A20736	Lectures on the XV. Psalme read in the cathedrall church of S. Paule, in London. Wherein besides many other very profitable and necessarie matters, the question of vsurie is plainely and fully decided. By George Dovvname, Doctor of Diuinitie.

the_o righteous_a shall_v never_o be_v remove_v 28._o and_o so_o certain_a be_v the_o salvation_n of_o the_o righteous_a that_o the_o book_n of_o the_o live_n 8._o be_v the_o book_n of_o the_o just_a

seem_v labour_v more_o for_o number_n than_o for_o weight_n of_o argument_n first_o shall_v the_o debtor_n say_v he_o be_v a_o able_a man_n by_o seek_v delay_n gain_v time_n after_o time_n at_o his_o pleasure_n to_o the_o loss_n hurt_n and_o trouble_v of_o his_o creditor_n without_o recompense_n second_o be_v it_o reason_n that_o a_o rich_a man_n shall_v withhold_v any_o man_n money_n against_o his_o will_n and_o make_v his_o private_a gain_n thereof_o three_o the_o father_n in_o law_n make_v delay_n for_o the_o payment_n of_o that_o portion_n which_o he_o promise_v with_o his_o daughter_n be_v to_o make_v allowance_n by_o way_n of_o interest_n to_o his_o son_n in_o law_n who_o bear_v the_o charge_n and_o burden_n belong_v to_o marriage_n four_o when_o the_o creditor_n be_v disappoint_v of_o his_o money_n at_o the_o day_n of_o payment_n be_v force_v himself_o to_o take_v up_o so_o much_o after_o ten_o in_o the_o hundred_o may_v not_o he_o require_v the_o same_o to_o be_v allow_v he_o of_o the_o debtor_n through_o who_o default_n he_o sustain_v that_o loss_n or_o hindrance_n five_o when_o the_o surety_n be_v compel_v through_o the_o debtor_n default_n to_o pay_v the_o debt_n which_o he_o undertake_v for_o he_o the_o debtor_n be_v bind_v to_o make_v he_o recompense_v of_o what_o loss_n or_o hindrance_n he_o sustain_v through_o the_o debtor_n default_n all_o this_o i_o grant_v but_o gaineful_a usury_n differ_v much_o as_o i_o have_v show_v before_o from_o recompense_a usury_n or_o interest_n for_o it_o be_v great_a reason_n that_o he_o which_o seek_v to_o be_v no_o gainer_n by_o loan_n shall_v be_v no_o loose_a neither_o ought_v any_o man_n to_o be_v enrich_v with_o another_o man_n loss_n but_o whosoever_o have_v be_v the_o effectual_a cause_n of_o the_o creditor_n loss_n or_o hindrance_n he_o ought_v if_o he_o be_v able_a to_o make_v he_o recompense_v six_o to_o these_o another_o reason_n may_v be_v add_v which_o be_v the_o only_a argument_n ground_v upon_o the_o scripture_n which_o i_o find_v in_o one_o learned_a patron_n of_o usury_n there_o be_v the_o like_a reason_n of_o cease_v from_o labour_n and_o forbear_v of_o money_n but_o he_o that_o cause_v a_o man_n to_o cease_v from_o his_o labour_n be_v to_o make_v he_o recompense_v according_a to_o the_o law_n 19_o exod._n 21._o 19_o therefore_o he_o which_o cause_v another_o man_n to_o forbear_v his_o money_n be_v to_o make_v he_o recompense_v according_a to_o the_o time_n of_o forbearance_n i_o answer_v first_o that_o there_o be_v not_o the_o like_a reason_n betwixt_o a_o man_n labour_n and_o the_o use_n of_o money_n a_o man_n labour_n be_v lettable_a and_o yield_v to_o the_o labourer_n if_o he_o work_v certain_a wage_n second_o although_o there_o be_v the_o like_a reason_n betwixt_o they_o yet_o nothing_o can_v be_v prove_v hence_o but_o the_o lawfulness_n of_o interest_n or_o recompense_a usury_n for_o the_o law_n speak_v not_o of_o allowance_n to_o be_v make_v for_o a_o man_n voluntary_a cease_v from_o his_o work_n but_o when_o he_o cease_v against_o his_o will_n have_v be_v smite_v and_o wound_v by_o another_o man_n so_o that_o he_o can_v work_v in_o this_o case_n the_o smiter_n be_v to_o make_v he_o recompense_v for_o the_o loss_n of_o his_o time_n and_o cease_v from_o his_o labour_n in_o like_a case_n allowance_n be_v not_o to_o be_v make_v for_o voluntary_a forbear_n or_o lend_v of_o money_n but_o when_o the_o creditor_n forbear_v it_o against_o his_o will_n to_o his_o loss_n and_o hindrance_n through_o the_o debtor_n default_n the_o debtor_n have_v be_v by_o his_o delay_n the_o effectual_a cause_n of_o the_o creditor_n loss_n be_v to_o make_v he_o recompense_v 7_o last_o he_o which_o have_v buy_v ware_n make_v default_n of_o payment_n be_v by_o the_o civil_a law_n to_o pay_v usury_n to_o the_o seller_n from_o who_o the_o price_n be_v detain_v against_o his_o will_n to_o his_o loss_n and_o hindrance_n answer_n i_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o if_o the_o price_n be_v equal_a the_o like_a allowance_n be_v to_o be_v make_v in_o this_o case_n as_o after_o delay_n in_o that_o which_o be_v borrow_v but_o this_o allowance_n be_v not_o gainful_a usury_n but_o recompense_a usury_n or_o interest_n there_o be_v another_o sort_n of_o impertinent_a argument_n 12._o which_o serve_v to_o prove_v the_o lawfulness_n not_o of_o usury_n but_o of_o the_o contract_n as_o first_o of_o the_o gainful_a contract_n of_o negotiation_n and_o traffic_n in_o buy_v and_o sell_v for_o some_o have_v a_o conceit_n that_o if_o any_o contract_n of_o gain_n be_v lawful_a usury_n which_o they_o like_v so_o well_o can_v be_v unlawful_a and_o to_o this_o purpose_n the_o author_n of_o the_o english_a treatise_n prove_v first_o that_o merchandise_n be_v lawful_a by_o the_o description_n of_o the_o virtuous_a godly_a and_o wise_a woman_n prou._n 31._o 18._o 24._o second_o that_o buy_v of_o rent_n and_o land_n be_v lawful_a three_o that_o the_o gain_n of_o drover_n and_o grazier_n be_v warrantable_a from_o all_o which_o as_o so_o many_o argument_n he_o will_v have_v we_o infer_v that_o therefore_o usury_n be_v lawful_a but_o unless_o he_o can_v prove_v that_o man_n may_v as_o well_o lend_v for_o gain_v as_o buy_v and_o sell_v for_o gain_v which_o i_o have_v before_o disprove_v these_o argument_n be_v to_o little_a purpose_n second_o he_o allege_v the_o lawfulness_n of_o the_o civil_a lend_n whereby_o a_o man_n dare_v expect_v the_o like_a courtesy_n again_o as_o for_o example_n when_o a_o man_n dare_v where_o he_o hope_v to_o borrow_v as_o much_o another_o time_n when_o a_o miller_n dare_v money_n to_o a_o baker_n to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v grind_v at_o his_o mill_n when_o a_o scrivener_n dare_v money_n to_o a_o gentleman_n to_o the_o end_n that_o he_o shall_v have_v his_o write_n make_v with_o he_o etc._n etc._n but_o although_o this_o civil_a lend_n with_o expectation_n of_o the_o like_a courtesy_n be_v not_o so_o commendable_a as_o the_o christian_a and_o charitable_a lend_n which_o be_v without_o respect_n of_o our_o own_o good_a or_o profit_n even_o as_o the_o invite_a of_o our_o able_a friend_n be_v not_o so_o laudable_a as_o the_o feast_n of_o the_o poor_a and_o helpless_a yet_o be_v it_o lawful_a so_o long_o as_o the_o courtesy_n expect_v be_v not_o valuable_a by_o money_n or_o such_o as_o be_v common_o and_o lawful_o buy_v and_o sell_v for_o money_n such_o be_v the_o courtesy_n of_o lend_v expect_v from_o they_o of_o who_o we_o borrow_v the_o courtesy_n of_o their_o custom_n in_o frequent_v our_o shop_n to_o buy_v our_o ware_n or_o to_o have_v their_o work_n do_v with_o we_o and_o such_o like_a howbeit_o if_o we_o covenant_n with_o the_o borrower_n for_o these_o courtesy_n they_o may_v be_v cloak_n of_o usury_n as_o if_o i_o bind_v he_o to_o lend_v who_o will_v be_v more_o like_a to_o borrow_v &_o more_o willing_a to_o pay_v usury_n for_o the_o former_a loan_n than_o to_o lend_v as_o much_o more_o which_o have_v be_v a_o practice_n of_o some_o dissemble_a usurer_n or_o if_o i_o require_v his_o custom_n with_o this_o purpose_n to_o make_v he_o pay_v the_o more_o for_o my_o work_n or_o ware_n because_o he_o be_v in_o my_o danger_n or_o behold_v to_o i_o otherwise_o if_o he_o have_v a_o pennyworth_n for_o his_o penny_n and_o be_v as_o well_o deal_v with_o as_o other_o that_o be_v no_o way_n behold_v to_o we_o even_o by_o the_o natural_a obligation_n which_o bind_v all_o man_n to_o thankfulness_n he_o be_v bind_v to_o show_v that_o courtesy_n to_o those_o who_o have_v well_o deserve_v of_o he_o rather_o than_o to_o other_o and_o these_o be_v the_o argument_n which_o be_v bring_v for_o usury_n which_o also_o i_o will_v desire_v the_o christian_a reader_n to_o compare_v with_o those_o which_o have_v be_v bring_v against_o it_o now_o we_o be_v to_o descend_v to_o their_o testimony_n which_o be_v partly_o the_o public_a allowance_n of_o law_n in_o these_o day_n and_o common_a practice_n of_o most_o rich_a man_n in_o all_o christendom_n partly_o the_o private_a judgement_n of_o diverse_a learned_a and_o reverend_a man_n of_o this_o age_n of_o the_o

great_a mischief_n the_o come_v practice_n of_o rich_a man_n do_v not_o prove_v usury_n to_o be_v lawful_a but_o themselves_o to_o be_v covetous_a and_o void_a of_o charity_n as_o for_o the_o judgement_n of_o godly_a learned_a man_n i_o answer_v that_o none_o such_o do_v allow_v that_o usury_n which_o be_v practise_v in_o the_o world_n or_o if_o any_o do_v i_o oppose_v to_o they_o the_o
