So for someone to satisfy, and for satisfaction to be imputed to someone, are surely far diverse. And yet when the theologians teach that we have satisfied in Christ, they mean nothing else than that Christ's satisfaction is imputed to us. Or that Christ exhibited that satisfaction which, because of the union which we have with him as our spiritual and mystical head, is imputed to us, so that before God we are held as if we ourselves had satisfied through ourselves.

Latin

Sic satisfacere aliquem, & alicui satisfactionem imputari, sunt sane longe diversa, & tamen cum docent Theologi nos in Christo satisfecisse, non aliud sibi volunt, quam Christi satisfactionem nobis imputari, sive Christum eam satisfactionem exhibuisse, quae propter unionem, quam cum eo habemus tanquam capite nostro spirituali & mystico, nobis imputetur, ita ut apud Deum habeamur, quasi ipsi per nos satisfecissemus.
