good_a as_o good_a so_o far_o as_o he_o perceive_v it_o and_o go_v with_o the_o great_a inclination_n to_o the_o great_a good_a but_o to_o man_n in_o his_o natural_a integrity_n god_n appear_v as_o

though_o he_o may_v not_o know_v the_o immediate_a vision_n he_o can_v not_o but_o know_v that_o it_o be_v his_o happiness_n to_o be_v accept_v and_o belove_v by_o his_o maker_n and_o enjoy_v he_o

2._o as_o to_o the_o next_o question_n wherein_o original_a righteousness_n do_v consist_v 1._o it_o consist_v in_o the_o soul_n inclination_n to_o god_n as_o god_n that_o be_v in_o the_o habit_n or_o disposition_n or_o propensity_n of_o the_o soul_n to_o love_n god_n for_o himself_o as_o the_o infinite_a good_a and_o also_o as_o our_o felicity_n 2._o in_o the_o understanding_n disposition_n to_o

the_o first_o sin_n be_v actual_a and_o thence_o follow_v the_o habitual_a pravity_n in_o we_o the_o first_o in_o order_n of_o nature_n be_v adam_n sin_n impute_v just_o because_o we_o be_v in_o he_o

1._o the_o privation_n of_o the_o true_a love_n of_o god_n as_o our_o principal_a end_n to_o be_v love_v for_o himself_o and_o as_o our_o felicity_n and_o herewith_o the_o privation_n of_o the_o love_n of_o holiness_n his_o image_n and_o so_o of_o the_o rectitude_n of_o the_o will_n 2._o the_o privation_n of_o the_o true_a and_o savoury_a knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o his_o image_n and_o estimation_n of_o they_o here_o note_v that_o it_o be_v the_o privation_n of_o the_o inclination_n disposition_n or_o habit_n that_o i_o speak_v of_o and_o not_o of_o the_o act_n 3._o in_o a_o

the_o will_n to_o ourselves_o especial_o our_o carnal_a interest_n the_o matter_n of_o original_a sin_n be_v in_o these_o ii_o for_o the_o explication_n of_o the_o thesis_n i_o desire_v that_o these_o thing_n may_v be_v note_v beside_o what_o be_v say_v 1._o it_o be_v original_a sin_n increase_v by_o our_o sinful_a act_n that_o hinder_v we_o from_o know_v original_a sin_n as_o it_o be_v the_o ophthalmie_a or_o gutta_fw-la serena_fw-la or_o suffusion_n that_o hinder_v the_o eye_n by_o the_o glass_n to_o see_v its_o own_o disease_n original_a sin_n lie_v very_o much_o in_o a_o inordinate_a self-love_n or_o selfish_a inclination_n and_o the_o more_o any_o man_n have_v of_o that_o the_o more_o unwilling_a and_o unapt_a he_o be_v to_o know_v it_o and_o much_o more_o unapt_a to_o be_v true_o humble_v for_o it_o and_o go_v unsanctified_a man_n that_o be_v stranger_n to_o true_a self-denial_n be_v apt_a to_o plead_v against_o the_o be_v of_o original_a sin_n and_o be_v hardly_o bring_v to_o know_v it_o in_o themselves_o 2._o sin_n be_v a_o word_n that_o be_v usual_o and_o proper_o take_v so_o large_o as_o to_o contain_v all_o moral_a evil_n or_o all_o defect_n inclination_n and_o action_n contrary_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n and_o deserve_v any_o punishment_n and_o thus_o we_o take_v it_o in_o the_o question_n but_o sometime_o sin_n be_v take_v more_o narrow_o as_o signify_v only_o the_o actual_a transgression_n of_o the_o law_n but_o we_o take_v it_o not_o so_o narrow_o here_o for_o one_o kind_n of_o sin_n only_o 3._o some_o sin_n have_v a_o great_a degree_n of_o sinfulness_n or_o malignity_n in_o they_o than_o some_o other_o have_v and_o so_o when_o we_o say_v that_o infant_n have_v original_a sin_n we_o do_v not_o equal_v it_o in_o degree_n of_o malignity_n with_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o adult_n material_o there_o be_v more_o malignity_n or_o opposition_n to_o god_n in_o original_n than_o in_o ordinary_a actual_a sin_n but_o formal_o there_o be_v more_o culpability_n in_o many_o actual_a sin_n than_o
