No, no, this is not lawful. It is not lawful so to set out thy shop. It is Usury, it is forbidden. But he that taketh the shop shall be a gainer: who shall be the loser then? they that buy the wares must needs buy at the dearer price. We may not allow one ill thing by the allowance of another. He should rather say, Usury taken upon wares, is not lawful, therefore Usury for bare money is less lawful. Hierome upon Ezekiel saith: Putant quidam ⟨p. 134⟩Usuram tantum esse in pecunia, quod praevidens 1Scriptura divina, omni rei aufert superabundantiam, ut plus non accipias, quam dedisti. Some think there is no Usury, but in money. This did the holy Scripture foresee, and therefore taketh away the increase or gains in any manner of thing: and requireth that thou receive no more, than thou diddest deliver.
No, no, this is not lawfull. It is not lawfull so to sette out thy shoppe. It is Vsurie, it is forbidden. But he that taketh the shoppe shall be a gainer: who shall be the loser then? they that buie the wares must néedes buie at the dearer price. Wée maie not allowe one ill thing by the allowance of another. He should rather saie, Vsurie taken vppon wares, is not lawfull, therefore Vsurie for bare money is lesse lawfull. Hierome vpon Ezechiel saith: Putant quidam ⟨p. 134⟩Vsuram tantum esse in pecunia, quod praevidens 1Scriptura divina, omni rei aufert superabundantiam, ut plus non accipias, quam dedisti. Some thinke there is no Vsurie, but in money. This did the holie Scripture foresee, and therefore taketh awaie the encrease or gaines in anie manner of thing: and requireth that thou receiue no more, than thou diddest deliuer.
