be_v upon_o the_o son_n of_o adam_n from_o the_o day_n that_o they_o go_v out_o of_o their_o mother_n womb_n till_o the_o day_n that_o they_o return_v to_o the_o mother_n of_o all_o thing_n will_v

when_o she_o be_v judge_v though_o no_o flesh_n live_a can_v be_v justify_v in_o her_o sight_n the_o very_a punishment_n and_o infliction_n from_o god_n be_v sufficient_a to_o argue_v the_o sin_n and_o guilt_n in_o we_o for_o death_n reign_v by_o one_o not_o only_o by_o one_o man_n in_o the_o masculine_a as_o he_o speak_v immediate_o before_o but_o by_o one_o in_o the_o neuter_n one_o sin_n for_o death_n can_v never_o so_o have_v reign_v by_o the_o one_o man_n have_v it_o not_o be_v by_o the_o one_o sin_n yet_o see_v how_o he_o will_v labour_v to_o bring_v the_o original_a punishment_n on_o our_o head_n that_o will_v not_o admit_v we_o to_o bring_v the_o original_a sin_n so_o much_o as_o upon_o our_o shoulder_n for_o so_o he_o suppose_v it_o if_o the_o sin_n of_o adam_n alone_o can_v bring_v death_n upon_o the_o world_n who_o by_o imitation_n of_o his_o transgression_n on_o the_o stock_n of_o their_o own_o natural_a choice_n do_v sin_n against_o god_n though_o not_o after_o the_o similitude_n of_o adam_n transgression_n how_o say_v he_o no_o sin_n but_o in_o imitation_n no_o punishment_n but_o for_o imitation_n he_o know_v full_a well_o who_o explode_a heresy_n that_o be_v and_o therefore_o shall_v do_v very_o well_o to_o renounce_v both_o name_n and_o thing_n at_o once_o but_o how_o agree_v his_o own_o word_n to_o themselves_o sin_v by_o imitation_n and_o yet_o not_o after_o the_o similitude_n of_o adam_n transgression_n which_o can_v genuine_o no_o nor_o convenient_o be_v interpret_v but_o of_o sin_v actual_o and_o by_o imitation_n yea_o let_v it_o be_v understand_v of_o sin_v less_o than_o he_o do_v yet_o so_o it_o be_v by_o imitation_n again_o sin_v on_o the_o stock_n of_o their_o own_o natural_a choice_n and_o yet_o not_o sin_v after_o the_o similitude_n of_o adam_n transgression_n why_o how_o sin_v adam_n but_o out_o of_o the_o stock_n of_o his_o own_o natural_a choice_n and_o how_o sin_v we_o in_o he_o but_o out_o of_o the_o stock_n of_o his_o natural_a choice_n for_o indeed_o he_o be_v our_o natural_a stock_n and_o we_o be_v the_o branch_n thereof_o and_o it_o be_v he_o that_o receive_v the_o whole_a stock_n of_o nature_n choice_n liberty_n free_a will_n and_o consent_n for_o himself_o and_o likewise_o for_o we_o all_o and_o out_o of_o this_o stock_n of_o natural_a choice_n and_o liberty_n it_o be_v that_o we_o sin_v not_o only_o by_o he_o but_o in_o he_o and_o with_o he_o wherefore_o i_o hearty_o wish_v he_o to_o be_v wary_a how_o he_o exempt_v sin_v after_o the_o similitude_n of_o adam_n transgression_n and_o sin_v on_o the_o stock_n of_o our_o own_o natural_a choice_n each_o from_o other_o lest_o he_o imp●ir_a that_o stock_n and_o overthrow_v that_o rock_n of_o liberty_n and_o free_a will_n which_o against_o both_o supralapsarian_n and_o sublapsarian_n he_o labour_v ere_o while_o so_o earnest_o to_o establish_v and_o so_o prove_v to_o strike_v upon_o they_o and_o himself_o and_o the_o divine_a attribute_n all_o at_o once_o but_o to_o remedy_v all_o this_o here_o it_o be_v not_o only_o by_o one_o man_n who_o have_v his_o personal_a choice_n but_o by_o one_o sin_n wherein_o be_v our_o
