was an upright man and modest, yea. coss',o
without and not evil in his heart, albeit he swoY>
by Cotton to keep the law. This man was &C.
cused unto Daniel, that he could not do a dIsa.
greeable duty with alacrity. So he was had
before the King in his palace, to show cause
for his slackness.
%. And while he was absent, a certain sub.
Altern of his, a BuinbalIiff. called Patrick, st,nC
in his place, and was his Deputy Satrap. The
same was a Paddy.te from an Islan nd where, il
is said, there be 10 toads, (belIke il is as it Is &c
said, because they come away thence, anC
squat in other lands to do mischief thereln.)

and his hog reeves and his field drivers. anC
swOre after his fashion, by the shout of ST. Path
erck, that they would take them an uutcaet ant
sell him into bondage And the thing pleased
The fellows for like consorleth with like.
%. So they went and laid hands on one Sha
drach, a servant in an inn. And they took hin
away from his irving pans, and his sklllers, AM
his ovens, and his gridlrons and his splits, where
with he had made ready a feast for this uDgod
" crew.
%. And they had him into court in his shirt
sleeves, with his serving apron on, and his nap
kin about his neck, and the SAVIOR of their break
fast in his garments. And he was there III
trial for his life and liberty before q single scribe
aud such was the decree.
q. Then arose George. one of tho scribei
and sat down. in the seat OF the Scotner. an
made all things ready tnr to deliver up Shadrac
unto the tormentors. Now the decree went, tba
if the scribes sent the Butcast into bondage, The
should receive ten talents of silver, but If INT
free iOm, only FIVE talents. For Daniel, Of a
men, knew that IL gift preverteth Judgment.
% Then SAID the Bum bailiff, making a gret
swell in the court, and looking brave and bIG
will you not bny this slave of me? But 10 on
offered to buy the man.
%. Then there arose one Seth, a Centurion
the servant of the kitnappers, a man Of inca
stature, having a very little hat in his hand, an
demanded that Shodrach should he delivered
unto his tormentors, and that snn,marily.
81 Then Shadrach cried unto the LORD, SAL
ing, Oh, LORD COP. Hho vert with Jonah IN h
extremities, aud didst deliver thy prophet out
the lions den, and Shadrach, my father, out
the furnace of fire, deliver me also out of Il
hands OF this Bum bailiff.
81 Then the LORD COP answered his praye
aud said. Fear not, Shadrach: Lo, ] am wi
thee, unto the end of the World.

SO. Yea, the Bum bailIff even added yet abo
all, that he shrunk down behind the door and b
came as a dend dog for all that he dld to I

"a. But the Angel of the Lord took Shadra'
in the hollow of his hand. and carried HIM out
