Modern translation please! =D
Adam and Eve had many advantages, but the principla one was that they escaped teething.
All say, "How hard it is that we have to die" - a strange complaint to come from the mouths of people who have to live.

1 The sentence is making a joke about Adam and Eve not having been babies. Teething is the painful process when a baby's teeth are first formed. Since Adam and Eve were created as adults, they never went through this process.
2 People should appreciate that they have life instead of complaining that they will one day die.
