The sin of the posterity, is that into which all the posterity of Adam, & Heuah did fall. And that is two fold: originall or actuall sin.
* 1.1Originall sin, is that sin, in which all of vs are conceiued, & borne, who do descend by a carnall generation. Paule calleth it the sinne dwelling in vs. Rom. 7.20. Psal. 51.7. Ephes. 2.3. Rom. 5.12.

Originall naughtinesse, is a naturall depra∣uing and corruption of mans whole nature.

Naughtinesse of the body is also two fold: the disorder of the moueable members, and diseases which come by nature.
