A36116	A Discourse upon usury, or, Lending money for increase (occasioned by Mr. David Jones's late farewel sermon) proving by undeniable arguments the lawfulness thereof and answering the plausible objections from Scripture, councils, and fathers against it / published at the request of several judicious and sober Christians for the information and satisfaction of all such as have or may be concerned in the matter of so general and weighty importance.		1692 (1692)	Wing D1629; ESTC R14405	16,114	42

usury_n only_o forbid_v take_v more_o than_o so_o much_o in_o the_o hundred_o therefore_o there_o be_v no_o plead_v the_o lawfulness_n of_o usury_n from_o the_o law_n answ_n which_o i_o take_v to_o be_v a_o very_a weak_a argument_n and_o that_o it_o have_v little_a force_n in_o it_o the_o judge_n in_o law_n and_o equity_n i_o suppose_v be_v best_a able_a to_o determine_v what_o the_o law_n allow_v as_o to_o this_o matter_n when_o so_o many_o judgement_n be_v give_v every_o term_n as_o well_o in_o equity_n as_o in_o law_n that_o the_o plaintiff_n shall_v not_o only_o have_v their_o money_n but_o interest_n also_o which_o if_o the_o law_n do_v not_o allow_v and_o approve_v as_o just_a the_o judge_n will_v not_o thus_o determine_v put_v case_n there_o be_v a_o law_n that_o no_o landlord_n shall_v take_v above_o so_o much_o rend_v for_o house_n in_o such_o a_o place_n or_o of_o such_o or_o such_o dimension_n will_v it_o hence_o follow_v the_o law_n do_v not_o allow_v or_o approve_v of_o take_v any_o rent_n at_o all_o i_o doubt_v this_o will_v be_v but_o a_o weak_a inference_n and_o the_o other_o be_v no_o better_o now_o suppose_v the_o take_n of_o increase_n for_o lend_v money_n be_v lawful_a in_o its_o own_o nature_n to_o christian_n which_o i_o hope_v have_v be_v sufficient_o prove_v the_o next_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v be_v whether_o it_o be_v convenient_a that_o be_v whether_o the_o allowance_n of_o a_o moderate_a increase_n be_v good_a for_o the_o nation_n in_o general_n or_o not_o or_o whether_o it_o will_v be_v better_o for_o the_o nation_n that_o no_o such_o increase_n be_v allow_v to_o be_v give_v or_o take_v i_o have_v hint_v something_o already_o of_o the_o benefit_n to_o the_o commonwealth_n that_o come_v by_o allowance_n of_o interest_n in_o make_v good_n cheap_a i_o shall_v now_o in_o a_o few_o particular_n show_v some_o further_a advantage_n thereof_o to_o the_o kingdom_n which_o be_v never_o like_a to_o be_v obtain_v by_o a_o prohibition_n of_o all_o interest_n as_o first_o be_v it_o not_o for_o the_o allowance_n of_o a_o moderate_a increase_n for_o lend_v money_n thousand_o that_o want_n will_v never_o be_v accommodate_v which_o now_o be_v second_o though_o most_o that_o lend_v shall_v do_v it_o free_o yet_o they_o that_o borrow_v of_o they_o will_v in_o this_o way_n be_v liable_a to_o several_a inconvenience_n which_o may_v be_v as_o prejudicial_a to_o they_o if_o not_o more_o than_o pay_v interest_n as_o thus_o suppose_v a_o man_n want_v a_o sum_n of_o money_n his_o friend_n tell_v he_o he_o will_v lend_v he_o free_o for_o such_o a_o time_n perhaps_o 3_o or_o 6_o month_n but_o if_o he_o do_v not_o repay_v it_o again_o by_o that_o time_n he_o shall_v be_v much_o injure_v for_o the_o want_n of_o it_o the_o borrower_n promise_v to_o repay_v it_o according_o but_o so_o it_o happen_v when_o the_o time_n come_v he_o can_v do_v it_o this_o occasion_n a_o quarrel_n it_o may_v be_v a_o suit_n between_o the_o lender_n and_o he_o the_o lender_n say_v he_o be_v damnify_v and_o aught_o to_o have_v damage-money_n give_v he_o for_o i_o find_v some_o anti-usurer_n themselves_o do_v allow_v that_o damage-money_n ought_v to_o be_v give_v the_o lender_n in_o such_o case_n now_o who_o shall_v be_v judge_n of_o the_o quantity_n of_o damage-money_n and_o whether_o the_o damage-money_n and_o charge_n about_o it_o in_o many_o case_n if_o not_o in_o most_o may_v not_o exceed_v a_o moderate_a interest_n for_o the_o money_n during_o the_o whole_a time_n it_o be_v lend_v especial_o consider_v that_o the_o controversy_n in_o adjust_v the_o proportion_n of_o damage-money_n may_v also_o itself_o occasion_v a_o lawsuit_n though_o the_o principal_n shall_v not_o three_o this_o be_v another_o inconveniency_n people_n that_o lend_v free_o for_o the_o most_o part_n will_v not_o lend_v their_o money_n for_o so_o long_a a_o time_n as_o the_o generality_n of_o borrower_n need_v it_o and_o the_o call_v in_o of_o money_n exact_o at_o the_o time_n of_o payment_n may_v prove_v to_o their_o great_a prejudice_n in_o some_o circumstance_n than_o pay_v interest_n for_o all_o the_o time_n but_o now_o when_o money_n be_v lend_v upon_o moderate_a increase_n the_o interest-money_n go_v on_o though_o the_o day_n of_o payment_n be_v past_a this_o be_v a_o great_a motive_n to_o the_o lender_n to_o continue_v the_o money_n as_o the_o borrower_n occasion_n require_v four_o by_o borrow_v free_o i_o lay_v a_o needless_a obligation_n upon_o myself_o to_o lend_v as_o much_o money_n to_o the_o lender_n or_o to_o be_v surety_n for_o he_o another_o time_n either_o of_o which_o in_o some_o circumstance_n which_o he_o or_o i_o may_v be_v then_o in_o may_v be_v very_o ensnare_a and_o dangerous_a to_o i_o again_o how_o many_o child_n be_v send_v up_o out_o of_o the_o country_n every_o day_n to_o be_v apprentice_n in_o city_n and_o town_n and_o the_o parent_n and_o friend_n of_o most_o of_o they_o it_o may_v be_v with_o difficulty_n find_v money_n to_o put_v they_o out_o to_o apprentice_n but_o can_v give_v they_o no_o stock_n to_o set_v up_o their_o trade_n yet_o many_o of_o these_o have_v be_v observe_v to_o be_v diligent_a and_o careful_a during_o their_o apprenticeship_n have_v be_v encourage_v to_o set_v up_o when_o out_o of_o their_o time_n and_o monies_n offer_v they_o upon_o pay_v moderate_a interest_n to_o enable_v they_o so_o to_o do_v and_o this_o have_v be_v the_o raise_n of_o many_o person_n i_o may_v say_v multitude_n which_o otherwise_o must_v have_v live_v journeyman_n or_o servant_n again_o how_o many_o gentleman_n be_v there_o who_o have_v estate_n in_o land_n and_o but_o little_a money_n that_o have_v daughter_n to_o dispose_v in_o marriage_n who_o advancement_n be_v successful_o promote_v by_o borrow_a money_n at_o interest_n upon_o their_o father_n estate_n which_o otherwise_o can_v not_o be_v effect_v again_o what_o more_o promote_v the_o trade_n and_o merchandise_n of_o the_o nation_n than_o the_o frequent_a lend_v and_o borrow_v of_o money_n for_o money_n be_v as_o requisite_a to_o be_v pass_v too_o and_o fro_o for_o the_o maintain_n of_o trade_n as_o the_o circulation_n of_o the_o blood_n and_o spirit_n be_v for_o the_o preserve_n of_o health_n in_o the_o body_n as_o all_o that_o have_v judgement_n and_o experience_n in_o those_o affair_n know_v very_o well_o now_o what_o either_o equal_a or_o probable_a way_n be_v there_o to_o furnish_v such_o sum_n as_o the_o case_n of_o great_a dealer_n require_v without_o pay_v interest_n for_o it_o and_o therefore_o by_o the_o way_n i_o see_v not_o but_o that_o the_o trade_n or_o employment_n of_o bank_v itself_o be_v very_o convenient_a if_o not_o necessary_a for_o the_o present_a accommodation_n of_o merchant_n and_o other_o considerable_a trader_n upon_o several_a important_a occasion_n and_o therefore_o i_o think_v that_o upbraid_v reflection_n which_o mr._n jones_n have_v quote_v from_o bishop_n sanderson_n namely_o that_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v bear_v for_o nothing_o else_o but_o to_o tell_v out_o money_n and_o to_o take_v in_o paper_n be_v but_o weak_o ground_v for_o those_o be_v but_o the_o instrumental_a and_o subservient_fw-fr part_n of_o their_o main_a business_n which_o be_v or_o may_v be_v the_o convenient_a help_a and_o supply_v of_o other_o man_n affair_n and_o get_v reasonable_a advantage_n to_o themselves_o and_o if_o this_o be_v a_o necessary_a and_o useful_a call_v to_o a_o trade_n nation_n why_o be_v it_o not_o as_o lawful_a to_o be_v tell_v money_n for_o that_o purpose_n as_o to_o be_v buy_v sell_v and_o turn_v over_o good_n for_o as_o long_o a_o time_n it_o be_v true_a christ_n drive_v the_o exchanger_n out_o of_o the_o temple_n so_o he_o do_v the_o seller_n of_o dove_n but_o he_o condemn_v neither_o of_o the_o calling_n as_o unlawful_a in_o themselves_o but_o because_o of_o the_o unsuitableness_n of_o the_o place_n for_o it_o seem_v there_o be_v banker_n of_o exchanger_n in_o christ_n time_n which_o he_o himself_o allude_v to_o when_o he_o censure_v the_o slothful_a servant_n for_o not_o put_v his_o talon_n to_o such_o that_o so_o christ_n may_v have_v have_v his_o own_o again_o with_o usury_n what_o need_v i_o say_v more_o it_o be_v increase_n for_o money_n that_o encourage_v to_o lend_v for_o supply_v the_o present_a necessity_n of_o the_o government_n and_o will_v the_o better_o enable_v to_o furnish_v money_n for_o the_o further_a supply_n of_o it_o when_o they_o shall_v be_v call_v for_o now_o let_v any_o man_n prove_v if_o he_o can_v that_o so_o many_o good_a effect_n will_v proceed_v from_o a_o total_a prohibition_n of_o all_o increase_n for_o lend_v and_o whether_o any_o suppose_v prejudice_n
