Wherefore they are greatly to be blamed, and chiefly women, which take in hand to baptise children. For the baptism which they take in hand to administer, hath none other foundation but only upon the ignorance that is in them, of the true use of Baptism, and upon the superstition wherein they ⟨p. 38⟩have ben nourished. For according to the doctrine of the Papists, men have thought that the salvation of little children hath ben tied and knit to the outward and visible Baptism, and not to the invisible & inward baptism of the holy ghost, which inward baptism is the true substance of the true baptism, whereof the outward sign is a figure and representation.

WHerfore they are greatly to be blamed, and chiefly women, whiche take in hande to baptise children. For the baptism whiche they take in hande to administer, hathe none other foundation but onely vppon the ignorance that is in them, of the true vse of Baptisme, and vppon the superstition wherein they ⟨p. 38⟩haue ben nourished. For according to the doctrine of the Papistes, men haue thoughte that the saluation of little children hath ben tied and knit to the outward and visible Baptisme, and not to the inuisible & inward baptisme of the holy ghost, whiche inward baptisme is the true substance of the true baptisme, wherof the outward signe is a figure and representation.
