As many of the as are baptised in Christ, have put upon ⟨image 241⟩you Christ. Fourthly by baptism we die with Christ, and are buried (as it were) in his blood & death, that we should suffer afflictions and death, as Christ himself hath suffered. And as that man, which is baptised, doth promise to God, that he will dye with Christ, that he may be dead to sin and to the old Adam, so on the other part God doth promise again to him, that he shall be partaker of christs death and passion.

And as that man, whiche is baptised, doth promise to God, that he wyll dye with Christ, that he maye be deade to synne and to the old Adam, so on the other part God doth promise againe to him, that he shalbe partaker of christes death and passion.
