of_o christ_n be_v not_o only_o impute_v to_o all_o man_n bear_v after_o christ_n but_o past_a back_n upon_o all_o those_o likewise_o bear_v before_o christ_n and_o as_o it_o be_v fit_v it_o shall_v be_v so_o likewise_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o mystical_a imputation_n persuade_v we_o that_o it_o be_v so_o spiritual_o i_o mean_v and_o by_o way_n of_o conception_n according_a to_o which_o mystical_a imputation_n take_v hold_v of_o man_n for_o as_o lightning_n break_v out_o of_o a_o cloud_n enlighten_v with_o one_o flash_n thing_n above_o it_o and_o thing_n below_o it_o so_o the_o imputation_n that_o break_v out_o of_o the_o sin_n of_o adam_n dart_v one_o and_o the_o same_o lightning_n upon_o all_o man_n those_o that_o be_v bear_v after_o adam_n and_o those_o that_o be_v bear_v before_o he_o and_o the_o same_o manner_n of_o mystery_n which_o may_v teach_v we_o that_o the_o death_n of_o adam_n pass_v upon_o all_o man_n that_o be_v not_o bear_v many_o age_n after_o adam_n will_v teach_v we_o that_o death_n can_v reign_v backward_o upon_o those_o that_o be_v bear_v before_o he_o never_o so_o long_o for_o the_o manner_n of_o imputation_n be_v alike_o for_o the_o time_n past_a and_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v nor_o be_v there_o any_o new_a miracle_n to_o be_v seek_v for_o that_o sin_n shall_v be_v impute_v to_o man_n create_v before_o adam_n if_o it_o be_v believe_v to_o be_v impute_v to_o man_n create_v after_o adam_n let_v we_o as_o far_o as_o we_o conceive_v view_v all_o man_n from_o the_o begin_n to_o the_o end_n and_o at_o last_o you_o will_v confess_v that_o no_o other_o can_v sin_v but_o according_a to_o the_o similitude_n of_o the_o transgression_n of_o adam_n but_o only_o those_o that_o be_v beget_v and_o bear_v before_o adam_n for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o all_o man_n after_o adam_n and_o their_o son_n and_o who_o shall_v also_o be_v by_o they_o beget_v do_v sin_n according_a to_o the_o similitude_n of_o the_o transgression_n of_o adam_n what_o kind_n of_o man_n must_v those_o be_v i_o beseech_v you_o who_o do_v not_o sin_n according_a to_o the_o similitude_n of_o the_o transgression_n of_o adam_n certain_o it_o must_v be_v those_o who_o be_v bear_v before_o adam_n because_o the_o apostle_n say_v manifest_o they_o sin_v before_o the_o law_n rom._n 5._o and_o to_o who_o before_o the_o law_n and_o adam_n their_o sin_n be_v not_o impute_v because_o sin_n be_v not_o impute_v when_o the_o law_n be_v not_o and_o therefore_o they_o neither_o sin_v nor_o can_v sin_v according_a to_o the_o similitude_n of_o the_o transgression_n of_o adam_n to_o make_v the_o difference_n betwixt_o they_o and_o all_o the_o posterity_n of_o adam_n who_o sin_v after_o the_o law_n because_o after_o adam_n to_o who_o the_o sin_n of_o adam_n be_v impute_v because_o sin_n begin_v to_o be_v impute_v from_o the_o law_n and_o from_o adam_n and_o who_o can_v sin_v only_o according_a to_o this_o real_a similitude_n of_o the_o transgression_n of_o adam_n of_o which_o we_o here_o speak_v and_o which_o no_o doubt_n the_o apostle_n mean_v let_v famous_a man_n pardon_v i_o that_o have_v expound_v st._n paul_n upon_o this_o

not_o according_a to_o the_o similitude_n of_o the_o transgression_n of_o adam_n because_o they_o sin_v not_o actual_o as_o adam_n do_v yea_o if_o they_o have_v sin_v actual_o they_o have_v not_o sin_v according_a to_o similitude_n because_o act_n be_v the_o reality_n of_o a_o thing_n no_o similitude_n and_o in_o that_o very_a regard_n because_o infant_n sin_v not_o actual_o they_o must_v needs_o sin_v according_a to_o similitude_n but_o the_o mixture_n of_o those_o natural_a sin_n of_o adam_n deceive_v those_o most_o famous_a man_n which_o be_v inherent_a to_o he_o together_o with_o that_o legal_a sin_n which_o pass_v upon_o all_o man_n for_o they_o imagine_v that_o child_n sin_v not_o according_a to_o the_o similitude_n of_o the_o transgression_n of_o adam_n because_o they_o sin_v not_o actual_o as_o adam_n sin_v as_o for_o example_n because_o they_o kill_v not_o actual_o as_o adam_n kill_v or_o may_v have_v kill_v because_o they_o commit_v not_o adultery_n actual_o as_o adam_n do_v or_o may_v have_v do_v because_o they_o steal_v not_o actual_o as_o adam_n steal_v or_o may_v have_v steal_v and_o so_o of_o the_o rest_n of_o adam_n natural_a sin_n but_o here_o there_o be_v no_o intention_n concern_v the_o similitude_n of_o all_o his_o natural_a sin_n but_o only_o of_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o disobedience_n into_o which_o disobedience_n no_o man_n nor_o no_o child_n can_v ever_o fall_v actual_o the_o apostle_n say_v not_o who_o have_v not_o sin_v according_a to_o the_o similitude_n of_o adam_n sin_n nay_o that_o only_a who_o have_v not_o sin_v according_a to_o the_o similitude_n of_o adam_n transgaession_n for_o here_o he_o intend_v nothing_o concern_v all_o the_o sin_n of_o adam_n and_o those_o natural_a sin_n of_o adam_n which_o only_o concern_v
