It is added, that if a man sought treasure in his own ground,1 & used thereunto magic & arts forbidden, the thing found ought to be forfeited to the common treasury. For he which by evil means hath sought a thing, seemeth unworthy to be possessor thereof. ⟨image 289⟩But to return to Augustine, that which I before said, I affirm that it is not properly rapt,2 if a man hold back a thing that he hath found. Which thing Origene plainly declareth in his .4. Homely upon Leviticus: Some saith he, will not restore that which they have found. For they say that God hath given it them. But whatsoever they say it is a crime like unto rapt. He saith not that it is rapt, but a certain thing like unto it. Although we have out of the civil law made a difference between theft and rapt, yet may rapt be called theft, but yet so that there be added violence. In the digestes de furtis, in the law Si vendidero, it is thus written: A rapter every way committeth theft, and is an open thief. But omitting these things let us return to that kind of rapt whereof we now entreat.
