If a man be not bound, say you, to answer it, (as M. Jewell saith) I pray you in what case shall the poor Orphan, Mad man, or sick Merchant be in, if their stock be gone? It had been better for them, to have had their stock lying still in their hands, and to have lived of it, then when it is gone to starve for hunger.

If a man bee not bound, say you, to answer it, (as M. Iewell saith) I pray you in what case shall the poore Orphane, Mad man, or sicke Merchant be in, if their stocke bee gone?

These are your own words M. S. Jewell ⟨p. 72⟩makes no such Query; therefore Jewell is of none of yours; whom notwithstanding you put in your Catalogue, by such a trick of falsification as I never read.

These are your owne words M. S. Iewell ⟨p. 72⟩makes no such Quere; therefore Iewell is of none of yours; whom notwithstanding you put in your Catalogue, by such a trick of falsification as I never read.

But what shall become of the Orphans, &c. say you if their stock be gone? And what shall become of those, say J, that have no stock at all? whom notwithstanding GOD graciously provides for, though they use no usurious, or injurious ways of getting. Who are we that we should exempt Orphans or any from being subject to GODS providence, and ordering? Let this be the pestilent property of Usurers, to sow, as Saint Chrysostom said, without land, plough, or rain; upon the matter not to trust GODS providence: See Fent. pag. 95. And further about Orphans; See before pag. 48. &c.
