divers_a interpretation_n it_o seem_v unto_o i_o that_o i_o see_v a_o vine_n stock_n that_o divide_v itself_o into_o three_o branch_n load_v with_o very_o fair_a grape_n which_o i_o press_v into_o the_o king_n cup_n to_o present_v it_o he_o i_o take_v a_o extreme_a pleasure_n to_o serve_v my_o prince_n when_o a_o noise_n awake_v i_o sir_n reply_v joseph_n your_o dream_n need_v not_o to_o be_v long_o to_o be_v good_a the_o conjecture_n be_v so_o favourable_a that_o i_o fear_v not_o to_o tell_v it_o you_o the_o three_o branch_n which_o you_o have_v see_v denote_v that_o you_o shall_v be_v yet_o three_o day_n unfortunate_a after_o which_o you_o shall_v enter_v again_o into_o the_o good_a grace_n of_o your_o prince_n by_o the_o favour_n of_o his_o good_a grace_n into_o all_o your_o honour_n i_o can_v deceive_v you_o long_o than_o three_o day_n if_o you_o find_v i_o a_o liar_n count_v i_o a_o villain_n but_o if_o the_o event_n prove_v true_a i_o desire_v no_o other_o recompense_n of_o you_o but_o that_o you_o will_v speak_v a_o good_a word_n for_o i_o unto_o pharaoh_n and_o procure_v i_o my_o liberty_n you_o suppose_v to_o oblige_v herein_o a_o slave_n but_o you_o shall_v oblige_v the_o son_n of_o the_o chief_a of_o the_o hebrew_n this_o good_a prophecy_n please_v so_o much_o the_o chief_a baker_n that_o he_o believe_v to_o have_v as_o happy_o dream_v as_o his_o companion_n and_o promise_v himself_o by_o the_o resemblance_n of_o the_o vision_n a_o event_n equal_a unto_o he_o i_o think_v say_v he_o that_o i_o carry_v this_o night_n upon_o my_o head_n three_o basket_n full_a of_o all_o sort_n of_o bake_a meat_n and_o of_o most_o exquisite_a viand_n i_o know_v not_o what_o presage_n i_o may_v draw_v from_o a_o accident_n during_o this_o occupation_n though_o these_o delicate_n be_v not_o for_o the_o bird_n they_o eat_v up_o notwithstanding_o all_o that_o which_o be_v expose_v to_o they_o joseph_n who_o desire_v not_o to_o say_v but_o good_a

on_o the_o gibbet_n to_o serve_v for_o food_n to_o the_o crow_n if_o this_o explication_n be_v believe_v or_o reject_v i_o can_v say_v but_o i_o be_o certain_a that_o the_o interpretation_n see_v nothing_o that_o be_v not_o find_v true_a and_o that_o the_o success_n prove_v its_o experience_n we_o have_v a_o little_a to_o observe_v that_o the_o dream_n have_v show_v to_o our_o slave_n some_o one_o of_o his_o adventure_n the_o encounter_n of_o those_o which_o we_o come_v to_o hear_v be_v one_o of_o the_o cause_n of_o his_o good_a fortune_n it_o be_v hereby_o that_o the_o good_a fortune_n of_o joseph_n begin_v because_o that_o god_n willing_a to_o dispose_v pharaoh_n to_o the_o greatness_n of_o his_o faithful_a servant_n he_o send_v he_o two_o vision_n which_o busy_v all_o the_o wit_n of_o egypt_n without_o give_v content_a to_o the_o king_n one_o day_n this_o prince_n keep_v court_n and_o open_a table_n to_o his_o subject_n relate_v unto_o they_o what_o he_o have_v dream_v the_o precedent_a night_n but_o as_o he_o find_v no_o body_n that_o can_v give_v he_o the_o knowledge_n thereof_o the_o butler_n who_o prosperity_n have_v make_v to_o forget_v the_o benefit_n of_o joseph_n

a_o good_a advice_n for_o fear_v to_o repeal_v the_o remembrance_n of_o a_o infamy_n but_o i_o who_o be_o very_o glad_a to_o confess_v my_o crime_n to_o publish_v your_o clemency_n and_o who_o hold_v

one_o of_o my_o dream_n assure_v i_o of_o all_o the_o event_n which_o i_o see_v in_o my_o fortune_n i_o think_v if_o it_o please_v your_o majesty_n to_o send_v for_o he_o that_o he_o will_v declare_v unto_o you_o the_o true_a sense_n of_o your_o dream_n the_o king_n who_o desire_v passionate_o to_o be_v clear_v upon_o this_o subject_n command_v present_o that_o he_o shall_v come_v forth_o out_o of_o prison_n our_o slave_n never_o think_v himself_o so_o much_o in_o a_o dream_n as_o when_o he_o see_v a_o great_a number_n of_o person_n about_o he_o of_o who_o some_o present_v he_o rich_a

friend_n i_o pray_v thou_o not_o to_o excuse_v thou_o upon_o thy_o ignorance_n and_o if_o thou_o know_v the_o truth_n think_v not_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v odious_a to_o i_o if_o it_o be_v not_o please_v i_o will_v make_v more_o account_n of_o thy_o freeness_n then_o of_o all_o the_o disguise_n with_o which_o thou_o may_v flatter_v i_o i_o understand_v that_o thou_o can_v divine_v the_o

notwithstanding_o that_o the_o circumstance_n may_v not_o change_v thy_o judgement_n behold_v all_o the_o particularity_n thereof_o one_o night_n it_o be_v represent_v i_o that_o i_o walk_v upon_o the_o bank_n of_o nile_n from_o whence_o i_o see_v come_v forth_o seven_o fat_a kine_n who_o afterward_o go_v to_o feed_v in_o the_o marsh_n far_o distant_a from_o the_o bank_n of_o the_o river_n and_o it_o seem_v unto_o i_o that_o i_o have_v never_o see_v fair_a beast_n than_o these_o but_o while_o i_o consider_v they_o i_o perceive_v seven_o other_o very_o unlike_a unto_o they_o for_o they_o be_v so_o lean_a that_o their_o skin_n scarce_o cover_v their_o bone_n certain_o if_o they_o have_v not_o have_v motion_n i_o shall_v have_v take_v they_o for_o skeleton_n so_o anatomise_v be_v they_o their_o rib_n be_v so_o apparent_a as_o if_o they_o have_v be_v naked_a if_o hunger_n can_v appear_v to_o the_o eye_n and_o that_o she_o can_v content_v herself_o to_o feed_v on_o sand_n i_o shall_v have_v think_v to_o see_v she_o under_o this_o figure_n while_o i_o admire_v the_o extreme_a meagerness_n of_o those_o beast_n they_o begin_v to_o run_v towards_o the_o first_o with_o so_o much_o swiftness_n as_o if_o rage_n have_v provoke_v they_o that_o which_o give_v i_o most_o astonishment_n be_v to_o see_v that_o almost_o in_o a_o moment_n they_o devour_v these_o fat_a kine_n without_o so_o much_o as_o one_o that_o escape_v this_o be_v not_o yet_o the_o end_n of_o my_o vision_n for_o at_o the_o same_o hour_n i_o see_v grow_v up_o as_o it_o be_v under_o my_o foot_n a_o stalk_n of_o corn_n have_v seven_o ear_n rank_a and_o goodly_a but_o as_o if_o they_o be_v to_o run_v the_o same_o fortune_n that_o the_o beast_n of_o my_o first_o dream_n do_v i_o see_v seven_o other_o so_o blast_v and_o wither_v that_o they_o dry_v up_o the_o other_o so_o quick_o that_o one_o will_v have_v almost_o believe_v that_o their_o presence_n make_v they_o dissolve_v or_o vanish_v rather_o than_o perish_v as_o the_o king_n have_v end_v the_o recital_n
