The old World was under the Law and Covenant of Works, and the Curse thereof, in the first Adam: it was his first Transgression that brought all the World under the Curse of the Law, or breach of the first Covenant; and not the Law as given by Moses, tho that Law, 'tis true, pronounceth that Curse afresh on those that continued not in all things contained therein.

For by one Man's Offence Death reigned by one,1 &c. By one Man Sin entered into the World, and Death by Sin—Therefore as by the Offence of one Judgment came upon all Men to Condemnation, &c. Thus we were all under the Law ⟨p. 134⟩of the first Covenant, and as the Law is written in our Hearts; but we were not all under that Ministration of the Law given by Moses.
