shall_v be_v grant_v mr._n malleus_fw-la that_o the_o real_a and_o metaphorical_a baptism_n be_v in_o all_o respect_v analogous_n than_o it_o must_v follow_v according_a to_o his_o own_o judgement_n that_o as_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v pour_v out_o upon_o the_o party_n baptise_a at_o pentecost_n in_o so_o plentiful_a a_o manner_n so_o as_o the_o symbol_n of_o the_o divine_a presence_n viz._n the_o mighty_a rush_a wind_n entire_o surround_v they_o and_o touch_v they_o in_o all_o part_n and_o on_o every_o side_n so_o the_o party_n be_v to_o be_v baptise_a with_o water_n aught_o to_o have_v

and_o contiguous_a to_o every_o part_n of_o their_o body_n it_o can_v be_v deny_v i_o say_v if_o he_o will_v have_v the_o manner_n of_o baptism_n by_o water_n to_o be_v specify_v and_o determine_v by_o the_o baptism_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o that_o the_o water_n must_v be_v pour_v on_o the_o party_n baptise_a with_o a_o kind_n of_o inundation_n so_o as_o the_o water_n may_v stay_v and_o
