the_o soul_n may_v be_v infect_v in_o the_o body_n or_o it_o must_v be_v understand_v of_o the_o complete_a conjunction_n of_o the_o soul_n with_o the_o flesh_n which_o be_v seminal_o derive_v from_o

be_v conjoin_v for_o than_o first_o be_v we_o perfect_a humane_a creature_n capable_a of_o sin_n and_o then_o be_v we_o first_o complete_a son_n &_o member_n of_o adam_n and_o so_o then_o be_v original_a sin_n contract_v and_o the_o soul_n seem_v as_o be_v be_v to_o be_v pollute_v in_o the_o body_n as_o in_o a_o unclean_a vessel_n not_o that_o any_o actual_a infection_n of_o sin_n be_v in_o the_o flesh_n before_o the_o soul_n be_v infuse_v which_o corruption_n shall_v straight_o redound_v out_o of_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o flesh_n into_o the_o soul_n so_o soon_o as_o ever_o it_o be_v infuse_v nor_o when_o the_o soul_n be_v create_v a_o part_n by_o itself_o in_o the_o body_n for_o in_o the_o body_n it_o be_v create_v that_o then_o almighty_a god_n create_v it_o with_o original_a sin_n cleave_v to_o it_o i_o say_v that_o neither_o of_o these_o can_v be_v for_o the_o body_n alone_o or_o soul_n alone_o be_v not_o a_o complete_a perfect_a man_n nor_o so_o capable_a of_o sin_n and_o therefore_o till_o they_o be_v join_v they_o be_v not_o adam_n posterity_n nor_o so_o infect_v with_o original_a sin_n which_o for_o better_a memory_n sake_n &_o understanding_n again_o i_o say_v be_v then_o first_o fasten_v on_o we_o so_o soon_o as_o we_o become_v perfect_a humane_a creature_n derive_v from_o adam_n and_o so_o be_v consider_v as_o part_n &_o progeny_n of_o he_o by_o who_o alone_o original_a sin_n be_v enter_v upon_o all_o mankind_n 7._o and_o so_o last_o it_o be_v answer_v to_o the_o pelagian_n assumption_n and_o inference_n vidz_n the_o soul_n be_v not_o derive_v from_o adam_n nor_o therefore_o original_a sin_n which_o be_v in_o the_o soul_n that_o original_a sin_n in_o the_o soul_n be_v not_o consider_v to_o belong_v thereunto_o whither_o we_o false_o suppose_v the_o soul_n to_o be_v traduce_v from_o adam_n or_o whither_o we_o believe_v it_o true_o to_o be_v create_v of_o god_n but_o only_o in_o respect_n that_o the_o soul_n be_v join_v to_o the_o body_n then_o make_v a_o complete_a creature_n who_o be_v a_o part_n or_o member_n of_o adam_n and_o so_o only_o capable_a &_o subject_a to_o this_o original_a sin_n also_o furthermore_o consider_v that_o to_o the_o end_n that_o sin_n shall_v be_v derive_v from_o adam_n it_o be_v not_o necessary_a that_o the_o soul_n also_o be_v derive_v from_o he_o but_o it_o be_v enough_o if_o the_o complete_a reasonable_a creature_n whereof_o the_o soul_n be_v a_o part_n be_v in_o descent_n a_o member_n of_o adam_n and_o observe_v that_o generation_n be_v not_o finish_v in_o the_o production_n of_o the_o form_n or_o soul_n alone_o nor_o of_o the_o matter_n or_o body_n alone_o but_o in_o the_o complete_a conjunction_n &_o union_n of_o both_o together_o wherefore_o he_o may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o next_o cause_n of_o generation_n who_o be_v the_o next_o cause_n of_o this_o conjunction_n but_o our_o parent_n do_v so_o dispose_v &_o affoarde_v the_o material_a part_n which_o be_v the_o seed_n or_o body_n that_o the_o soul_n which_o be_v the_o form_n must_v in_o order_n of_o nature_n necessary_o follow_v &_o come_v to_o be_v conjoin_v thereunto_o in_o which_o sense_n a_o man_n be_v say_v to_o beget_v a_o man_n and_o so_o though_o he_o be_v not_o author_n of_o the_o soul_n yet_o he_o be_v call_v father_n of_o the_o whole_a creature_n because_o he_o be_v in_o nature_n the_o next_o cause_n of_o this_o union_n &_o conjunction_n of_o the_o soul_n with_o the_o body_n thus_o therefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o we_o derive_v original_a sin_n from_o adam_n only_o as_o be_v our_o generarll_a father_n alone_o for_o though_o our_o other_o ancestor_n &_o parent_n be_v the_o instrumental_a cause_n or_o as_o conduyte_n the_o con●eyors_n hereof_o yet_o only_o adam_n be_v the_o

sin_n rather_o than_o our_o father_n whereas_o indeed_o it_o come_v more_o from_o adam_n then_o from_o either_o sect._n 3_o 1._o next_o let_v we_o consider_v why_o he_o rather_o mention_v his_o mother_n in_o this_o case_n of_o original_a sin_n and_o not_o his_o father_n especial_o see_v all_o our_o divine_n affirm_v that_o although_o eva_n have_v sin_v yet_o if_o adam_n have_v remain_v innocent_a original_a sin_n shall_v not_o have_v be_v derive_v unto_o their_o posterity_n because_o they_o say_v adam_z alone_z as_o a_o public_a person_n and_o general_a father_n of_o all_o mankind_n do_v represent_v the_o person_n of_o all_o his_o successor_n and_o for_o they_o as_o well_o as_o for_o himself_o do_v receive_v original_a justice_n by_o the_o loss_n whereof_o he_o bring_v we_o all_o as_o be_v part_n of_o he_o as_o our_o natural_a head_n into_o this_o detriment_n of_o original_a sin_n wherefore_o in_o the_o same_o respect_n also_o though_o cayn_n or_o any_o other_o sinner_n have_v first_o sin_v adam_n be_v still_o uprighte_a yet_o their_o sin_n shall_v only_o have_v deform_v themselves_o and_o not_o have_v perteyn_v to_o we_o because_o we_o be_v comprehend_v in_o none_o as_o our_o general_a father_n save_v only_o in_o adam_n 2._o further_o it_o be_v allege_v in_o favour_n of_o the_o woman_n that_o she_o concur_v but_o passive_o unto_o generation_n as_o only_o give_v the_o material_a part_n of_o conceptione_n not_o induce_v the_o active_a form_n which_o procee_v from_o the_o man_n who_o therefore_o by_o philosopher_n and_o physician_n be_v account_v the_o principal_a party_n and_o cheifer_n cause_n of_o generation_n and_o yet_o here_o about_o original_a sin_n the_o mother_n be_v name_v only_o and_o not_o the_o father_n because_o at_o the_o time_n of_o our_o quicken_a when_o first_o in_o deed_n we_o do_v contracte_v original_a sin_n than_o we_o be_v in_o her_o womb_n than_o she_o keep_v and_o nourish_v we_o and_o not_o the_o father_n and_o so_o she_o be_v say_v to_o conceive_v we_o in_o sin_n not_o mention_v the_o father_n 3._o and_o though_o eva_n can_v not_o be_v author_n of_o original_a sin_n to_o all_o her_o posterity_n as_o be_v afore_o say_v yet_o our_o next_o parent_n both_o man_n and_o woman_n be_v always_o the_o instrument_n and_o successive_a conveyor_n of_o original_a sin_n by_o descendence_n from_o adam_n i_o say_v our_o parent_n and_o ancestor_n be_v conveyor_n and_o instrument_n not_o cause_n or_o author_n '_o for_o only_a adam_n be_v so_o to_o be_v account_v and_o see_v the_o mother_n be_v the_o material_a instrument_n and_o conduyte_o which_o be_v more_o evident_a to_o our_o sense_n then_o the_o formal_a therefore_o be_v she_o also_o name_v rather_o than_o the_o father_n 4._o also_o i_o say_v that_o in_o deed_n and_o real_o we_o do_v only_o contracte_v original_a sin_n at_o the_o time_n when_o we_o be_v quicken_v and_o receive_v life_n in_o our_o mother_n womb_n for_o though_o at_o the_o instant_n of_o the_o

it_o come_v to_o be_v a_o live_a humane_a creature_n yet_o proper_o and_o true_o in_o effecto_fw-la the_o child_n be_v not_o infect_v with_o original_a sin_n until_o it_o come_v to_o have_v the_o soul_n infuse_v and_o unite_v to_o the_o body_n which_o be_v not_o till_o the_o quicken_a and_o have_v no_o soul_n it_o be_v not_o a_o perfect_v humane_a creature_n but_o only_o little_a more_o than_o a_o mass_n of_o flesh_n which_o without_o soul_n can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v real_o capable_a of_o any_o sin_n 5._o wherefore_o at_o that_o time_n be_v in_o the_o mother_n womb_n and_o also_o have_v be_v there_o nourish_v until_o that_o time_n and_o so_o maynteyn_v afterward_o until_o the_o birth_n the_o mother_n be_v rather_o name_v then_o the_o father_n and_o so_o here_o the_o hebrew_n word_n
