and_o by_o sin_n defile_v his_o holy_a spirit_n he_o desire_v god_n to_o wash_v he_o and_o to_o renew_v a_o right_a spirit_n within_o he_o psa._n 51._o 2_o 7_o 10_o 11._o yet_o david_n then_o have_v the_o holy_a spirit_n though_o in_o a_o weak_a measure_n because_o of_o his_o sin_n therefore_o he_o desire_v god_n not_o to_o take_v his_o holy_a spirit_n from_o he_o but_o to_o wash_v he_o and_o renew_v the_o holy_a spirit_n he_o have_v by_o give_v he_o a_o great_a measure_n of_o the_o same_o spirit_n so_o in_o like_o manner_n they_o now_o that_o be_v rebaptise_v shall_v not_o despise_v the_o holy_a spirit_n which_o they_o receive_v in_o their_o infant-baptism_n but_o with_o david_n desire_v god_n to_o renew_v that_o holy_a spirit_n within_o they_o by_o give_v they_o a_o great_a measure_n of_o the_o same_o spirit_n again_o from_o these_o text_n heb._n 10._o 22._o 1_o pet._n 3._o 21._o we_o must_v needs_o understand_v the_o rebaptise_v for_o how_o can_v infant_n be_v say_v to_o come_v

from_o hence_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o those_o who_o be_v to_o be_v save_v notwithstanding_o their_o baptism_n in_o their_o infancy_n ought_v to_o be_v baptise_v again_o as_o for_o they_o that_o
