"And if he be able to pay, he will stand off, he will scarce pay one half, and will count it as if he had found it:"
Im Kontext
5Till they receive, they kiss the hands of the lender, and in promises they humble their voice:
6But when they should repay, they will ask time, and will return tedious and murmuring words, and will complain of the time:
7And if he be able to pay, he will stand off, he will scarce pay one half, and will count it as if he had found it:
8But if not, he will defraud him of his money, and he shall get him for an enemy without cause:
9And he will pay him with reproaches and curses, and instead of honour and good turn will repay him injuries.
