O thou horrible hunger of gold and sil∣uer, what is it not that thou doost compell, the harts of men to buy and to sell?
VVho hath beene tryed thereby, and found perfect? Let him be an example of glory. VVho might offend, and hath not offended? or doe euill thereby, and hath not done it?
Many are destroyed by reason of gold; and diuers haue founde theyr destruction before them.
