J s18. Now so it was that after the spac,
of nearly two years the war whicl
was In the land of Unculpsalm cam,
mot to an end. 80 -.s.s - -,
I9. For the men of the Nortf
and the men of the South were o.
the same blood; and both were val.
liant. And the men of the North
were more in number than the mer
iof the South. But the men of the
South multiplied themselves because
Of their Niggahs. For their Mig.
yahs went not to war. but staved at
4 home to till the soil. Moreover,
they were fighting upon their own
Ground: and much of their land was
mire and marshes, desert land and
wilderness, through which the ar
mics of Unculpsalm wandered vain
Ily, and where they stuck fast And
the men of the South cast up mounds
upon their roads, and before their
cities, and made strong their high
places with towers. And their land
was filed with strong places, and
with men of war and engines ofyar,
such as the men of the North looked
not TO see in that land. i.
20. For the men of the South
were astonished when the men of
the North marched against them; be-
cause the men of the North had SO
often compromised themselves unto
them. that they thought they were
all Phlunkees, and that the spirit Bak
Bohn had been utterly cast out OF
them. And without that spirit men
cannot fight
q. Wherefore, the men Of the
South which had Niggahs; eveu the
ITshivuiree and the Fhiretahs, seeing
that their case was desperate, forced
all the men of their country into
their armies, and took the men which
had respect unto the government OF
Uncuipsalm, according 10 the Great
Covenant, and loved the banner of
Unculpsalm, and would not fight
against it, and they cast them into
pits and into dungeons, and scourged
them, and hanged them upon trees,
after their manner And being men
| of blood, and seeing that their case
was desperate, they made it ter
ror to Iivs in their country except
unto them that professed to desire the
destruction of the nation. So all
men professed to desire it, or held
their peace.
%. But in the land Of the men
of the North no man was molested.-
And men of the South dwelt there,
and were spies and helpers unto
their brethren. And men Of the
North, men of peace, which also
were Phlunkees, helped their mas
ters the Tshivulree and the Phire-
tabs.
%. And the men OF the South
had among them great captains; men
of might and wisdom in battle
And they chose to be ruler over
them Jeph, surnamed Repudiator.
"a. jNow among the men of Un-
culpsalm when man would neither
nav the debt that he owed, nor ac-
knowledge it and ask it to be for
given him, he was called a repudia-
tor. ..-......-
| 26. And Jeph had been captain
over thousand in the armies OF
Unculpsalm when they went into
lMecsicho, and had also been one of
the great Council and he was bold
Imam. and crafty, one who knew
tneither fear nor scruple. .r.-.
26. Moreover, the men of the
South were helped nightly from
beyond the sea, even by the men OF
1.-THE kingdom ofJ0nbool, from which
their land was wrested by the fore
fathers of the men of Unctlpsalfr.,
q. Yet the Hen Of Unculpsalir
would have loved the men of thai
nation, even as a son loveth his
mother which bore him. But The
mobiles and the rich men of Jonboo
scorned the men of Unculpsalm, ant
would none of their affection, ant
made light of their honor. ssgo
%. For the men of Unculpsaln
had forgiven the men of Jonboo
their oppression and their scorn; AM
had shown their Prince great honor
hut the men who governed that natlol
had not forgiven the men of Unculp
salm their victory. And the pros
tperity and the glory of that land wa
an offence unto them. And certai
of their scribes, which also. wer
tPhlunkees, wrote scornfully agains
the land of Unculpsalm, and Dor
false witness against it from genera
. ton to generation. and got thereb.
gold and honor in the land of Jon
bool. =
Ia %. Wherefore, when the Tshiy
ulree and the Phiretahs lifted up th
standard OF revolt the rulers {
Jonbool said one to another,
80. .Lo, the time for which "
have waited without hope drawet
nigh; and the land Of Unculpsall
may be divided; and the nation d,
