You and Mr. Burkitt say, that in Mark 16. 16. the Adult only, are intended, we say so too, whether then shall we go for your Infant Baptism, we can prove from many Texts, that Infants ought to Eat though they cannot Work; but how will you prove that Infants ought to be Baptized by any other Scripture, if it be not in the Commission, tho' they do not believe, or have actual Faith. Mr. Burki• saith, Children have Mortal Bodies, therefore they must be Fed at their Parents Table, and they have Immortal Souls, and from •hence he argues they ought to be Baptized, to which I answered: As Infants have mortal Bodies, and must therefore be Fed at their Parents Table, tho' they can't Work, so because they have Immortal Souls (he might as well have said) they ought to be Fed at the ⟨p. 231⟩Lord's Table tho' they cannot believe, nor discern the Lord's Body. The Apostle saith, Let a Man examine himself, and so let him eat, &c. but this say I, is spoken of the Adult; but Infants, who are capable to receive Spiritual Benefits by Christ's Death, must have the Ordinance that figureth it out, namely the Lords Supper. There is the same ground and reason therefore to conclude Infants are included, in 1 Cor. 11. 22, 23. about receiving the Lord's Supper, as there is to conclude, that they are included, in Matth. 21. 19. Mark 16. 15, 16. In the Commission to Baptize, the one saith, Let a Man examine himself, the other saith, He that Believeth, &c.

You say you have proved, That the Apostles Baptized not only the Adult, when they believed, but the Children of such also.
