usura

noun

  1. archaic, poetic, rare, uncountable Usury. In time past it was sors pro sorte – that is, the principal only for the principal; but now, beside that which is above the principal properly called Usura, we challenge Foenus – that is, commodity of soil and fruits of the earth, if not the ground itself.
