A lien is a species of security, but differs from a mortgage, charge or the like in this respect, that in the case of a mortgage or charge the origin of the debt is immaterial (e.g., it may be a loan, a debt for goods sold, etc.) while a lien can only be a security on property which is or has been the subject of a transaction between the parties. … Lien arises either by operation of law or by agreement between the parties. … (Jowitt’s Dictionary of English Law, 2nd ed., vol. 2, p. 1097)
