Art thou poor? and sufferest scarcity in this world? Read the Scriptures, they will teach thee. 1Say with Job. Naked came I out of my mothers womb, and naked shall I return again. Learn of Solomon:2 Better is little with righteousness, than great revenues without equity. ⟨p. 173⟩And again: 3Better is the poor that walketh in his uprightness, than he that perverteth his ways, though he be rich. S. Paul saith: 4Godliness is great gain, if a man be content with that he hath: for we brought nothing into the world, and it is certain, that we carry nothing out. And again, Let him that is poor, labour, and work with his hands, the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.
