By a lying tongue; by false witness-hearing, or by any other false or deceitful words or actions, whereby many men get riches. Is a vanity tossed to and fro; is like the chaff or smoke driven away by the wind; it is neither satisfactory nor durable, but quickly vanisheth away, as hath been frequently observed of estates ill gotten. That seek death; not designedly, but eventually, that take those courses which will bring death or destruction upon them or theirs.
