It Is even as jeremiah has said

Of Huldah had been brought TO him
and he had sent for jeremiah. and
then had begun a closer intimacy BE-
tween the two than had existed be
fore.
But. exclaimed the king one day
~ the Judgment Of God against the
nation cannot be stayed. what is there
that can be done to make the blow

explained jeremiah. that God has
chosen the C~haldeans as his rod "a
punish Judah. and that they shall yet
come into possession OF the land and
shall stand in the gates Of Jerusalem
Were Il not well. therefore. to strive
70 win their favor"
This word OF jeremiah had opened
up a new train Of thought 70 kins
Josiah. and as bitter as vas the
thought that some day the Chaidesns
we're 70 conquer the country and &C.
cupy Jerusalem. he knew that God
judgments were true and Just. and in
humblene-s Of spirit he sought hoS'
he might tighten the blow
Not very long after this word came

king % Egypt had started OF an expe
dition against the king Of the Chal.

II Necho and his Egyptian army
pass through the land on their way &c
Babylon, and ve make not his way
hard and give him battle. how else
can the Chaldeans view II than that
Ne are in league with their enemies
And will they not later come against
Us and trouble u.s.
Thus Josiah reasoned. and knowing
that his plan would meet the approval
Of jeremiah the prophet. he prepared
him his char.ots and his horses. and
putting his men OF war in battle ar.
ray in the valley Of Negiddo sought
to bar the way Of the Egyptian army.
II had been a tender and affection
ate farewell which Jeremiah had
spoken 70 King Josiah as the latter
had marched forth from Jerusalem.
and anXiously the prophet waited for
tidings u the battle. From the tower
over the gate he watched. and during
those days Of anxious waiting there
swept over him a foOd,ide Of memory
OF the splendid life and deeds OF the
good king.
We cannot spare him. He must
come back safe. he exclaimed over
and over to himself.
He lifted his eyes as he spoke and
looked far out over the plain below
What vas that in the distance Did
il 0 look like the kings chariot
But why did II seem 20 be moving so
slowly? Fear seized upon his heart
as he fastened out TO meet the ap-
preaching procession.

noted the sad looks Of the kings
