Dives and Pauper is a 15th-century commentary on the Ten Commandments in dialogue form. Written in Middle English, it was most likely authored by a Franciscan friar. It is structured as a dialogue between a wealthy layman (Dives) and a spiritual poor man with many similarities to a friar (Pauper). The work is an example of orthodox Catholic theology, but it engages many questions relevant to Wycliffism, an English movement condemned as heretical by church authorities.
