for_o i_o be_o sure_a all_o man_n will_v confess_v that_o a_o man_n may_v honest_o pay_v that_o which_o he_o owe_v and_o he_o unto_o who_o he_o ought_v it_o may_v honest_o crave_v the_o same_o pay_v

thing_n in_o pay_v their_o debt_n they_o shall_v implicative_o confess_v to_o have_v do_v and_o therefore_o be_v they_o ashamed_a to_o repay_v what_o so_o they_o can_v borrow_v for_o the_o conclusion_n aforesaid_a and_o that_o stand_v well_o with_o the_o say_n of_o jesus_n of_o sirack_n who_o say_v that_o what_o so_o the_o ungodly_a can_v borrow_v he_o account_v it_o as_o if_o he_o have_v find_v it_o whereof_o the_o reason_n be_v this_o although_o pure_a need_n and_o nescessitie_n constarin_fw-mi they_o oft_o to_o use_v this_o word_n lend_v yet_o they_o use_v he_o for_o a_o cloak_n of_o dissimulation_n as_o the_o effect_n show_v for_o this_o be_v evident_a that_o there_o be_v but_o four_o way_n of_o attaimment_n or_o get_v of_o whatsoever_o thing_n for_o it_o be_v either_o give_v we_o lend_v we_o orelse_o we_o take_v it_o perforce_o orelse_o we_o find_v it_o so_o that_o whatsoever_o be_v lend_v unto_o such_o people_n either_o it_o be_v give_v or_o lend_v or_o take_v by_o force_n orelse_o find_v give_v you_o will_v say_v it_o be_v not_o nor_o so_o mean_v by_o you_o and_o you_o shall_v find_v the_o same_o by_o he_o that_o take_v it_o at_o your_o hand_n for_o he_o will_v never_o give_v you_o thank_n therefore_o neither_o see_v you_o but_o against_o his_o heart_n borrow_v it_o be_v not_o upon_o his_o behalf_n and_o consequent_o not_o upon_o you_o howsoever_o you_o mean_v in_o depart_v therewith_o for_o except_v there_o be_v a_o borrower_n there_o can_v be_v no_o lender_n for_o they_o be_v correlative_a and_o none_o can_v be_v without_o other_o no_o more_o than_o there_o can_v be_v a_o father_n without_o a_o child_n then_o if_o the_o one_o do_v not_o borrow_v the_o other_o do_v not_o lend_v he_o borrow_v not_o for_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o with_o his_o good_a will_v he_o never_o mean_v to_o pay_v it_o again_o ergo_fw-la you_o lend_v it_o not_o he_o take_v not_o from_o you_o perforce_o for_o yourself_o deliver_v it_o so_o than_o if_o you_o neither_o give_v it_o lend_v it_o neither_o leave_v by_o force_n then_o there_o remain_v but_o a_o four_o which_o be_v that_o you_o lose_v it_o and_o he_o have_v find_v it_o according_a to_o the_o say_n of_o jesus_n of_o sirack_n for_o what_o soever_o a_o man_n find_v he_o take_v it_o from_o no_o man_n neither_o be_v he_o bind_v to_o thank_v any_o man_n therefore_o and_o that_o this_o be_v the_o manner_n of_o the_o ungodly_a the_o prophet_n david_n bear_v witness_v where_o he_o say_v the_o ungodly_a borrow_v and_o pay_v not_o again_o but_o the_o righteous_a be_v merciful_a and_o liberal_a thus_o it_o appear_v quoth_v our_o host_n that_o who_o so_o true_o pase_v his_o debt_n he_o can_v not_o therein_o be_v call_v a_o evil_a person_n or_o be_v say_v to_o have_v corrupt_v or_o dishonest_v neither_o himself_o or_o any_o other_o body_n and_o therein_o far_o excel_v this_o quality_n both_o the_o other_o ¶_o but_o now_o it_o rest_v i_o to_o prove_v quoth_v he_o that_o this_o word_n to_o pay_v a_o man_n debt_n do_v include_v both_o the_o rest_n so_o far_o forth_o as_o they_o may_v or_o can_v be_v call_v virtue_n or_o property_n of_o godliness_n which_o i_o will_v prove_v in_o this_o order_n ¶_o first_n i_o say_v that_o whatsoever_o we_o have_v here_o in_o this_o world_n we_o have_v it_o at_o the_o bountiful_a &_o merciful_a hand_n of_o our_o god_n as_o lend_v and_o which_o he_o may_v at_o his_o pleasure_n take_v from_o we_o as_o also_o we_o daily_o see_v he_o do_v then_o if_o we_o have_v nothing_o but_o that_o we_o have_v receive_v as_o saint_n paul_n say_v we_o must_v needs_o confess_v we_o be_v indebt_v unto_o he_o therefore_o how_o then_o can_v we_o pay_v unto_o he_o our_o debt_n for_o he_o receive_v no_o money_n we_o can_v feast_v he_o
