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 conâ—eyors_n hereof_o yet_o only_o adam_n be_v the_o
