why_o parent_n iustify_v &_o in_o state_n of_o grace_n do_v nevertheless_o beget_v child_n subject_v to_o sin_n &_o original_a corruption_n as_o much_o as_o other_o not_o so_o much_o because_o

neither_o be_v this_o original_a sin_n derive_v from_o the_o one_o or_o from_o the_o other_o by_o generation_n but_o follow_v by_o imitation_n first_o it_o be_v answer_v in_o general_a that_o it_o

original_a sin_n nor_o be_v this_o sin_n any_o action_n and_o therefore_o no_o imitation_n for_o to_o imitate_v be_v to_o do_v somewhat_o but_o it_o be_v call_v sin_n original_a not_o actual_a and_o be_v account_v a_o guilt_n of_o our_o nature_n not_o a_o fact_n of_o our_o person_n 1._o 3._o next_o about_o the_o proposition_n as_o all_o divine_v agree_v that_o the_o soul_n be_v the_o seat_n of_o

body_n these_o man_n say_v the_o flesh_n must_v needs_o be_v the_o mean_n of_o convey_v this_o sin_n unto_o the_o soul_n as_o unto_o his_o seat_n for_o if_o the_o soul_n shall_v be_v create_v alone_o and_o not_o be_v join_v to_o the_o body_n it_o shall_v in_o that_o case_n be_v free_a from_o this_o infection_n and_o it_o seem_v just_a that_o as_o adam_n flesh_n be_v first_o corrupt_v by_o his_o soul_n which_o first_o admit_v sin_n so_o now_o the_o soul_n shall_v be_v first_o corrupt_v by_o the_o flesh_n still_o derive_v sin_n and_o so_o original_a sin_n be_v both_o a_o corruption_n of_o penality_n subiect_v we_o to_o all_o misery_n and_o a_o corruption_n of_o viciosity_n incline_v we_o to_o all_o sin_n 1._o by_o rebellion_n against_o the_o spirit_n 2._o by_o draw_v the_o soul_n downward_o 3._o because_o the_o soul_n of_o itself_o be_v not_o able_a to_o govern_v all_o our_o appetite_n without_o divine_a grace_n 4._o thus_o therefore_o say_v they_o that_o the_o flesh_n do_v deprave_v the_o soul_n be_v unite_v unto_o it_o as_o a_o wound_n in_o the_o body_n make_v the_o soul_n grieve_v but_o if_o you_o cut_v the_o flesh_n want_v life_n it_o feel_v no_o pain_n so_o the_o flesh_n have_v not_o sin_n in_o itself_o as_o in_o his_o seat_n no_o more_o than_o wine_n have_v in_o itself_o drunkenness_n and_o yet_o make_v other_o drink_v and_o so_o the_o body_n be_v able_a to_o

distemper_n or_o quality_n of_o the_o body_n make_v the_o mind_n to_o be_v mad_a or_o foolish_a and_o so_o the_o corrupt_a distemper_n of_o our_o flesh_n do_v disorder_v our_o soul_n whit_n sinfullnes_n which_o sinful_a distemper_n be_v not_o actual_o but_o dispositive_o in_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o parent_n or_o flesh_n of_o the_o infante_n nor_o be_v it_o in_o the_o flesh_n until_o

radical_a concupiscence_n which_o be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o positive_a material_a part_n of_o original_a sin_n 10._o but_o the_o formal_a true_a nature_n of_o original_a sin_n consist_v privative_o

be_v in_o the_o natural_a generation_n of_o all_o man_n for_o if_o by_o supernatural_a privilege_n any_o parent_n shall_v engendre_n without_o all_o lust_n yet_o the_o child_n shall_v be_v infect_v

shall_v have_v be_v no_o sin_n but_o by_o lust_n may_v be_v mean_v the_o propagation_n of_o our_o corrupt_a nature_n of_o which_o corruption_n lust_n be_v a_o certain_a sign_n &_o effect_n wherefore_o
