PLAC. These snares are none, nor do I easily get free. For first the Apostle has not said that we have sinned in Adam, and even if he had said it, what sense the proposition that we are corrupt and vitiated in Adam can have must be considered. The sense is that we are corrupted by corruption derived from Adam, or, which comes to the same, that Adam's corruption was the fountain from which our corruption sprang, or, that Adam was corrupted, and Adam's corruption was propagated into us.

Latin

PLAC. Hi laquei nulli sunt, neque facile expedio. Primum enim Apostolus non dixit nos in Adamo peccasse, & ut dixisset, propositio nos esse corruptos & vitiatos in Adamo quem sensum habere possit, considerandum est. Sensus est nos derivata ab Adamo corruptione corruptos esse, vel, quod eodem redit, corruptionem Adami fuisse fontem unde nostra scaturiit corruptio, vel, corruptum fuisse Adamum, & corruptionem Adami in nos propagatam fuisse.
