" * But whensoever it was that he lost the liberty in question, at least there remains that capability which is inseparable from nature. This power he has from the resources... of. nature, whilst the will comes to him through the freedom of his voli- tion. [Then if this be so,] why does he require the sacra- ment of baptism ? Is it because of past sins, ^'n order that they may be forgiven, since they cannot be undone ? Well, suppose you acquit and release a man on these terms, he must stiU utter the old cry ; for he not only wants to be mercifully let off from punishment for past offences, but to be strengthened and fortified against sinning for the time to ■ coma For he " delights in the law of God, after the inward man ; but then he sees another law.
