You see the Apostle's first words, which are the basis of those that follow; but of them at least I detect no vestige in your treatise. What if I from there elicit something adverse to your opinion. Will you grant me that by death in this place is to be understood that death which the law had threatened to Adam, namely the penalty, and the wages of sin? I do not see by what right you can deny that, especially since you hold that that law regards the whole human race, and that Adam, as God had threatened, died. You will at least grant that death in this place signifies the penalty of the sin which entered into the world.

Latin

Vides prima verba Apostoli, quae sequentium sunt basis; at eorum saltem nullius vestigium deprehendo in tuo tractatu. Quid si ego inde aliquid eliciam sententiae tuae adversum. Dabisne mihi per mortem hoc loco intelligendam esse eam mortem, quam lex Adamo fuerat comminata, poenam scilicet, & stipendium peccati? non video quo iure id negare possis, praesertim cum sentias eam legem ad totum genus humanum spectare, & Adamum, prout Deus minatus fuerat, mortuum esse. Dabis saltem mortem hoc loco significare poenam peccati, quod in mundum introiit.
