15    V, 19  |          in another place: "What riches will you offer to this man?

22   VI, 1   |         with garments, can spend riches upon their greedy appetite,
23   VI, 4   |           or loaded himself with riches, either to enter upon or
24   VI, 4   |           being chained by their riches as by fetters, he may drive
25   VI, 5   |         to assign their value to riches.~It is virtue to give that
26   VI, 6   |       acquisition or increase of riches, honour, glory, and power,
