A77739	A confutation of the Anabaptists, and all others who affect not civill government; proving the lawfullnesse of it: and a full answer to all their cavills, that are, or can be made against it. With a nut-cracker for an unnaturall nut, whose shell is as hard as the scales of Leviathan, and the kernell of his heart as hard as a piece of the nether mill-stone, Iob 41.15.24. yet the hammer of Gods word that breaketh in pieces the rocks, Ier. 23.29. will break this nut, that all may see the devillish kernell that is in it. Also arguments against the Anabaptists, proving that infants borne of Christian parents ought to be baptized: with a full answer to all their cavills that are (or can be) made against it.

the_o way_n to_o sedition_n and_o to_o civil_a war_n and_o mutiny_n in_o a_o commonwealth_n and_o monarchiall_a will_v be_v a_o very_a heavy_a burden_n for_o a_o free_a nation_n to_o bear_v when_o
