that_o i_o teach_v you_o to_o borrow_v upon_o usury_n for_o i_o think_v that_o the_o most_o in_o this_o city_n which_o borrow_v upon_o usury_n shall_v not_o borrow_v as_o they_o do_v because_o they_o

borrower_n in_o this_o city_n which_o feed_v usurer_n as_o the_o bellows_n kindle_v the_o fire_n for_o they_o have_v no_o need_n to_o borrow_v but_o because_o they_o will_v be_v rich_a and_o rich_a and_o rich_a of_o all_o therefore_o they_o will_v employ_v all_o the_o money_n which_o they_o can_v borrow_v think_v to_o get_v more_o by_o the_o use_n of_o it_o than_o the_o usury_n of_o it_o do_v come_v too_o this_o make_v they_o sell_v their_o ware_n so_o dear_a because_o they_o must_v not_o only_o gain_v the_o price_n but_o the_o interest_n beside_o and_o more_o than_o the_o interest_n too_o or_o else_o they_o gain_v nothing_o these_o borrower_n be_v in_o another_o predicament_n than_o those_o which_o borrow_v for_o necessity_n and_o therefore_o if_o they_o be_v not_o old_a enough_o to_o
