much_o as_o the_o condition_n of_o time_n at_o the_o least_o be_v alter_v in_o this_o that_o now_o none_o that_o be_v of_o the_o year_n of_o discretion_n be_v baptize_v and_o the_o inconvenience_n of_o those_o same_o old_a canon_n be_v evident_a enough_o that_o those_o same_o church_n do_v very_o well_o which_o so_o take_v order_n for_o the_o use_n of_o baptism_n that_o neither_o infant_n as_o much_o as_o may_v be_v be_v deprive_v of_o baptism_n not_o that_o their_o superstition_n be_v nourish_v which_o tie_n salvation_n unto_o baptism_n neither_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o baptism_n be_v separate_v from_o the_o daily_o preach_v of_o the_o word_n 151._o question_n but_o do_v thou_o think_v that_o nothing_o ought_v to_o be_v determine_v concern_v the_o place_n answer_n yea_o see_v all_o thing_n must_v be_v do_v in_o the_o church_n comely_a and_o in_o order_n and_o forasmuch_o as_o baptism_n be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n i_o think_v that_o one_o and_o the_o fame_n place_n be_v too_o be_v use_v both_o for_o the_o word_n and_o sacrament_n so_o as_o baptism_n be_v minister_v in_o the_o public_a congregation_n of_o the_o church_n and_o with_o common_a prayer_n neither_o will_v i_o rash_o admit_v those_o i_o can_v tell_v what_o case_n of_o necessity_n that_o some_o allege_v to_o the_o contrary_n question_n but_o what_o do_v thou_o think_v concern_v the_o rite_n themselves_o answer_n i_o think_v that_o we_o ought_v to_o stand_v too_o the_o word_n of_o god_n question_n but_o it_o seem_v that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n require_v a_o through_o dip_v into_o the_o water_n answer_n i_o grant_v that_o the_o name_n itself_o of_o baptism_n be_v take_v in_o the_o precise_a and_o straight_a signification_n do_v declare_v no_o less_o neither_o be_v it_o any_o marvel_n that_o this_o be_v observe_v in_o those_o of_o the_o year_n of_o discretion_n especial_o in_o jewrie_n and_o those_o same_o hot_a country_n in_o which_o it_o may_v be_v do_v without_o any_o danger_n of_o health_n but_o i_o think_v that_o we_o must_v look_v unto_o the_o very_a end_n of_o baptism_n itself_o which_o it_o be_v plain_a also_o that_o we_o keep_v in_o the_o simple_a sprinkle_n of_o water_n upon_o the_o infant_n wet_v therewith_o like_a as_o sprinkle_n be_v sufficient_a in_o those_o same_o purification_n of_o the_o law_n in_o which_o also_o our_o baptism_n be_v shadow_v neither_o ought_v we_o great_o to_o strive_v whether_o with_o little_a or_o much_o water_n the_o whole_a body_n be_v dip_v in_o or_o the_o head_n only_o sprinkle_v question_n what_o think_v thou_o of_o that_o same_o threefold_a dip_v answer_n it_o appear_v out_o of_o tertullian_n that_o this_o be_v then_o receive_v against_o the_o unity_n of_o person_n but_o howesoever_o it_o be_v why_o may_v we_o not_o aswell_o use_v one_o dip_v alone_o that_o it_o may_v be_v signify_v that_o we_o indeed_o be_v baptize_v into_o three_o person_n as_o by_o the_o word_n of_o baptism_n itself_o be_v understand_v but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o into_o one_o god_n for_o it_o be_v as_o dangerous_a to_o multiply_v the_o essence_n as_o to_o appoint_v one_o only_a person_n but_o general_o i_o think_v we_o ought_v not_o to_o stryve_v either_o of_o one_o or_o of_o threefold_a dip_a or_o sprinkle_v which_o also_o seem_v unto_o gregory_n bishop_n of_o rome_n in_o his_o first_o book_n epistle_n 41._o 26._o 153._o question_n but_o here_o again_o there_o be_v another_o thing_n that_o i_o will_v learn_v of_o thou_o whether_o thou_o think_v that_o this_o form_n i_o baptise_v thou_o in_o the_o name_n or_o into_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n the_o son_n &_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v precise_o and_o in_o so_o many_o word_n and_o syllable_n necessary_o to_o be_v use_v for_o thou_o be_v not_o ignorant_a that_o the_o grecian_n say_v let_v the_o servant_n of_o christ_n be_v baptize_v into_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n answer_n i_o say_v here_o omit_v the_o quiddity_n and_o subtlety_n of_o the_o schoolman_n that_o two_o extremes_n be_v diligent_o to_o be_v shun_v of_o we_o to_o wit_n that_o we_o neither_o fall_n into_o the_o impiety_n of_o magician_n who_o fain_a a_o certain_a virtue_n in_o some_o certain_a word_n forasmuch_o as_o we_o have_v say_v before_o as_o word_n in_o themselves_o have_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o force_n of_o signification_n neither_o let_v we_o think_v likewise_o that_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o we_o in_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o lord_n so_o as_o it_o be_v prescribe_v of_o he_o in_o certain_a word_n to_o change_v any_o thing_n at_o all_o and_o now_o in_o very_a deed_n concern_v that_o first_o point_n if_o there_o have_v be_v any_o power_n and_o virtue_n in_o the_o letter_n &_o sound_n of_o the_o syllable_n themselves_o the_o apostle_n must_v always_o have_v use_v the_o syriach_n tongue_n forasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n speak_v in_o the_o same_o tongue_n therefore_o he_o change_v nothing_o in_o the_o matter_n itself_o which_o speak_v the_o same_o thing_n which_o christ_n himself_o have_v institute_v in_o that_o language_n that_o they_o use_v that_o be_v to_o be_v baptize_v yea_o he_o that_o do_v otherwise_o as_o at_o this_o day_n be_v do_v in_o that_o counterfeit_a church_n of_o rome_n he_o do_v evil_a because_o the_o lord_n will_v that_o those_o thing_n be_v speak_v with_o understanding_n to_o he_o which_o he_o will_v have_v to_o be_v believe_v and_o do_v of_o all_o 154._o question_n i_o beseech_v thou_o therefore_o if_o the_o baptizer_n use_v a_o strange_a tongue_n not_o understand_v of_o any_o whether_o be_v the_o baptism_n ratify_v or_o no_o answer_n the_o efficacy_n or_o virtue_n of_o baptism_n do_v not_o depend_v of_o the_o baptizer_n so_o that_o he_o as_o i_o have_v say_v want_v not_o a_o vocation_n although_o it_o be_v faulty_a and_o see_v that_o infant_n have_v as_o much_o intelligence_n if_o thou_o speak_v in_o a_o strange_a tongue_n as_o if_o thou_o shall_v speak_v in_o thy_o own_o language_n of_o the_o fruit_n of_o baptism_n which_o belong_v unto_o they_o which_o afterwards_o be_v come_v to_o their_o grow_v do_v depend_v upon_o preach_v and_o faith_n which_o do_v succeed_v in_o their_o tyme._n but_o the_o call_n upon_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o other_o can_v not_o be_v in_o vain_a although_o it_o be_v wonderful_o defile_v by_o their_o fault_n who_o preach_v the_o word_n or_o administer_a the_o sacrament_n in_o the_o church_n use_v a_o strange_a tongue_n 155._o question_n be_v the_o minister_n therefore_o precise_o bind_v to_o use_v the_o form_n command_v by_o christ_n the_o word_n only_o alter_v by_o the_o sound_n of_o a_o other_o tongue_n answer_n sure_o there_o can_v fall_v out_o no_o just_a cause_n that_o may_v excuse_v any_o change_n in_o so_o few_o word_n wherein_o that_o same_o whole_a &_o perfect_a mystery_n of_o the_o divinity_n be_v declare_v question_n what_o therefore_o if_o any_o man_n shall_v say_v indeed_o of_o the_o father_n begetter_n for_o the_o son_n beget_v for_o the_o holy_a ghost_n proceed_v what_o if_o in_o steed_n of_o three_o distinct_a person_n he_o shall_v call_v upon_o the_o trinity_n answer_n to_o what_o purpose_n i_o pray_v thou_o be_v these_o thing_n the_o lord_n have_v command_v in_o this_o mystery_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o call_v upon_o the_o personal_a propriety_n but_o upon_o the_o person_n themselves_o and_o that_o upon_o they_o distinct_o i_o will_v therefore_o never_o admit_v any_o affectate_v or_o devize_v form_n in_o steed_n of_o that_o which_o be_v lawful_a question_n much_o less_o then_o will_v thou_o admit_v the_o take_v out_o of_o any_o person_n or_o any_o heretical_a addition_n as_o if_o any_o man_n shall_v say_v the_o father_n great_a the_o son_n lesser_a or_o the_o holy_a ghost_n only_o proceed_v from_o the_o father_n answer_n thou_o think_v right_o for_o neither_o be_v this_o the_o baptism_n of_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n 156._o question_n but_o what_o think_v thou_o of_o these_o same_o speech_n i_o baptise_v thou_o or_o by_o the_o servant_n of_o christ_n be_v baptise_a answer_n christ_n have_v not_o prescribe_v unto_o his_o minister_n what_o or_o how_o many_o word_n they_o shall_v use_v in_o the_o function_n of_o his_o ministry_n but_o he_o have_v define_v the_o act_n itself_o when_o he_o command_v they_o to_o baptise_v into_o the_o name_n of_o the_o father_n of_o the_o son_n and_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n therefore_o they_o neither_o add_v nor_o diminish_v from_o the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o satisfy_v their_o office_n when_o they_o expound_v the_o institution_n of_o our_o lord_n itself_o unto_o the_o bearer_n and_o when_o they_o be_v come_v unto_o the_o actual_a form_n itself_o as_o i_o may_v say_v of_o the_o administration_n whether_o they_o

do_v offer_v their_o child_n to_o the_o priest_n to_o be_v baptize_v of_o they_o answer_n no_o not_o so_o question_n and_o yet_o thou_o say_v that_o that_o be_v a_o true_a baptism_n answer_n and_o

itself_o shall_v not_o bear_v the_o blame_n and_o we_o have_v say_v often_o time_n already_o that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o want_n of_o baptism_n but_o the_o contempt_n of_o it_o in_o itself_o that_o

149._o question_n but_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o many_o put_v off_o baptism_n long_o so_o that_o even_o gregory_n nazianzen_n the_o son_n of_o a_o bishop_n himself_o come_v not_o to_o be_v baptize_v
