but_o to_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o as_o origen_n say_v that_o the_o apostle_n know_v that_o there_o be_v in_o all_o the_o stain_n of_o sin_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v wash_v by_o water_n and_o by_o the_o spirit_n so_o cyprian_n when_o the_o lord_n say_v in_o the_o gospel_n he_o come_v not_o to_o destroy_v the_o soul_n of_o man_n but_o to_o save_v we_o also_o shall_v prevent_v as_o much_o as_o

i_o say_v be_v no_o word_n of_o institution_n but_o some_o general_a reason_n as_o they_o conceive_v and_o do_v not_o at_o all_o hinder_a but_o that_o apostolical_a tradition_n as_o they_o call_v it_o bear_v the_o weight_n of_o the_o institution_n i_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o there_o have_v be_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o the_o tradition_n of_o christ_n and_o apostolical_a tradition_n which_o be_v of_o the_o high_a and_o great_a authority_n but_o they_o be_v such_o thing_n as_o afterward_o be_v commit_v to_o write_v by_o the_o evangelist_n and_o apostle_n as_o chemnitius_n well_o observe_v p._n

the_o papist_n &_o lutheran_n that_o judge_v baptism_n simple_o necessary_a to_o salvation_n and_o some_o of_o they_o condemn_v infant_n to_o eternal_a damnation_n without_o it_o as_o austin_n

of_o tradition_n that_o this_o peremptory_a necessity_n to_o salvation_n be_v indeed_o a_o false_a hypothesis_n or_o supposition_n not_o fit_a to_o bear_v the_o weight_n of_o infant_n baptism_n but_o that_o the_o father_n also_o may_v possible_o have_v other_o medium_n by_o which_o to_o prove_v this_o as_o those_o before_o instanced_a in_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o weakness_n of_o those_o medium_n

it_o may_v well_o be_v conceive_v that_o there_o be_v something_o of_o interest_n which_o supply_v to_o they_o the_o want_n of_o reason_n and_o this_o interest_n of_o the_o salvation_n of_o our_o
