At least, therefore, some plain intimation would have been given by Moses in the written Law, that this all-important commentary was 'committed to Joshua,’ to be by him transmitted to posterity
81.
It is morally inconceivable, if it had been the intention of Heaven to convey to mankind, speaking so great a variety of languages, into which the Bible must be translated,—the threatening of torment which should be absolutely endless, that such a threatening would be, in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred, expressed in terms which literally signify something in all languages wholly inconsistent with such a destiny: and that the announcement of the real danger awaiting the world should be dubiously ascertainable only from one passage in a gospel (Matthew), which is probably itself a translation; from another (in a second gospel—Mark), which has reached posterity in a very corrupted form; and lastly from two verses in the latest of the prophecies, where it is difficult to distinguish metaphors from simple terms, and where the terms employed are themselves undoubtedly employed by the Jewish Rabbi, as well as in the Bible, to denote a limited period of duration in punishment
82.
’ It commences with the statement that Adam was created immortal, as God Himself—with respect to his soul, but as to his body, susceptible of death; (2) that he was placed in Paradise, on trial forever lasting life, under the menace of death; while notwithstanding, irrespectively of the tree of Life, the chief part of his nature was already incapable of extinction; that the privilege held out to him really was, therefore, to escape death of the body alone in the literal sense of the threatening, and death of the soul only in a metaphorical signification of the term; (3) that, failing in his probation, he brought upon himself death of the body, and eternal misery of the soul; and upon his posterity, according to one account, simply temporal death (which system of interpretation does not render any very lucid explanation of the natural state and legal prospects of the souls of the posterity);—according to another account, more ancient and orthodox, and held by all the great historical churches, both temporal death and eternal misery of the soul; (4) that, therefore, all mankind are born, before they have sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, justly liable to everlasting misery, whether through imputation, or through the possession of a nature necessarily corrupt in all its developments; (5) that Christ came into the world to bear the curse of the law, which was death a curse which signified eternal misery in the instance of mankind, but was taken to mean 'death of the cross’ only, in the person of the Savior; (6) that in consequence of this literal death of Christ, death in all the figurative senses has been removed from the believer, and his physical death shall be abolished by resurrection; (7) that although the Mosaic law 'entered that the offence might abound,’ it made no mention of eternal misery, while nevertheless Christ's death delivers us from that legal curse of which no mention is made; (8) that while the penalty for despising the law of Moses was literal 'death under two or three witnesses,’ the penalty of despising a system of mercy shall be infinitely more tremendous than that, being to suffer misery throughout endless duration; the punishment for rejecting the divine mercy being, therefore, infinitely more terrible than that for rejecting the divine justice; and, lastly, (9) that although the greater part of mankind have been altogether deprived, under divine providence, of the means of grace, they have been placed on the same awful probation, unknown to themselves, for an eternal existence in happiness or in misery; the redemption by Christ having added this incalculable burden to the original curse on Adam, that their bodies shall be raised from the dead to die a second death, which signifies living forever in torment
83.
Again, the elder Protestants, following the medieval theology, taught that the triple death, which descended on Adam for his sin, descended upon all his posterity, even on infants
84.
But our modern divines have determined that this triple death did not descend to the posterity, and it is now held that infants are not born in a state of damnation, but of salvation
85.
If it is maintained that death, as it descended upon infants born of Adam, does not signify eternal misery, we maintain, as the result of this admission, either that it did not signify eternal misery in the case of Adam himself, or, if it did, that it signifies the same thing in the case of his infant posterity, which you deny;—and thus the opponent’s mouth is shut with a stopper of his own invention, unless it is decided that assertion shall stand in the place of argument, when of course the discussion is ended
86.
’ Whence we conclude that the sin of Adam could not have procured for his posterity the consequences usually alleged

A fig for Don Belianis, and for all who say he equalled him in any respect, for, my oath upon it, they are deceiving themselves! I say, too, that when a painter desires to become famous in his art he endeavours to copy the originals of the rarest painters that he knows; and the same rule holds good for all the most important crafts and callings that serve to adorn a state; thus must he who would be esteemed prudent and patient imitate Ulysses, in whose person and labours Homer presents to us a lively picture of prudence and patience; as Virgil, too, shows us in the person of AEneas the virtue of a pious son and the sagacity of a brave and skilful captain; not representing or describing them as they were, but as they ought to be, so as to leave the example of their virtues to posterity

To all this Don Quixote said in reply, "Children, senor, are portions of their parents' bowels, and therefore, be they good or bad, are to be loved as we love the souls that give us life; it is for the parents to guide them from infancy in the ways of virtue, propriety, and worthy Christian conduct, so that when grown up they may be the staff of their parents' old age, and the glory of their posterity; and to force them to study this or that science I do not think wise, though it may be no harm to persuade them; and when there is no need to study for the sake of pane lucrando, and it is the student's good fortune that heaven has given him parents who provide him with it, it would be my advice to them to let him pursue whatever science they may see him most inclined to; and though that of poetry is less useful than pleasurable, it is not one of those that bring discredit upon the possessor
