A91797	Some briefe considerations on Doctor Featley his book, intituled, The dipper dipt, wherein in some measure is discovered his many great and false accusations of divers persons, commonly called Anabaptists, with an answer to them, and some brief reasons of their practice. In seven sections, viz. I. Dr. Featley his secret and haynous accusing the honourable Parliament. II. That he is guilty of greater errors, than to go into the water to be dipt. ... VI. Some reasons alledged against infants being baptized. A question proposed to consideration, that if it be an error to be baptized again, whether the punishment, some would have inflicted upon them, and some have suffered, be not too great? VII. How many sorts of Anabaptists he saith there are, and what they hold. Whereunto is added, what is conceived the Doctors mysticall frontispiece may more properly declare. / By Samuel Richardson.	Richardson, Samuel, fl. 1643-1658.	1645 (1645)	Wing R1414; Thomason E270_22; ESTC R212288	20,332	22

of_o our_o translator_n they_o do_v it_o upon_o oath_n but_o truth_n must_v not_o be_v take_v by_o tradition_n and_o if_o the_o knowledge_n of_o hebrew_n greek_a etc._n etc._n be_v sufficient_a to_o
