when_o they_o depart_v this_o world_n what_o be_v then_o to_o be_v do_v that_o we_o may_v come_v into_o the_o path_n of_o salvation_n we_o must_v seek_v the_o truth_n and_o where_o shall_v we_o find_v

it_o appear_v by_o the_o canon_n that_o the_o salvation_n of_o man_n do_v do_v not_o depend_v whole_o upon_o baptism_n but_o principal_o upon_o faith_n these_o be_v the_o very_a word_n of_o the_o canon_n 4._o s._n cyprian_n to_o prove_v that_o the_o torment_n of_o death_n may_v stand_v in_o stead_n of_o baptism_n have_v ground_v his_o argument_n upon_o these_o word_n of_o christ_n speak_v to_o the_o unbaptised_a thief_n this_o day_n shall_v thou_o be_v with_o i_o in_o paradise_n in_o the_o examine_n whereof_o more_o narrow_o i_o find_v that_o not_o only_o the_o suffering_n of_o death_n for_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n but_o also_o the_o hearty_a beleve_v in_o he_o and_o the_o confess_v of_o he_o may_v supply_v the_o want_n of_o baptism_n when_o the_o party_n be_v so_o distress_a by_o some_o extremity_n of_o time_n as_o he_o can_v have_v the_o sacrament_n of_o batisme_n minister_v unto_o he_o and_o there_o follow_v a_o other_o canon_n which_o say_v that_o if_o a_o learner_n of_o the_o catechism_n that_o be_v to_o say_v such_o a_o one_o as_o be_v but_o new_o enter_v into_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o faith_n and_o be_v not_o yet_o baptize_v do_v suffer_v martyrdom_n for_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n he_o fail_v not_o to_o be_v save_v although_o he_o want_v baptism_n and_o the_o reason_n hereof_o as_o say_v the_o same_o canon_n be_v because_o that_o in_o this_o case_n such_o as_o have_v not_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n have_v not_o want_v it_o through_o pride_n or_o disdain_n but_o through_o enforcement_n of_o necessity_n in_o likewise_o it_o be_v forbid_v by_o the_o canon_n that_o woman_n 4._o how_o wise_a so_o ever_o they_o be_v shall_v either_o preach_v or_o baptise_v it_o be_v true_a that_o hereunto_o they_o do_v join_v this_o one_o exception_n which_o be_v if_o it_o be_v not_o in_o case_n of_o necessity_n but_o if_o it_o be_v grant_v according_a to_o the_o truth_n that_o the_o infant_n which_o die_v unbaptized_a be_v not_o therefore_o exclude_v from_o salvation_n it_o follow_v well_o that_o no_o necessity_n can_v be_v great_a enough_o to_o dispense_v with_o woman_n for_o intermeddle_v themselves_o with_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n and_o true_o in_o old_a time_n 4._o as_o the_o canon_n do_v witness_n baptism_n be_v not_o minister_v ordinary_o but_o only_o at_o two_o time_n in_o the_o year_n namely_o at_o easter_n and_o at_o whittesontyde_n which_o well_o bewray_v that_o they_o use_v no_o such_o haste_n as_o that_o woman_n shall_v be_v fain_o to_o meddle_v with_o the_o matter_n 4._o likewise_o it_o do_v also_o appear_v by_o the_o canon_n that_o baptism_n be_v not_o minister_v to_o the_o infidel_n but_o only_o to_o such_o as_o have_v faith_n and_o do_v make_v confession_n thereof_o when_o they_o be_v of_o age_n to_o do_v it_o and_o as_o touch_v the_o forementioned_a ceremony_n in_o deed_n there_o be_v some_o canon_n how_o be_v it_o of_o the_o worst_a stamp_n which_o do_v allow_v they_o but_o the_o best_a and_o most_o ancient_a canon_n do_v utter_o dissallow_v they_o for_o by_o the_o ancient_a canon_n man_n be_v permit_v to_o baptise_v in_o river_n in_o the_o sea_n in_o fountain_n and_o in_o every_o other_o place_n commodious_a for_o that_o purpose_n 3_o these_o be_v the_o word_n of_o a_o canon_n take_v out_o of_o the_o decree_n of_o pope_n victor_n let_v the_o gentile_n that_o be_v come_v to_o the_o faith_n be_v baptize_v in_o all_o season_n and_o all_o place_n fit_a for_o they_o be_v it_o in_o river_n sea_n or_o spring_n as_o be_v make_v clean_o by_o confession_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n and_o by_o a_o other_o canon_n it_o be_v well_o show_v that_o we_o ought_v rather_o to_o rest_v upon_o the_o baptism_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o faith_n than_o upon_o the_o baptism_n of_o water_n 4._o for_o it_o say_v thus_o the_o true_a baptism_n do_v not_o consist_v so_o much_o in_o the_o wash_n of_o the_o body_n as_o in_o the_o belief_n of_o the_o heart_n as_o the_o apostolic_a doctrine_n do_v teach_v we_o say_v they_o make_v clean_o their_o heart_n through_o faith_n and_o in_o a_o other_o canon_n go_v before_o it_o be_v say_v that_o a_o catholic_a not_o baptize_v unbaptized_a for_o it_o presuppose_v that_o one_o may_v be_v a_o catholic_a without_o be_v baptize_v which_o have_v a_o ardent_a zeal_n of_o divine_a charity_n be_v to_o be_v prefer_v before_o a_o wicked_a man_n that_o be_v baptize_v as_o for_o example_n say_v the_o canon_n cornelius_n the_o centener_n who_o be_v fill_v with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n before_o he_o be_v baptize_v be_v to_o be_v prefer_v before_o simon_n magus_n who_o be_v possess_v with_o a_o unclean_a spirit_n after_o he_o have_v be_v baptize_v but_o if_o cornelius_n have_v receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v not_o be_v willing_a to_o be_v baptize_v he_o have_v be_v grievous_o guilty_a of_o the_o despise_n of_o so_o excellent_a a_o sacrament_n by_o which_o canon_n it_o be_v easy_a to_o judge_v that_o we_o ought_v altogether_o to_o depend_v upon_o that_o which_o the_o sacrament_n do_v signify_v unto_o we_o and_o upon_o the_o grace_n which_o god_n do_v thereby_o geve_v unto_o we_o and_o not_o to_o set_v our_o mind_n upon_o a_o sort_n of_o superstitious_a and_o vain_a ceremony_n as_o the_o romish_a catholic_n do_v in_o these_o day_n for_o they_o may_v easy_o perceive_v by_o the_o thing_n aforesaid_a that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o reform_a religion_n touch_v the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n be_v better_a more_o ancient_a &_o further_a from_o heresy_n than_o they_o be_v according_a to_o our_o three_o maxim_n here_o before_o set_v down_o to_o prove_v the_o point_n which_o be_v in_o question_n let_v we_o now_o speak_v of_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n ❧_o of_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o holy_a supper_n the_o seven_o chapter_n the_o difference_n betwixt_o the_o romish_a catholic_n and_o the_o protestant_n concern_v the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n do_v consist_v in_o three_o point_n the_o one_o in_o the_o name_n thereof_o for_o the_o catholic_n call_v that_o the_o keep_n of_o easter_n which_o the_o protestant_n do_v name_n the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o this_o diversity_n of_o speak_v import_v not_o much_o for_o both_o of_o they_o be_v still_o a_o celebrate_n of_o the_o mystery_n of_o our_o redemption_n true_a it_o be_v that_o the_o catholic_n use_v the_o manner_n of_o speak_v of_o the_o old_a testament_n according_a to_o the_o phrase_n whereof_o the_o feast_n of_o easter_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o passover_n be_v celebrate_v by_o the_o eat_n of_o a_o lamb_n which_o do_v represent_v christ_n in_o remembrance_n of_o the_o deliverance_n of_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n who_o god_n have_v bring_v out_o of_o the_o thraldom_n of_o egypt_n but_o the_o protestant_n use_v the_o manner_n of_o speak_v of_o the_o new_a testament_n whereby_o the_o holy_a institution_n which_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n ordain_v to_o celebrate_v the_o remembrance_n of_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n and_o to_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n be_v call_v the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o we_o must_v not_o strive_v about_o word_n so_o it_o be_v know_v that_o to_o keep_v the_o easter_n and_o to_o celebrate_v the_o lord_n supper_n be_v at_o this_o day_n oneself_o same_o thing_n the_o second_o difference_n which_o be_v much_o great_a consist_v in_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o sacrament_n for_o the_o catholic_n at_o leastwise_o the_o schoolman_n uphold_v that_o assoon_o as_o the_o priest_n have_v speak_v the_o word_n of_o consecration_n over_o one_o host_n or_o over_o many_o they_o change_v their_o nature_n present_o and_o be_v transubstantiate_v into_o the_o very_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o selfsame_o greatness_n &_o bigness_n that_o it_o be_v upon_o the_o cross_n so_o as_o the_o bread_n of_o the_o host_n be_v they_o no_o long_o bread_n although_o the_o colour_n and_o the_o taste_n of_o bread_n remain_v still_o therein_o their_o proof_n of_o this_o doctrine_n be_v that_o when_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n do_v institute_v his_o supper_n as_o he_o give_v the_o bread_n to_o his_o disciple_n he_o say_v unto_o they_o this_o be_v my_o body_n and_o in_o give_v they_o the_o cup_n he_o say_v unto_o they_o this_o be_v my_o blood_n they_o prove_v it_o also_o by_o a_o canon_n 2_o which_o begin_v thus_o i_o beringarius_n etc_n etc_n which_o canon_n say_v in_o express_a word_n that_o after_o the_o consecration_n the_o bread_n and_o wine_n become_v not_o only_a sacrament_n but_o also_o the_o very_a body_n and_o the_o very_a blow_fw-mi ud_fw-mi of_o christ_n and_o that_o the_o priest_n do_v sensible_o handle_v the_o same_o very_a body_n and_o break_v it_o and_o that_o the_o faithful_a in_o eat_v the_o sacrament_n with_o
