sed, credo, deorum providentia [effectum] et venditori et emptori quem uterque merebatur exitum attribuit: avaro enim [et] fame consumpto manubiis sordium suarum frui non licuit, aequi animi vir ad salutarem impensam faciendam, care quidem verum necessarie comparato cibo, vixit.
But divine providence, I think, gave both seller and buyer the outcome they deserved. The money-grubber perished of starvation and so could not enjoy the spoils of his avarice; whereas he who resigned himself to a salutary expense lived by the food he had procured, at a high price to be sure, but of necessity.
