The vile person Base and worthless men; shall be no more called liberal Shall no longer be reputed honourable, because of their high and honourable places, but wickedness shall be discovered wherever it is, and virtue manifested and rewarded. Nor the churl said to be bountiful The sordid and covetous man; but under this one vice all vices are understood, as under the opposite virtue of bountifulness all virtues are comprehended. For the vile person will speak villany Men shall no longer be miscalled; for every one will discover what he is by his words and actions. And will work iniquity He will, from time to time, be devising wickedness, that he may execute it when he hath opportunity. To practise hypocrisy To do bad things, though with a pretence of religion and justice. To utter error To pass unjust sentences, directly contrary to the command of God. To cause the drink, &c. Whereby they take away the bread and drink of the poor.
