Gregory Nazianzen in his Fourth Oration, saith Dr. Du-Veil,
Of those who dye without Baptism, gives us an Instance in those to whom Baptism was not administered by reason of Infancy. And the same Nazianzen, though he was a Bishops Son, being a long time bred up under his Fathers care, was not, saith the said Dr, baptized till he came to Man's Age. In like manner (saith he) Basil the Great that was born of devout Parents, and instructed from his Childhood, was not baptized until a Man, p. 280. Also, saith he, John of Antioch, called afterwards Chrysostom, was born of Christian Parents, as the truer Opinion is, tutored by the famous Bishop Miletius, was not yet baptized, till he was One and Twenty Years of Age. Hierom, also Ambrose and Austin, who were born of Christian Parents, and consecrated to Christian Discipline, even from their Childhood, were not baptized before thirty years of age, as Dr. Taylor Bishop of Down asserts in his Twelfth Section of the Life of Christ.
