a a_o thing_n be_v the_o invention_n of_o infant-baptism_n since_o all_o man_n know_v they_o be_v

for_o there_o be_v a_o contract_n make_v between_o both_o party_n before_o the_o solemnisation_n of_o marriage_n and_o how_o can_v a_o babe_n of_o two_o or_o ten_o day_n old_a do_v that_o it_o be_v
