subsolanus_n to_o strive_v against_o poverty_n we_o be_v not_o express_o command_v further_o than_o necessity_n require_v nor_o yet_o prohibit_v so_o long_o as_o man_n get_v riches_n without_o the_o violate_v of_o justice_n the_o which_o be_v understand_v to_o be_v violate_v not_o only_o by_o fraud_n or_o force_n as_o have_v be_v say_v before_o but_o partly_o by_o not_o restore_v that_o which_o

and_o as_o none_o of_o these_o injustice_n be_v to_o be_v use_v for_o the_o relief_n of_o poverty_n so_o also_o much_o less_o for_o the_o increase_n of_o wealth_n since_o the_o superfluity_n thereof_o be_v not_o as_o you_o suppose_v a_o shunner_n of_o vice_n but_o a_o enemy_n to_o virtue_n as_o have_v be_v tell_v you_o already_o make_v man_n so_o idle_a so_o slothful_a and_o so_o lascivious_a as_o they_o become_v altogether_o effeminate_a neither_o give_v to_o the_o practice_n of_o arm_n nor_o yet_o to_o the_o study_n of_o letter_n and_o therefore_o democritus_n judge_v the_o abundance_n of_o riches_n to_o be_v foolish_a heraclitus_n judge_v it_o to_o be_v miserable_a and_o crates_n judge_v it_o to_o be_v frivolous_a and_o burdensome_a for_o which_o respect_n he_o throw_v his_o wealth_n into_o the_o sea_n though_o no_o kind_n of_o wealth_n be_v so_o burdensome_a as_o that_o which_o be_v wrongful_o get_v do_v seldom_o time_n descend_v unto_o the_o three_o generation_n &_o therefore_o the_o burden_n of_o honest_a poverty_n can_v be_v so_o heavy_a to_o bear_v by_o much_o as_o the_o burden_n of_o a_o rich_a man_n culpable_a conscience_n for_o what_o else_o do_v take_v away_o either_o
