CLXXI. Then answered the Judge most dread; God doth such doom forbid, T•at men should die eternally for what they never did. But what you call old Adam's Fall, and only his Trespass, You call amiss to call it his: both his and yours it was.
CLXXII. He was designed of all mankind to be a public Head, A common Root whence all should shoot, and stood in all their stead: He stood and fell, did ill or well, not for himself alone, But for you all, who now his Fall and trespass would disown.

CLXXIII. If he had stood, then all his brood had been established In Gods true love, never to move, nor once awry to tread: Then all his Race my Fathers Grace should have enjoyed for ever, And wicked Sprites by subtle sleights could them have harmed never.
