if_o this_o be_v so_o here_o be_v a_o difficulty_n arise_v we_o be_v punish_v and_o that_o with_o death_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o another_o how_o can_v that_o be_v just_a and_o if_o god_n may_v

the_o tree_n of_o life_n whereof_o so_o long_o as_o he_o may_v eat_v it_o will_v save_v his_o life_n but_o upon_o his_o sin_n god_n exclude_v he_o from_o it_o and_o have_v not_o the_o free_a to_o

have_v the_o tree_n to_o eat_v on_o and_o can_v be_v punish_v by_o the_o exclusion_n from_o what_o we_o never_o have_v but_o according_a to_o nature_n we_o be_v mortal_a and_o of_o course_n appoint_v to_o die_v our_o death_n as_o natural_a be_v neither_o good_a nor_o evil_a in_o itself_o but_o in_o regard_n to_o what_o follow_v it_o that_o be_v the_o reward_n to_o come_v according_a as_o out_o

that_o it_o be_v not_o as_o we_o be_v in_o adam_n loin_n but_o as_o we_o be_v in_o adam_n covenant_n that_o we_o sin_v in_o he_o and_o so_o be_v liable_a to_o the_o same_o punishment_n i_o answer_v

be_v too_o grievous_a for_o my_o embrace_n because_o it_o make_v the_o constitution_n only_o of_o god_n that_o be_v his_o will_n alone_o without_o any_o of_o the_o sinner_n to_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o man_n damnation_n i_o will_v yet_o not_o leave_v but_o see_v i_o be_o fall_v on_o the_o point_n i_o will_v consider_v what_o original_a sini●_n be_v that_o i_o own_o there_o be_v three_o thing_n

whence_o actual_a transgression_n proceed_v for_o the_o second_o i_o have_v speak_v to_o for_o the_o first_o the_o school_n have_v conceive_v that_o adam_n be_v endow_v with_o a_o supernatural_a

thing_n as_o that_o adam_n have_v any_o righteousness_n or_o grace_n supernatural_a but_o only_a nature_n entire_a for_o grace_n be_v indeed_o a_o medicinal_a thing_n or_o auxiliatory_a for_o fall_v
