2 Corinthians9:5
Verſe 5. Not of covetouſneſſe] Non ut extortum aliquid, ſaith Piſcator, velut illiberale aliquid. Not as wrung out of you, ſqueezed out, as verjuice is out of a crab. Covetous perſons part with their peny, as with bloud out of their hearts, Citiùs aquam ex pumice, clavam ex manu Herculis extorqueas. God will ſet off all hearts from ſuch miſers in their miſery, that are ſo unreaſonably mercileſſe.
