Dr. Ames speaks something for me.1 Qui aliquo modo in professione sua ad Ecclesiam pertinent, sed foedus tamen Des apert• violant, corum Infantes cum aliquo discrimine debent Baptizari: it a scilicèt ut quod foedus requirit, & in ipfis deest, per aliquos quantum fieri potest suppleatur. 1. Nam distinctio aliqua inter puros & impuros debet in sacris omnibus observari, ad bonorum consolationem; correctionem malorum, & omnium adificationem. 2. Instituta Dei non possunt aliter ab omni pollutione couservari. The Doctor I suppose would have Sureties joined, but if these Sureties cannot be proved to be an appointment of God, then he is yet stronger for me.
