GAR. 3. To impute another's sin to someone is to hold him in the same place as if in his own person he himself had perpetrated or committed the sin. But habits are neither perpetrated nor committed. Therefore they are not imputed. PLAC. What then will become of the sin of omission? For it is not properly perpetrated or committed: rather omission is opposed to commission. You see also, reader, that from this it follows that the habitual sin of origin, or corruption, is not truly sin: for every true sin is imputed, unless it is forgiven; and to forgive is not to impute sin.

Latin

GAR. 3. Imputare alicui peccatum alienum, est ipsum eodem loco habere, ac si in propria persona ipsemet peccatum patrasset, aut commisisset. Atqui habitus non patrantur, neque committuntur. Itaque nec imputantur. PLAC. Quid igitur fiet de peccato omissionis? neque enim proprie patratur aut committitur: immo omissio commissionis opponitur. Vides etiam lector hinc sequi peccatum originis habituale seu corruptionem non esse vere peccatum: omne enim vere peccatum imputatur, nisi condonetur: condonare enim est non imputare peccatum.
