Now it came to pass for time
before the Kopur- -hedds set up Sc
meer for Governor of the province
of Gotham, the war in the land Of
Uuculpslam had languished and it
seemed as if the Tchivulree might
prevail against the Iangkies, and the
land of Unclepslam might be diyi-
ded, and its Government brought to
naught. -.s.
2. So that many which were not
Kopur-hedds, but which wavered in
their purpose, joined themselves un-
to the sect Of Oueecneas for so
were they called which could not
stand up like men to the work which
vas before them.
8. And Seemer saw this. Where
fore he said. Behold, Abraham and
his counseliors are sl0thful, and the
land will be ruined because of their
slothfulness. Why do they not send
officers throughout the land, and let
lots be cast for men to fill up the ar
mics Of Unclepslan, that it may be
done speedily, and that with a high
hand and a mighty arm.
4. And the Copur-hedds said, yea
verify let the lot be cast, and let the
men be taken. Behold Abraham
and his counsellors are feeble. Let
the war be ragged with a hign hand
and mighty arm.
5. But in all this they were crafty
for the were wise in their generation
and sought only to get the Govern
ment into the hands of their faction
And they prospered for the time.
For>all Of their own faction, and all
of the sect of Oueecneas, gave their
voices for Seemer, SO that he was
made Governor.
6. Kew the Knsuvvutive forget
nothing, neither learned they any
thing; wherefore it was that they
remained in hot water lest they might
be scalded. ~tT7t
And Abraham remembered how
| it had been with rulers which were
Knsuvvative in the olden time how
they had either brought their nation
to ruin of themselves and how two
rulers, kings, even the King of the
land of Jonbool, before it became
the land of Jonbool, and while the
men Of Unclepsalm, even the lang
kies dwslt therein, and the King of
the land of Pahivoos, which were
good men, but Knsuvvativs, and
forgot nothing, neither learned any
thing, and got themselves into hot
water and remained therein least
they should be scalded, were sol.
emnly beheaded for their Knsuvva-
tism.
s. And Abraham considered the
matter in his heart, and he said with.
in himself: The wise man remem
bereth the teachings of the past, but
he turneth away from the cry Of tht
present; neither stoppeth he his ears
against the chiding of his adversary
for it may profit him. So, although
Abraham was not numbered among
the Knsuvvativs, he hardened unto
their counsels.
9. Now there were others, chic
men Of the Dimmichrats, which die
likewise. And there were Benbut
lah, who first discovered that tn.
everlasting Niggah, was kontrab
band (Now contrab- band, in ths
language of all the gentiles, is every
thing which doeth harm unto hin
that maketh war, and helpeth his
enemy to war upon him :; and Dan
iel, surnamed Scripturdict because
he searched the Scriptures, not te
find something to his advantage
but that he might expound them un
to the people; and Jembray Dee, ,
great lawyer of Gotham, who woul6
take no office. and who was q son o.
a Pahdee. Likewise were there
many others of this sort among thu
Dimnichrats. s.-.
| 10. And Abraham said. Let tn.
lot be cast who shall serve in the ar
mics of Unclepslam. And, whereas
by them of Olden times, even by
Moses, it was said that only he who
had taken wife should not go tc
war, let now every man who is tn,
J only son Of widow, and who is th,
