He does not complain against any for doing this, he lays his usual stake, if he loses it goes into the box of the keeper, but if he wins he gets immediately a double quantity of silver in his pocket thrown in, so that he lives to have more before - so they think this is nothing but what is fair and reasonable. Such is the impression of blind luck, but they do not all know the result of gambling.
Many of them, when they win a large sum of money, taking what he gains back puts his house and breaks it up, instead of using it for some good purposes. He knows he makes his fortune irregular, much trouble. All he thinks now is to enjoy himself with it, be it to go to some hotels and spend his money there, and not only that, but gets all sorts of diseases at the same time.
Some time, or he will go with a party to an eating house and there spend his money for drinking, and when he gets himself drunk he will go and make disturbances. If he doesn't go to either these houses he will stick himself in some other gambling places till he loses all his fortune again. If he loses he will first pawn or sell all his clothing, then his wife's, and then his children's, till he reduces them all to extreme poverty. After this he will beg and borrow money from his friends and relatives, and when he cannot get any money from them he will go to embezzle, steal, and commit all serious crimes, people will be educated to know this, and are very much against it. Some shopkeepers like to have gambling houses, because gambling brings business to them.
