Augustine of Hippo, on Luke 16:19

“There was a certain rich man, who was clothed in purple and fine linen; and feasted sumptuously every day.”

“(Serm. 367.) For the covetousness of the rich is insatiable, it neither fears God nor regards man, spares not a father, keeps not its fealty to a friend, oppresses the widow, attacks the property of a ward.”
