An Analysis of Guy de Brès’ Le baston (1559–1565), Chapter 10: Baptism
The chapter on baptism that Guy de Brès added to the fourth edition of Le baston de la foy chrestienne in 1559 is a good illustration of how the work was evolving from a polemical anthology of patristic and biblical quotations to more of a dogmatic compendium.
