But what is deriued from Adam to his posteritie?

Both the formall and the materiall part also of sinne, that is as the Apostle teacheth, manifestly, Rom. 5. from the xii. verse to the end of the chapter, not onely a depriuing of original righteousnesse, & a corruption of mās whole nature, but also a guilt and obliging of them to eternall punishment, in which Adam entangled himself & all his posteritie, that is; The verie disobedience of Adam, inso∣much as it is imputed to vs all, and hath therefore spred it selfe v∣pon al men though not by act, yet by guilt & imputation. As Rom. 5.12. We are all pronounced to haue sinned in Adam as in the roote, or a masse, whereout all mankinde was framed, we all be∣ing at that time in his loynes. And verse 16. and 18. By one mans fall the guilt came vpon all to condemnation. And vers. 19 By one mans disobedience all are made vniust, that is, guilty of gods anger and eternall death.
