Certainly God showeth his Omnipotent Power, as well in the Sacrament of Baptism, as in the Sacrament of Thanksgiving. Here of I have said somewhat, as occasion was offered, in my Former Reply to M. Harding. Leo saithe thus, 1Christus originem, quam sumpsit in Utero Virginis, posuit in Font Baptismatis. Dedit Aquae, quod dedit Matri: Christ laid in the Font of Baptism the same beginning, that he took in the Virgins Womb. He gave the same preeminence to the Water, that he gave to his Mother. Even so Chrysostome, Angeli qui adfuerunt (in Baptismo) tam inenarrabilis operis modum minime possunt enarrare. Adfuerunt tantùm, & viderunt: nihil tamen operati sunt: Sed Pater tantùm, & Filius, & Spiritus Sanctus. The Angels, that were present at the Baptism, are not h•ble to utter the manner of that unspeakable Work. They were Present only, ⟨p. 246⟩and saw: but they did nothing: but only the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.
Certainely God sheweth his Omnipotente Povver, as wel in the Sacramente of Baptisme, as in the Sacramente of Thankesgeuinge. Here of I haue saide sommewhat, as occasion was offered, in my Former Replie to M. Harding. Leo saithe thus, 1Christus originem, quam sumpsit in Vtero Virginis, posuit in Fonte Baptismatis. Dedit Aquae, quod dedit Matri: Christe laide in the Fonte of Baptisme the same beginninge, that he tooke in the Virgins Wombe. He gaue the same preeminence to the VVater, that he gaue to his Mother. Euen so Chrysostome, Angeli qui adfuerunt (in Baptismo) tam inenarrabilis operis modum minime possunt enarrare. Adfuerunt tantùm, & viderunt: nihil tamen operati sunt: Sed Pater tantùm, & Filius, & Spiritus Sanctus. The Angels, that were presente at the Baptisme, are not h•ble to vtter the manner of that vnspeakeable VVoorke. They were Presente onely, ⟨p. 246⟩and sawe: but they did nothinge: but onely the Father, the Sonne, and the Holy Ghoste.
