Wood. What abominable lies have you told? Be you not ashamed to speak such words as you have done? First you say, I christened mine own child, and by and by you said, I denied baptising of children, and that my child was a fortnight or three weeks old ere it was baptised. What abominable lies be these? I neither baptised my child my self, neither held against the baptising of it, but did most gladly allow it: for it was baptised as soon as it was borne, and I was glad thereof: therefore you be to blame to report so of me.
