southmost bank ol the river that is called
Chickahominy, tho heathen looked upon
him and saw what manner cf man he was,
1 and they laughed one to another ; and, in
j their evil conceits, they sent forth an army
of bHU, that kicked tho hindermost parts
of the kiue'i fiL'htinz angler, and drove
hit rear guard even into the trenches that
lie before the gates of the temple of tho
Dragon.
XXXI. No-.v Abraham, the king, was
tore oppressed, because the heathen had
kicked the hindortnost parts of his mighty
lighting angler i and ho smoto tho earth
until It quaked. And thou he called unto
him his faithful VW-loy, wlio called ,

him : Tho heathen have iicnched my i

was bidden by the kins ; and, lo, ho blew
