year_n of_o famine_n be_v begin_v the_o which_o he_o call_v manasseh_n for_o say_v he_o god_n make_v i_o to_o forget_v my_o misery_n and_o all_o my_o father_n house_n and_o after_o he_o be_v bear_v another_o he_o call_v ephraim_n for_o god_n say_v he_o have_v make_v i_o to_o possess_v abundance_n in_o the_o land_n of_o my_o distress_n and_o when_o the_o seven_o plenteous_a year_n be_v go_v the_o seven_o year_n of_o famine_n next_o come_v on_o as_o joseph_n say_v and_o there_o be_v a_o great_a dearth_n in_o every_o nation_n throughout_o all_o the_o earth_n but_o in_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n there_o be_v bread_n and_o when_o the_o people_n almost_o famish_v complain_v to_o the_o king_n he_o bid_v they_o go_v to_o joseph_n and_o whatever_o he_o say_v to_o do_v and_o now_o the_o famine_n daily_o wax_a sore_n joseph_n begin_v to_o bring_v forth_o of_o his_o store_n which_o he_o have_v lay_v up_o for_o the_o public_a good_a to_o who_o the_o egyptian_n come_v and_o buy_v their_o food_n

we_o that_o so_o our_o crave_v stomach_n may_v be_v feed_v and_o not_o lie_v here_o and_o die_v for_o lack_v of_o bread_n thus_o jacob_n ten_o son_n be_v to_o egypt_n send_v but_o joseph_n brother_n benjamin_n never_o go_v for_o why_o his_o father_n say_v i_o will_v not_o send_v he_o lest_o peradventure_o some_o ill_a chance_n attend_v he_o and_o joseph_n brethren_n come_v among_o the_o rest_n to_o buy_v provision_n for_o they_o be_v distress_v now_o he_o be_v governor_n of_o all_o the_o land_n and_o all_o the_o corn_n of_o egypt_n in_o his_o hand_n wherefore_o his_o brethren_n when_o they_o come_v to_o treat_v with_o he_o for_o corn_n bow_v down_o even_o at_o his_o foot_n and_o he_o no_o soon_o see_v they_o but_o he_o know_v they_o and_o show_v himself_o extreme_o strange_a unto_o

come_v as_o spy_n to_o see_v in_o what_o distress_n our_o country_n lie_v but_o they_o reply_v again_o my_o lord_n we_o be_v come_v only_o to_o buy_v some_o food_n to_o carry_v home_o think_v not_o thy_o servant_n spy_n but_o true_a man_n rather_o for_o we_o be_v all_o the_o child_n of_o one_o father_n nay_o nay_o say_v he_o but_o you_o be_v come_v to_o pry_v into_o the_o nation_n great_a necessity_n but_o they_o reply_v again_o thy_o servant_n be_v inhabitant_n of_o cana'n_v and_o declare_v that_o we_o be_v twelve_o brethren_n who_o one_o man_n beget_v the_o young_a be_v at_o home_n and_o one_o be_v not_o well_o then_o say_v joseph_n hereby_o shall_v i_o know_v whether_o you_o be_v spy_n as_o i_o have_v say_v or_o no_o now_o by_o the_o life_n of_o pharaoh_n do_v i_o swear_v unless_o your_o brother_n come_v i_o will_v keep_v you_o here_o send_v one_o of_o you_o and_o fetch_v the_o lad_n to_o i_o and_o you_o shall_v be_v confine_v so_o shall_v there_o be_v a_o proof_n of_o what_o you_o say_v before_o my_o eye_n or_o by_o the_o life_n of_o pharaoh_n you_o be_v spy_n then_o he_o for_o three_o day_n put_v they_o all_o in_o ward_n and_o on_o the_o three_o day_n say_v i_o have_v regard_n to_o equity_n therefore_o if_o you_o be_v true_a and_o honest_a man_n do_v this_o let_v one_o of_o you_o be_v bind_v in_o prison_n here_o and_o let_v the_o other_o go_v carry_v corn_n home_o and_o bring_v i_o your_o brother_n so_o shall_v you_o be_v approve_v and_o shall_v not_o die_v and_o they_o prepare_v to_o do_v according_o and_o as_o they_o be_v discourse_v to_o each_o other_o they_o say_v we_o be_v in_o fault_n about_o our_o brother_n in_o that_o we_o see_v his_o soul_n in_o great_a distress_n and_o yet_o be_v so_o exceed_o pitiless_a as_o not_o to_o hearken_v to_o his_o earnest_a cry_n this_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o these_o our_o misery_n and_o reuben_n say_v you_o know_v i_o do_v forewarn_v and_o beg_v that_o you_o will_v do_v the_o child_n no_o harm_n but_o you_o will_v not_o do_v then_o as_o i_o desire_v and_o now_o his_o blood_n be_v at_o our_o hand_n require_v thus_o they_o discourse_v about_o the_o cause_n that_o bring_v their_o present_a trouble_n but_o they_o little_o think_v that_o joseph_n know_v of_o what_o they_o do_v confer_v because_o he_o speak_v by_o a_o interpreter_n and_o he_o be_v move_v at_o their_o word_n withdraw_v to_o weep_v and_o then_o return_v to_o renew_v his_o former_a talk_n and_o choose_v simeon_n out_o before_o they_o all_o he_o bind_v he_o hand_n and_o foot_n and_o give_v command_v to_o fill_v their_o sack_n

with_o their_o ass_n lade_v towards_o home_n they_o go_v and_o when_o into_o their_o inn_n they_o come_v as_o one_o of_o they_o his_o sack_n of_o corn_n untie_v to_o give_v his_o ass_n some_o

it_o be_v here_o in_o my_o sack_n on_o sight_n whereof_o their_o heart_n be_v sore_o dismay_v and_o be_v very_o much_o affright_v say_v what_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o god_n about_o to_o do_v that_o we_o do_v thus_o these_o trouble_n undergo_v then_o come_v to_o their_o father_n they_o relate_v after_o what_o sort_n they_o be_v in_o egypt_n treat_v and_o say_v the_o man_n that_o be_v lord_n of_o all_o the_o land_n and_o have_v the_o store_n of_o corn_n all_o in_o his_o hand_n speak_v rough_o to_o we_o and_o affirm_v that_o we_o be_v come_v the_o weakness_n of_o the_o land_n to_o see_v to_o
