1. From the Signification of Drowning, (they are the Words of* Vossius, in Thes. Theol.) it is put for Affliction, because they that are afflicted are as it were drowned in the Gulf of Calamities, Mat. 20.22. Mark 10.38. Luke 12.50. Baptismus non significat Afflictionem quamlibet, sed vehementem, & forinsecus irruentem, ut sunt in Scripturis undae persecutionum & tribulationum, quibus qui merguntur & abruuntur, baptizari videantur. Estius ad 1 Cor. 15.2•. That is, Baptism denotes not every light Affliction, but that which is vehement and overwhelming: As there are Waves of Persecutions and Tribulations mentioned in Scripture; so such as are drowned and overwhelmed by them, may seem to be baptized, Mat. 20.22, 23.

Psal. 69.1, 2, &c.
