that_o be_v no_o more_o dream_v of_o by_o the_o old_a patriarch_n but_o only_o what_o joseph_n see_v in_o his_o vision_n then_o be_v of_o late_o think_v on_o by_o the_o young_a patriarch_n of_o

to_o cage_n they_o up_o both_o in_o ward_n together_o in_o egypt_n with_o their_o particoloured_a counsel_n as_o if_o they_o have_v be_v both_o alike_a enemy_n to_o his_o great_a stateliness_n and_o
