and_o majesty_n of_o god_n their_o maker_n beside_o the_o holy_a scripture_n declare_v that_o both_o infant_n and_o adult_a person_n have_v the_o same_o equality_n in_o the_o divine_a workmanship_n when_o elisha_n pray_v over_o the_o dead_a child_n of_o the_o sunamitisn_a widow_n he_o lay_v upon_o the_o child_n and_o put_v his_o head_n upon_o his_o head_n and_o his_o face_n upon_o his_o face_n

of_o a_o grow_v man_n but_o herein_o be_v express_v the_o divine_a and_o spiritual_a equality_n that_o al●_n man_n be_v equal_a and_o alike_o when_o they_o be_v make_v by_o god_n that_o though_o the_o

whereas_o you_o say_v that_o a_o infant_n for_o the_o first_o day_n after_o his_o birth_n be_v unclean_a so_o that_o every_o one_o be_v afraid_a to_o kiss_v he_o this_o can_v be_v no_o impediment_n to_o his_o obtainment_n of_o heavenly_a grace_n for_o it_o be_v write_v to_o the_o pure_a all_o thing_n be_v pure_a and_o none_o of_o we_o shall_v dread_v that_o which_o god_n have_v make_v for_o although_o a_o infant_n be_v new_o bear_v yet_o he_o be_v not_o so_o as_o that_o we_o shall_v dread_v to_o kiss_v he_o since_o in_o the_o kiss_n of_o a_o infant_n we_o ought_v to_o think_v upon_o the_o fresh_a work_n of_o god_n which_o in_o a_o manner_n we_o assembly_n kiss_v in_o a_o infant_n new_o form_v and_o bear_v when_o we_o embrace_v that_o which_o god_n have_v make_v and_o whereas_o the_o carnal_a jewish_a circumcision_n be_v perform_v on_o the_o eight_o day_n that_o be_v a_o type_n and_o shadow_n of_o some_o future_a good_a thing_n which_o christ_n the_o truth_n be_v now_o

give_v we_o the_o spiritual_a circumcision_n wherefore_o it_o be_v our_o judgement_n that_o no_o one_o ought_v to_o be_v debar_v from_o god_n grace_n by_o that_o law_n or_o that_o the_o spiritual_a circumcision_n shall_v be_v hinder_v by_o the_o carnal_a one_o but_o all_o man_n ought_v to_o be_v admit_v to_o the_o grace_n of_o christ_n as_o peter_n say_v in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n that_o the_o lord_n say_v unto_o he_o that_o he_o shall_v call_v no_o man_n common_a or_o unclean_a but_o if_o any_o thing_n can_v hinder_v man_n from_o baptism_n it_o will_v be_v heinous_a sin_n that_o will_v debar_v the_o adult_n and_o mature_a there_o from_o and_o if_o those_o who_o have_v sin_v extreme_o against_o god_n yet_o if_o afterward_o they_o believe_v be_v baptise_a and_o no_o man_n be_v prohibit_v from_o this_o grace_n how_o much_o more_o ought_v not_o a_o infant_n to_o be_v prohibit_v who_o be_v but_o just_a bear_v be_v guilty_a of_o no_o sin_n but_o of_o original_a which_o he_o contract_v from_o adam_n who_o ought_v the_o more_o ready_o to_o be_v receive_v to_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n because_o not_o his_o own_o but_o other_o sin●_n be_v remit_v to_o he_o wherefore_o dear_o belove_v it_o be_v our_o opinion_n that_o from_o baptism_n and_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n who_o be_v merciful_a kind_a and_o benign_a to_o all_o none_o ought_v to_o be_v prohibit_v by_o we_o which_o as_o it_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v and_o follow_v with_o respect_n to_o all_o so_o especial_o with_o respect_n to_o infant_n and_o those_o that_o be_v but_o just_a bear_v who_o
