phases. II is especially so in that part from which
text Is taken. Joseph's prediction was fuihiisd
to the woru. Tho years Of plenty mad come and
had rapidly passed away The time Of pros

comsth thy poverty" ike weary wanderer IL comes
upon Us loaih TO leave US. So the years OF
famine appeared, aud, ike hungry guests, they do
vourcd what the better times had prepared. Want
