Having reviewed again and again, I am very inconfident with my translation here. I feel it's incoherent somewhere.
Please find for me where is wrong.
Title : the seed of body and the seed of soul are handed down in a blended condition (i.e. as a unit)
<<< So, in the beginning when God created Adam, the two --- the slimy liquid and the heat * --- were different and separate things, but after having curdled into one human being, the both now blended in one human being were also mixed up in respect to the seeds they have (the slimy liquid's seed = the seed of body, the heat's seed = the seed of soul), and in that way (i.e. with the both blended) the preparational pattern for the procreation of human being was established ; >>>[8] Cum igitur in primordio duo diuersa atque diuisa, limus et flatus, unum hominem coegissent, confusae substantiae ambae iam in uno semina quoque sua miscuerunt atque exinde generi propagando formam tradiderunt,
(* God created the body of Adam from a slimy liquid, and made it animate by radiate ((blow, flavit)) the heat of life onto it, according to [7] right before this section.)
<<< that is to say, because of the blended condition the two (the slimy liquid and the heat), though separate in essence, can now as a unit flow out together and flow together into the furrow, the field that waits for sowing (= the genital of a woman), and create a human being from both of themselves (= the slimy liquid and the heat). >>>ut et nunc duo, licet diuersa, etiam unita pariter effluant pariterque insinuata sulco et aruo suo pariter hominem ex utraque substantia effruticent,
<<< and in the one who is born his own seed will there be again (in accordance to his breed), for it (the seed) was sown in advance to his birth for the fulfilment of every condition needed for procreation. >>>in quo rursus semen suum insit secundum genus, sicut omni condicioni genitali praestitutum est.
Here, I'm very vague with the dative phrase "omni condicioni genitali", and with the choice of the meaning of "praestituere", and with the subject of "praestitutum est" (whether the subject is "semen", or it is impersonal construction).
