In the next (thirteenth) Chapter, he proceedeth to answer the question [Quomodo animae talium Infantium sine peccato actually decedentium punientur (Having before spoken of Infants dying unbaptized unavoidably) that is, How the souls of such Infants shall be punished? whether all equally or unequally? and whether only with the punishment of loss, or also of sense?] And he ⟨p. 362⟩concludeth contrary to the greater part of the Papists, that they shall have both the punishment of Loss and Sense; and (Note that) that [Necesse est peccata originalia hominum esse inaequalia, sicut decedentes in originalibus sunt propter illa inaequaliter condemnandi: Nam juxta dicta omnes condemnati pro originalibus sunt condemnandi tam poena damni quam poena sensus: sed impossibile est quod condemnentur aequaliter omnino illis poenis: ergo relinquitur quod peccata quibus illas poenas demeruerunt, inaequalia sunt dicenda.] That is, [It must needs be that the Original sins of men are unequal, as those that die in Original sins are unequally to be condemned for them: For as is said, all that are condemned for original sin are condemned both with the punishment of Loss and of Sense; But it is impossible that they should be damned altogether equally with those pains. Therefore it remaineth that the sins by which they deserved those punishments be said to be unequal].
