Ecclesiastes5:10
10 He that loveth silver, shall not be satisfied with silver ; nor he that loveth abundance with increase: this is also vanity.
The greatest Treasures of Silver do not satisfie the covetous possessor of it, partly because his mind is insatiable and his desires are increased by and with gains; partly because Silver of itself cannot satisfie his Natural desires and necessities as the Fruits of the Field can do, and the miserable Wretch grudgeth to part with his Silver, though it be to purchase things needful and convenient for him
Or, that loveth it (to wit, Silver) in abundance, that desires and lays up great Treasures.
