On the Imputation of Adam's First Sin · §199

In this very Manuscript I gave the same account of mediate imputation: by sharing this corruption we communicate with Adam's sin, and we consent to it habitually, so to speak. I am plainly distinguishing Adam's sin—the one we share and habitually consent to—from the corruption through which that sharing and consent happen. That sin can only be Adam's first actual. That is what I wanted charged to us, and for that habitual consent. So the Learned Man pits me not against myself but against a fiction of his own making.

Latin

Eandem rationem, imputationis mediatae in hoc ipso Manuscrito proposui his verbis. Hujus enim corruptionis participatione communicamus peccato Adami, eique, ut ita loquar, habitualiter consentimus. Quis non videt me peccatum Adami cui communicamus, cui habitualiter consentimus, distinguere a corruptione qua ei communicamus & consentimus? Id autem aliud esse non potest quam primum illud actuale Adami. Hoc igitur volui nobis imputari, & quidem ob istum ipsum habitualem consensum. Non igitur me mecum committit Vir doctus, sed cum animi sui figmento.
