Next, if Adam's actual sin did not enter into the world except by reason of hereditary corruption, it must be confessed that this attribute of having entered into the world, or into humans, agrees of itself and properly and nearest with hereditary corruption, only remotely, and by reason of that corruption, with Adam's actual sin. If therefore that corruption is truly and properly sin, even after baptism, as ours hold against the Papists, is it not manifest that the sin which entered into the world is rather its description than that of Adam's actual sin?

Latin

Deinde, si peccatum actuale Adami non intravit in mundum, nisi ratione corruptionis haereditariae, fatendum est hoc attributum intrasse in mundum, seu homines, convenire per se & proprie & proxime corruptioni haereditariae, remote tantum, & illius corruptionis ratione, peccato actuali Adami. Si igitur corruptio illa est vere & proprie peccatum, etiam post baptismum, ut nostri adversus Pontificios tuentur, nonne manifestum est, peccatum quod in mundum intravit, eius potius descriptionem esse quam peccati actualis Adami?
