Dearly beloved, ye have brought _this Child_ here to be baptized; ye have prayed that our Lord Jesus Christ would vouchsafe to receive _him_, to release _him_ of _his_ sins, to sanctify _him_ with the Holy Ghost, to give _him_ the kingdom of heaven and everlasting life. Ye have heard also that our Lord Jesus Christ hath promised in his Gospel, to grant all these things that ye have prayed for: which promise he, for his part, will most surely keep and perform. Wherefore, after this promise made by Christ, _this Infant_ must also faithfully, for _his_ part, promise by you that are _his_ sureties, (until _he_ come of age to take it upon _himself_,) that _he_ will renounce the devil and all his works, and constantly believe God's holy Word, and obediently keep his commandments. I demand therefore, Dost thou, in the name of this Child, renounce the devil and all his works, the vain pomp and glory of the world, with all covetous desires of the same, and the carnal desires of the flesh, so that thou wilt not follow nor be led by them? _Answer_. I renounce them all. _Minister_. Dost thou believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth? And in Jesus Christ his only-begotten Son our Lord? And that he was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary; that he suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; that he went down into hell, and also did rise again the third day; that he ascended into heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; and from thence shall come again at the end of the world, to judge the quick and the dead? And dost thou believe in the Holy Ghost; the holy Catholic Church; the Communion of Saints; the Remission of sins; the Resurrection of the flesh; and everlasting life after death? _Answer_. All this I stedfastly believe. _Minister_. Wilt thou be baptized in this faith? _Answer_. That is my desire. _Minister_. Wilt thou then obediently keep God's holy will and commandments, and walk in the same all the days of thy life? _Answer_. I will. _Then shall the Priest say_, O merciful God, grant that the old Adam in _this Child_ may be so buried, that the new man may be raised up in _him_. _Amen_. Grant that all carnal affections may die in _him_, and that all things belonging to the Spirit may live and grow in _him_. _Amen_. Grant that _he_ may have power and strength, to have victory, and to triumph against the devil, the world, and the flesh. _Amen_. Grant that whosoever is here dedicated to thee by our office and ministry may also be endued with heavenly virtues, and everlastingly rewarded, through thy mercy, O blessed Lord God, who dost live, and govern all things, world without end. _Amen_.
