But, whatever the case, I contend that that actual sin of Adam is not our sin. Therefore it cannot justly be imputed to us. I grant that to impute is to ascribe, to attribute, to write to one's account: but certain things are to be observed in this place—first of all that distinction of imputation into antecedent and consequent, or immediate and mediate, which, when I was setting the state of the question, I explained in Cap. 2, and do not repeat here: I ask you to remember it. Next this also ought to meet our thought: that what is in dispute between us is not any imputation whatever, but a judicial one, which just punishment follows.

Latin

Sed, quicquid sit, Contendo peccatum illud Adami actuale nostrum peccatum non esse. Itaque nobis jure imputari non posse. Fateor imputare esse tribuere, attribuere, adscribere: sed quaedam sunt hoc loco observanda, in primis distinctio illa imputationis in antecedentem & consequentem seu immediatam & mediatam, quam, dum statum quaestionis constituerem, Cap. 2. explicavi, nec hic repeto: ejus ut memineris te rogo. Deinde illud etiam cogitationi nostrae obversari debet, agi inter nos de imputatione non qualibet, sed judiciaria, quam punitio justa sequatur.
