Or if he doth but join with others in deceit, that com• in here: As if there be any men, and the way they take 1he knows it is to cozen others, yet to get gain he will be content to join with them to partake a part of their gain: these things, and perhaps your own consciences would tell you of abundant more that you know of, of the mysteries of iniquity that there is in trading: As we read of ⟨p. 299⟩those in the Revelation, that were under the power of Antichrist, they might not buy nor sell, except they had the Mark of the Beast upon them. And the truth is, among 2a great part, if not most of our Buyers and Sellers there is the Mark of the Beast upon them, deceitfulness and falseness among them, and because this is thought to be so light a matter, therefore the Scripture lays the more weight upon it. And so much as the time will give me leave, I shall labour to lay some weight upon this, Of deceitfulness in ways of Trading.
