19:79
Redi in Adam vel priorem, si in novissimum non potes; semel gustavit ille de arbore, semel concupiit, semel pudenda protexit, semel deo erubuit, semel ruborem suum abscondit, semel de paradiso sanctitatis exulavit, semel exinde nupsit. Si in illo fuisti, habes tuam formam, si in Christum transisti, melior esse debebis. Exhibe te tertium Adam et hunc digamum et tunc poteris esse, quod inter duos non potes.

Return to the earlier Adam, if you cannot to the last; once did he taste of the tree, once did he lust, once did he cover his shameful parts, once did he blush before God, once did he hide his blush, once was he exiled from the paradise of holiness, once thereafter did he marry. If you were in him, you have your pattern; if you have passed over into Christ, you ought to be better. Show yourself a third Adam, and him a bigamist, and then you will be able to be that which between the two you cannot be. (Scanned by Roger Pearse, Ipswich, 2003.)
你若不能歸向那末後的亞當，就歸向那起初的亞當吧;他只嘗過一次那樹上的果子，只貪戀過一次，只遮蓋過一次自己的羞處，只在神面前臉紅過一次，只藏過一次自己的羞紅，只被逐出聖潔的樂園一次，此後只結過一次婚。你若曾在他裡面，你便有了你的樣式;你若已進入基督，你就當更美好。你去顯出自己是第三個亞當，並且是一個重婚的亞當吧，那時你才能成為那介於二者之間所不能成為的。（羅傑·皮爾斯掃描，伊普斯威奇，2003年。）
