that_o there_o be_v the_o same_o natural_a and_o meritorious_a force_n in_o cain_n sin_n to_o turn_v his_o nature_n further_o from_o god_n as_o be_v in_o adam_n to_o turn_v it_o so_o far_o away_o or_o

worse_o by_o his_o own_o actual_a sin_n experience_n prove_v it_o too_o full_o scripture_n say_v that_o they_o that_o have_v be_v accustom_v to_o do_v evil_a can_v no_o more_o learn_v to_o do_v well_o than_o a_o blackmoor_n can_v change_v his_o skin_n or_o a_o leopard_n his_o spot_n and_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n that_o i_o know_v of_o that_o can_v be_v give_v why_o a_o more_o corrupt_a parent_n shall_v not_o beget_v a_o child_n more_o corrupt_a and_o deliver_v he_o the_o sinful_a improvement_n of_o his_o pravity_n as_o well_o as_o that_o all_o sinful_a deprave_a parent_n shall_v beget_v deprave_v child_n and_o though_o this_o controversy_n be_v mix_v with_o the_o great_a difficulty_n about_o the_o propagation_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o the_o matter_n of_o its_o corruption_n yet_o which_o way_n soever_o those_o be_v determine_v it_o make_v not_o against_o the_o thing_n that_o i_o assert_v if_o the_o soul_n be_v ex_fw-la traduce_v and_o so_o corrupt_v than_o the_o case_n be_v most_o easy_a if_o man_n beget_v the_o sensitive_a soul_n corrupt_v and_o god_n do_v then_o promove_v that_o to_o the_o excellency_n of_o be_v a_o rational_a soul_n as_o some_o think_v the_o

the_o thing_n itself_o that_o god_n by_o way_n of_o penalty_n shall_v create_v the_o soul_n sinful_a immediate_o seem_v plain_o to_o make_v he_o the_o author_n of_o sin_n but_o if_o it_o be_v so_o yet_o there_o be_v the_o same_o reason_n of_o demerit_n to_o provoke_v he_o to_o create_v the_o soul_n of_o cain_n son_n yet_o more_o sinful_a as_o there_o be_v in_o adam_n to_o provoke_v he_o to_o create_v it_o sinful_a at_o all_o arg._n 3._o beside_o experience_n assure_v we_o that_o all_o child_n bring_v not_o a_o equal_a degree_n of_o pravity_n into_o the_o world_n if_o we_o may_v judge_v by_o their_o first_o exercise_n of_o reason_n or_o use_v of_o passion_n but_o if_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n make_v since_o it_o shall_v seem_v that_o all_o shall_v be_v corrupt_v alike_o further_a than_o god_n cure_v any_o and_o so_o make_v a_o difference_n we_o see_v also_o that_o many_o of_o the_o child_n of_o the_o most_o vicious_a people_n be_v more_o vicious_a than_o the_o ordinary_a sort_n of_o man_n be_v we_o see_v also_o that_o some_o man_n body_n be_v distemper_v by_o their_o vice_n they_o propagate_v those_o bodily_a distemper_n to_o their_o posterity_n which_o we_o evident_o perceive_v do_v make_v a_o great_a alteration_n on_o the_o soul_n from_o whence_o we_o see_v some_o person_n very_o sottish_a and_o silly_a yea_o some_o idiot_n and_o some_o extreme_a talkative_a some_o extreme_a passionate_a some_o lustful_a some_o malicious_a some_o gluttonous_a some_o drunkard_n and_o this_o above_o the_o corrupt_a inclination_n which_o appear_v in_o the_o ordinary_a sort_n of_o man_n and_o plain_o say_v by_o the_o temper_n of_o the_o body_n obj._n 1_o if_o our_o corruption_n be_v increase_v by_o the_o sin_n of_o immediate_a parent_n than_o the_o world_n will_v grow_v worse_o and_o worse_o and_o we_o shall_v have_v be_v devil_n long_o before_o this_o age_n answ_n 1._o most_o divine_n say_v that_o the_o first_o sin_n will_v have_v do_v all_o this_o if_o god_n in_o mercy_n have_v not_o prevent_v or_o remedy_v it_o 2._o god_n still_o resolve_v to_o keep_v the_o world_n in_o order_n under_o his_o government_n and_o therefore_o restrain_v corruption_n and_o will_v not_o suffer_v it_o to_o grow_v as_o according_a to_o its_o nature_n it_o will_v 3._o this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o common_a benefit_n that_o the_o world_n receive_v by_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o redeemer_n that_o they_o grow_v not_o as_o bad_a as_o else_o they_o will_v 4._o for_o the_o sake_n of_o the_o church_n god_n will_v restrain_v they_o obj._n 2._o we_o see_v many_o of_o the_o worst_a man_n have_v good_a child_n answ_n no_o man_n corruption_n do_v put_v his_o child_n into_o a_o remediless_a condition_n and_o therefore_o god_n may_v sanctify_v who_o and_o when_o he_o please_v so_o may_v he_o do_v also_o by_o the_o parent_n themselves_o for_o all_o their_o sin_n and_o yet_o those_o sin_n do_v make_v they_o worse_o obj._n 3_o then_o you_o may_v say_v that_o grace_n be_v propagate_v by_o generation_n from_o our_o immediate_a parent_n as_o well_o as_o sin_n and_o yet_o experience_n tell_v we_o the_o contrary_a answ_n 1._o this_o make_v as_o much_o against_o the_o propagation_n of_o original_a corruption_n from_o adam_n as_o from_o our_o near_a parent_n if_o it_o be_v of_o any_o force_n it_o will_v be_v against_o both_o 2._o there_o be_v so_o great_a a_o difference_n between_o grace_n and_o sin_n that_o quite_o alter_v the_o case_n for_o 1._o grace_n be_v something_o extrinsecal_o adventitious_a and_o now_o as_o to_o the_o cause_n of_o it_o and_o manner_n of_o work_v it_o supernatural_a but_o so_o be_v not_o sin_n 2._o grace_n be_v a_o adventitious_a perfect_a quality_n sin_n be_v a_o defect_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o rational_a faculty_n but_o defect_n be_v more_o easy_o propagate_v than_o adventitious_a quality_n for_o one_o require_v nothing_o thereto_o but_o a_o defective_a nature_n for_o nothing_o can_v convey_v to_o another_o that_o which_o it_o have_v not_o itself_o but_o the_o other_o require_v more_o than_o nature_n to_o its_o propagation_n no_o acquire_v knowledge_n or_o skill_n in_o language_n science_n art_n or_o manufacture_n be_v propagate_v to_o posterity_n by_o nature_n but_o the_o ignorance_n of_o these_o be_v natural_a 3._o but_o above_o all_o it_o be_v considerable_a that_o original_a sin_n so_o far_o as_o it_o contain_v a_o positive_a inclination_n seem_v to_o be_v radical_o in_o the_o inordination_n of_o the_o sensitive_a appetite_n rage_v against_o the_o rule_n of_o reason_n though_o the_o rational_a faculty_n be_v corrupt_v too_o and_o give_v up_o itself_o to_o the_o slavery_n of_o the_o sensitive_a yet_o the_o sensitive_a seem_v to_o be_v the_o root_n now_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o nature_n do_v much_o in_o propagation_n of_o the_o sensitive_a or_o else_o man_n shall_v do_v less_o in_o generation_n than_o a_o beast_n but_o grace_n be_v radical_o subject_v in_o the_o rational_a faculty_n though_o by_o participation_n also_o it_o reach_v the_o sensitive_a and_o here_o nature_n do_v less_o in_o propagation_n we_o see_v by_o experience_n that_o a_o natural_a gentleness_n and_o calmness_n of_o the_o passion_n and_o such_o other_o low_a common_a virtue_n as_o be_v subject_v in_o the_o sensitive_a part_n be_v bear_v with_o some_o man_n and_o from_o the_o temperament_n of_o the_o body_n one_o man_n be_v more_o mild_a patient_a temperate_a than_o another_o but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o the_o intellectual_a perfection_n nor_o christian_a grace_n faith_n hope_n or_o charity_n i_o shall_v now_o proceed_v to_o prove_v so_o much_o of_o the_o affirmative_a as_o i_o have_v here_o own_v more_o than_o be_v now_o hold_v viz._n that_o there_o arise_v to_o child_n from_o the_o sin_n of_o their_o near_a parent_n such_o a_o imperfect_a guilt_n so_o call_v by_o analogy_n of_o attribution_n as_o that_o god_n may_v in_o vindictive_a justice_n inflict_v on_o they_o for_o the_o same_o the_o penalty_n so_o call_v by_o the_o same_o analogy_n both_o of_o temporal_a death_n and_o of_o eternal_a at_o least_o as_o to_o the_o penalty_n of_o loss_n suppose_v that_o it_o be_v not_o pardon_v through_o christ_n and_o this_o i_o prove_v by_o these_o follow_a argument_n arg._n 1._o if_o we_o be_v guilty_a of_o
