of_o god_n grace_n but_o justice_n be_v always_o season_v with_o the_o spice_n of_o mercy_n in_o so_o much_o that_o in_o the_o pain_n of_o the_o damn_a god_n mercy_n still_o appear_v for_o he_o can_v by_o many_o degree_n increase_v their_o torture_n and_o torment_n as_o their_o sin_n and_o desert_n do_v just_o deserve_v and_o notwithstanding_o their_o pain_n yet_o still_o they_o retain_v a_o entitative_a perfection_n now_o to_o answer_v this_o doubt_n the_o father_n be_v punish_v sometime_o in_o his_o son_n the_o shame_n of_o the_o one_o redound_v to_o the_o reproach_n of_o the_o other_o as_o you_o see_v it_o practise_v in_o our_o law_n where_o for_o the_o father_n offence_n the_o whole_a stock_n be_v attaint_v sometime_o the_o son_n do_v share_v in_o the_o sin_n of_o their_o parent_n justice_n as_o furtherer_n and_o abettor_n in_o his_o crime_n be_v then_o in_o his_o loin_n and_o part_n of_o his_o substance_n thus_o it_o be_v with_o whole_a mankind_n in_o respect_n of_o adam_n who_o be_v like_o a_o politic_a body_n and_o do_v sustain_v the_o person_n of_o we_o all_o and_o therefore_o as_o we_o partake_v of_o his_o seed_n partake_v of_o his_o inheritance_n so_o it_o may_v

as_o rather_o include_v a_o privation_n of_o that_o original_a grace_n which_o god_n first_o impart_v to_o man_n than_o any_o great_a inherent_a malignity_n in_o our_o nature_n whereby_o god_n

how_o this_o sin_n shall_v be_v convey_v to_o the_o post●ritie_n of_o adam_n i_o find_v it_o a_o very_a difficult_a controversy_n much_o question_v by_o our_o divine_n and_o the_o rather_o because_o sin_n in_o itself_o be_v original_o and_o primary_o in_o the_o soul_n adam_n as_o be_v the_o fountain_n of_o all_o our_o action_n and_o therefore_o the_o only_a subject_n capable_a of_o sin_n now_o the_o divine_n together_o with_o the_o philosopher_n agree_v that_o the_o soul_n be_v immediate_o create_v of_o god_n and_o therefore_o be_v god_n own_o work_n and_o nothing_o but_o god_n it_o can_v be_v taint_v with_o sin_n suppose_v this_o for_o a_o truth_n my_o answer_n be_v that_o sin_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v tie_v to_o the_o several_a part_n to_o the_o soul_n or_o to_o the_o body_n separat_o but_o to_o the_o part_n joint_o together_o that_o be_v to_o the_o whole_a man_n and_o to_o the_o whole_a kind_n as_o we_o be_v the_o son_n of_o adam_n and_o then_o in_o his_o loin_n active_o

upon_o the_o body_n as_o it_o consist_v of_o the_o element_n part_n but_o take_v this_o soul_n when_o it_o become_v the_o form_n of_o man_n take_v this_o body_n when_o it_o become_v the_o vessel_n

whole_a man_n be_v become_v sinful_a the_o guilt_n remain_v in_o the_o whole_a nature_n and_o the_o fruit_n of_o this_o sin_n appear_v in_o the_o contrariety_n and_o opposition_n of_o part_n the_o

the_o soul_n of_o our_o parent_n a_o sit_fw-la ex_fw-la traduce_v it_o be_v a_o general_a receive_a opinion_n that_o the_o soul_n be_v immediate_o create_v of_o god_n as_o be_v a_o spirit_n and_o
