On the Imputation of Adam's First Sin · §492

Man. Post. Cap. IX: PLAC — first reason is Beza's; Calvin/Martyr; silence

y first reason is not mine, but of a most great man, Beza, whom the learned man strikes through my side. See if you will his Annot. on Rom. 5. 12. By sin in that place I understand what Calvin, Beza, Martyr, and other theologians of first note of that kind understood, from whom the rest, who accuse me of innovated doctrine, depart: which lest it lie open, mention of Beza, and his words, from which the nerve and strength of the argument hung, (so much so that scarcely in Paul with the article added does it declare anything else,) the learned man passed by in deep silence.

Latin

PLAC. Haec prima mea ratio non est mea, sed maximi viri, Bezae, quem Vir doctus per latus meum ferit. Vide sis eius Annot. ad Rom. 5. 12. Per peccatum eo loco id intelligo, quod Calvinus, Beza, Martyr, aliique eiusmodi primae notae Theologi, intellexerunt, à quibus caeteri, qui me innovatae doctrinae accusant, discedunt: quod ne pateret, mentionem Bezae, eiusque verba, unde nervus & robur argumenti pendebat, (adeo quidem ut vix apud Paulum addito articulo aliud declaret,) alto silentio Vir doctus praeteriit.
