three_o some_z as_o i_o say_v above_o add_v a_o four_o of_o the_o word_n because_o the_o word_n baptism_n sometime_o comprehend_v also_o the_o doctrine_n baptize_v into_o as_o in_o matth._n 21.25_o

which_o 2._o second_o i_o find_v the_o ground_n thereof_o in_o scripture_n be_v either_o 1._o more_o general_a and_o fundamental_a viz._n the_o grace_n of_o god_n towards_o poor_a lose_a man_n
