On the Imputation of Adam's First Sin · §651

Man. Post. Cap. IX: PLAC — if imputed, not in us; what Adam shared by imputation he did not by real existence

If therefore Adam's actual sin is imputed to us, his vice—or habitual and implanted sin—is imputed to us too. If it is imputed, it is not in us. For what Adam shared with us by imputation he did not share with us by real existence. The sin we sinned in Adam's person we did not really sin in our own persons after we were born.

Latin

Si ergo peccatum actuale Adami nobis imputatur, imputatur etiam nobis eius vitium sive peccatum habituale & insitum. Si imputatur, non est in nobis. Quod enim nobiscum Adamus communicavit imputatione, id non communicavit nobiscum reali existentia. Quod peccatum peccavimus in persona Adami, id non peccavimus realiter in nostris personis postea quam geniti sumus.
