A godlie treatise concerning the lavvfull vse of ritches (separate t.-p., 27 numb. l. at end) is a translation by Rogers from Niels Hemmingsen's Commentaria in omnes epistolas apostolorum, Leipzig, 1572.

The first part is a translation by Thomas Rogers of Caesar's "Universa propemodum doctrina de usura", 1569; the second part is a translation and adaptation of part of Niels Hemmingsen's commentary on the Epistle to James in his "Commentaria in omnes epistolas apostolorum", 1572. Cf NUC pre-1956. The second part has a separate title-page and pagination, but the register is continuous throughout the volume.
