Leigh:
And were by nature the Children of wrath, even as others] To be by nature the children of wrath signifies these things. 1. Wrath is our proper due, as we are born to it. 2. It belongs to us a soon as we are ever we have a living soul, damnati priusquam nati Aug. 3. We are irrecoverably the Children of wrath, Adam might have helped it. 4. It is universally so, as we say a man is by nature mortal, because all are so.
