Thus if you stop not the press, four men will swear sodomy against you. Humbly offered to the consideration of learned, pious Anabaptists; who confess I have given their cause of plunging a dreadful blow. With friendly address to Mr. Philosensus, whose mistake in thus joyning this Greek and Latin word together, helps me to a thought against plunging. That it not only tends to, but actually doth deprive some men, but especially women, (on their own confession) of their senses when baptized, (as they call it) and therefore is not, cannot be an ordinance of Christ, but a human, or rather diabolical invention.

The Duckers Duck'd and Duck'd and Duck'd again Head and Ears and all over for Plunging Scolding and Defaming WHen my last Sheet against Plunging in Baptism was put in my Hand to be Corrected in order to its true Impression came a Bapt. vulgarly Anabaptist to me with these Words in his Mouth If you stop not the Press you are undone and will repent it Four will Swear Sodomy on you To whom I replyed I will hasten my Work the sooner and challenge any of my Accusars to face me c. Now Reader They that would conceal Sodomy to serve their Cause no wonder if they do a Brother or Sisters Whoredomes or their own But why was not this Sodomy charged on me before I wrote my Epistle to Mr. Keith against Plunging I was intimate with them long before Not a Word said to me of any such thing So some dealt with Dr. Oats when he discovered the Popish Plot c.
