On the Imputation of Adam's First Sin · §619

Man. Post. Cap. IX: PLAC — otherwise four-term syllogism; conclusion omnes = persons distinct from Adam

Otherwise the Apostle's syllogism would be faulty and composed of a syllogism with four terms; into them death passed; all sinned; therefore into all death passed. For in the conclusion the word "all" marks the persons of all men, distinct among themselves and from Adam's person. So in the minor the same word must likewise signify the distinct and separate persons of all men, both among themselves and from Adam.

Latin

Alioqui vitiosus esset Apostoli syllogismus, & ex quatuor terminis componeretur, quem sic forms: Quicumque peccaverunt, in eos mors transiit; Omnes peccaverunt; Igitur in omnes mors transiit. Nam in conclusione vox omnes notat personas omnium hominum inter se & a persona Adami distinctas & separatas. Ergo necesse est ut in minore eadem vox omnium itidem hominum personas distinctas & separatas cum inter se tum ab Adamo significet.
