Thomas Boston, Human nature in its fourfold state, of primitive integrity, subsisting in the parents of Mankind in paradise. Entire depravation, subsisting in the unregenerate. Begun recovery, subsisting in the regenerate. And consummate happiness or misery, subsisting in all mankind in the future state. In several practical discourses, ed. Michael Boston (1784; United States: The Booksellers, 1787), p. 89.
