Dr. Taylor saith in his Dissuasive against Popery, p. 118. printed 1667, one of his last pieces, Thus, viz. That there is a Tradition to baptize Infants, relies but upon two Witnesses, Origen and Austin, and the latter having it from the former, it lies upon a single Testimony, which (saith he) is a pitiful argument to prove a Tradition Apostolical. He is the first that spoke of it; but Tertullian, that was before him, seems to speak against it, which he would not have done, if it had been an Apostolical Tradition; and that it was not so, is but too certain, if there be any Truth in the Words of Ludovicus Vives, who says, that anciently none were baptized, but Persons of ripe Age.
