we_o shall_v give_v of_o our_o good_n free_o to_o they_o that_o be_v strong_a and_o able_a to_o labour_n labourer_n so_o if_o necessity_n urge_v they_o they_o desire_v to_o borowe_n any_o thing_n of_o

for_o this_o kind_n of_o man_n and_o fraud_n and_o false_a deal_n in_o their_o workmanship_n and_o labour_n workman_n many_o artificer_n &_o workman_n whatsoever_o they_o gain_v the_o whole_a week_n this_o on_o the_o holy_a day_n they_o spend_v in_o drink_v have_v no_o regard_n of_o their_o silly_a wyve_n or_o of_o their_o poor_a child_n whereby_o it_o fall_v out_o that_o artificer_n and_o

here_o i_o judge_v the_o magistrate_n to_o offend_v most_o grievous_o which_o do_v not_o restrain_v this_o lightness_n with_o law_n and_o punishment_n objection_n here_o perhaps_o will_v rise_v up_o

of_o the_o ancient_a athenian_n but_o what_o i_o pray_v you_o do_v these_o overseer_n there_o be_v perhaps_o some_o among_o they_o which_o that_o they_o may_v receive_v part_n of_o the_o gain_n or_o

they_o will_v right_o execute_v the_o office_n of_o overseer_n have_v little_a regard_n of_o the_o health_n of_o the_o body_n that_o be_v of_o the_o common_a weal_n it_o be_v the_o duty_n therefore_o of_o wise_a governoures_n that_o they_o bring_v into_o order_n both_o the_o artificer_n themselves_o and_o also_o their_o overseer_n or_o assistant_n that_o which_o i_o have_v say_v of_o shoemaker_n

man_n most_o unjust_a usury_n be_v use_v and_o such_o usury_n true_o as_o the_o turk_n and_o other_o profane_a heathen_a will_v without_o doubt_n abhor_v some_o man_n peradventure_o borow_v a_o

it_o behove_v the_o godly_a magistrate_n to_o correct_v this_o unjustice_n and_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o godly_a pastor_n to_o provoke_v the_o husbandman_n to_o do_v pleasure_n and_o good_a turn_v one_o to_o another_o without_o all_o usury_n in_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o to_o paint_v out_o that_o curse_a usury_n in_o it_o colour_n that_o they_o may_v learn_v to_o eschew_v it_o as_o
