sin_n rather_o than_o our_o father_n whereas_o indeed_o it_o come_v more_o from_o adam_n then_o from_o either_o sect._n 3_o 1._o next_o let_v we_o consider_v why_o he_o rather_o mention_v his_o mother_n in_o this_o case_n of_o original_a sin_n and_o not_o his_o father_n especial_o see_v all_o our_o divine_n affirm_v that_o although_o eva_n have_v sin_v yet_o if_o adam_n have_v remain_v innocent_a original_a sin_n shall_v not_o have_v be_v derive_v unto_o their_o posterity_n because_o they_o say_v adam_z alone_z as_o a_o public_a person_n and_o general_a father_n of_o all_o mankind_n do_v represent_v the_o person_n of_o all_o his_o successor_n and_o for_o they_o as_o well_o as_o for_o himself_o do_v receive_v original_a justice_n by_o the_o loss_n whereof_o he_o bring_v we_o all_o as_o be_v part_n of_o he_o as_o our_o natural_a head_n into_o this_o detriment_n of_o original_a sin_n wherefore_o in_o the_o same_o respect_n also_o though_o cayn_n or_o any_o other_o sinner_n have_v first_o sin_v adam_n be_v still_o uprighte_a yet_o their_o sin_n shall_v only_o have_v deform_v themselves_o and_o not_o have_v perteyn_v to_o we_o because_o we_o be_v comprehend_v in_o none_o as_o our_o general_a father_n save_v only_o in_o adam_n 2._o further_o it_o be_v allege_v in_o favour_n of_o the_o woman_n that_o she_o concur_v but_o passive_o unto_o generation_n as_o only_o give_v the_o material_a part_n of_o conceptione_n not_o induce_v the_o active_a form_n which_o procee_v from_o the_o man_n who_o therefore_o by_o philosopher_n and_o physician_n be_v account_v the_o principal_a party_n and_o cheifer_n cause_n of_o generation_n and_o yet_o here_o about_o original_a sin_n the_o mother_n be_v name_v only_o and_o not_o the_o father_n because_o at_o the_o time_n of_o our_o quicken_a when_o first_o in_o deed_n we_o do_v contracte_v original_a sin_n than_o we_o be_v in_o her_o womb_n than_o she_o keep_v and_o nourish_v we_o and_o not_o the_o father_n and_o so_o she_o be_v say_v to_o conceive_v we_o in_o sin_n not_o mention_v the_o father_n 3._o and_o though_o eva_n can_v not_o be_v author_n of_o original_a sin_n to_o all_o her_o posterity_n as_o be_v afore_o say_v yet_o our_o next_o parent_n both_o man_n and_o woman_n be_v always_o the_o instrument_n and_o successive_a conveyor_n of_o original_a sin_n by_o descendence_n from_o adam_n i_o say_v our_o parent_n and_o ancestor_n be_v conveyor_n and_o instrument_n not_o cause_n or_o author_n '_o for_o only_a adam_n be_v so_o to_o be_v account_v and_o see_v the_o mother_n be_v the_o material_a instrument_n and_o conduyte_o which_o be_v more_o evident_a to_o our_o sense_n then_o the_o formal_a therefore_o be_v she_o also_o name_v rather_o than_o the_o father_n 4._o also_o i_o say_v that_o in_o deed_n and_o real_o we_o do_v only_o contracte_v original_a sin_n at_o the_o time_n when_o we_o be_v quicken_v and_o receive_v life_n in_o our_o mother_n womb_n for_o though_o at_o the_o instant_n of_o the_o very_a first_o conception_n those_o inform_v and_o mix_v seed_n may_v be_v say_v improper_o in_o debito_fw-la to_o have_v a_o obligation_n to_o be_v afterward_o subject_a to_o original_a sin_n when_o it_o come_v to_o be_v a_o live_a humane_a creature_n yet_o proper_o and_o true_o in_o effecto_fw-la the_o child_n be_v not_o infect_v with_o original_a sin_n until_o it_o come_v to_o have_v the_o soul_n infuse_v and_o unite_v to_o the_o body_n which_o be_v not_o till_o the_o quicken_a and_o have_v no_o soul_n it_o be_v not_o a_o perfect_v humane_a creature_n but_o only_o little_a more_o than_o a_o mass_n of_o flesh_n which_o without_o soul_n can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v real_o capable_a of_o any_o sin_n 5._o wherefore_o at_o that_o time_n be_v in_o the_o mother_n womb_n and_o also_o have_v be_v there_o nourish_v until_o that_o time_n and_o so_o maynteyn_v afterward_o until_o the_o birth_n the_o mother_n be_v rather_o name_v then_o the_o father_n and_o so_o here_o the_o hebrew_n word_n hama_fw-la do_v signify_v to_o give_v heat_n which_o natural_a hea●e_n of_o the_o mother_n womb_n cherish_v the_o infante_n genebra_n some_o read_v it_o thus_o hierom._n with_o sin_n my_o mother_n

and_o the_o first_o birth_n in_o utero_fw-la be_v all_o one_o and_o because_o then_o proper_o we_o be_v first_o in_o deed_n capable_a of_o original_a sin_n therefore_o we_o may_v be_v so_o say_v either_o to_o be_v bear_v of_o our_o mother_n in_o original_a sin_n viz_o in_o the_o first_o birth_n or_o to_o be_v conceive_v of_o she_o in_o original_a sin_n viz_o in_o the_o second_o conception_n but_o at_o any_o of_o these_o birth_n or_o conception_n we_o be_v rather_o say_v to_o be_v conceive_v or_o bear_v of_o our_o mother_n then_o of_o our_o father_n because_o to_o conceive_v or_o bear_v

unto_o we_o also_o how_o it_o be_v account_v a_o guilty_a fault_n in_o child_n 1._o now_o let_v we_o see_v what_o original_a sin_n be_v in_o his_o own_o nature_n &_o what_o effect_n it_o have_v in_o
