3. Quaere, concerning the matter of his answer: 1. whether any report of passages made by me, in that writing, be proved untrue by him? 2. Whether the Scriptures alleged by me be faithfully handled by him, or do not serve fully to the purpose, for which I produced them? and whether all of them be alleged by me against the baptism of some infants, as he pretendeth? and why he answereth not other passages, in that letter to the Classis, but only insisteth upon 2. or 3. texts of Scripture, in the pretended purpose whereof he abuseth his Reader? and what end he had in pretending to answer, in such a manner, my protestation, which was made in his favour?
