woordes He callyng his children about hym saied vnto them Ye childrē of Isachar heare your Father and harken to the woordes of the beloued of the Lorde I am Iacobs fifth sonne in the reward of Mandrake For Iacob broughte Mandrakes out of the fielde and Rachell meetyng hym tooke them of hym Thereat Ruben wept and at his noise my mother Lea came out Now the Mandrakes were sweete sented apples whiche the lande of Aran bryngeth forthe in high countreis by the waterualleis And Rachell saied I will not geue thee these Apples because they shal helpe me to children Now there were twoo of these Apples And Lea said doth it not suffice thee that thou hast gotten awaie the housbande of virginitie but that thou wilte haue this also She aunswered let Iacob lye with thee to night for thy sonnes Mandragoras Lea saied vnto her do not boste nor brag for Iacob is myne and I am the wife of his youth And Rachell aunswered howe so was he not first handfasted vnto me and serued he not our Father fowerteene yeres for me What shall I doe to thee For many are the wiles and policies of menne and gile goes forward vpon yearth If it had been otherwise thou shouldest not haue sen Iacob in the face at this daie For thou arte not his wife but werte guilfully putte to hym in my steade My father deceiued me and conueiyng me awaie that nighte suffered me not to see hym For had I been there this had not come to passe Wherefore take thee one Mandrake and in lewe of the other I graunte thee hym for one nighte And Iacob knewe Lea who conceiuyng bare me and called my name Isachar because of the hire Then an Angell of the lorde appeared vnto Iacob and said that Rachel should beare but two sonnes because she had forsaken the companie of her housebande and chosen continencie And if my mother Lea had not geuen thee twoo Apples for his companie she should haue borne eighte children whereas by reason of that she bare but sixe and Rachell twoo because GOD visited her in the Mandrakes For he knewe that she desired to company with Iacob for issues sake and not for luste of pleasure For she ●●ned vp the Mandrake and deliuered it to Iacob the next daie and therefore God heard Rachell in the Mandrakes because that although she had a mynde to them yet she eate them not but offered them to the Prieste of the moste highest whiche was in those daies and laied them vp in the Lordes house Therefore my children when I came to mannes state I walked with an vprighe harte and became Bayliff● of Housebandrie to my Fathers and broughte them the fruites of their Landes in their due seasons and my Father blessed me when he sawe how● I walked plainly and ●mplie I was no busie bodie in my dooynges I was not hurtfull nor spitefull to my neighbour I rai●ed not vpon any manne neither dispraised I the life of any that walked in singlenesse of mynde By reason hereof when I was thirtie yeres olde ▪ I tooke a wife be●ause labour had cōsumed my strength I neuer knewe the pleasure of a woman through wantonnesse but my laboure made me to sleepe soundlie and my Father did alwaies reioice of my simplicity For whatsoeuer paines I tooke first of al I offered al the first fruites and the first ingendered cattle to the Lorde by the Priest and then gaue my Father the reste and the Lorde doubled his benefites in my handes Yea and Iacob hym self perceiued well that GOD wrought with my plain dealyng For vnto euery poore man and to euery man in aduersitie gaue I of the frutes of the yearth with a single harte And nowe my children harken and walke in singlenesse of mynde for I knowe that the lorde is verie well pleased with it The single-harted manne coueteth not golde vndermineth not his neighbour lusteth not after diuersitie of meates destreth not shifte of apparell nor behighteth hym self long tyme but onely hath an eye to Gods will and the spirites of error can doe nothyng against hym For he can no skill to entertaine a faire woman least he should destie his owne mynde wrathe ouermaistereth not his witte enuie melteth not his soule neither doeth his mynde run coueteously vpon gain For he leadeth an vpright life and beholdeth all thynges with a single eye excludyng all hurtfulnesse of worldly errour leaste he should ouersee any of the Commaundementes of God Therefore my children keepe Gods Lawe and holde faste plainnesse walke on in ●●nocencie and bee not to inquisitiue in Gods secretes or of your neighbours doynges but loue God and your neighboure pitie the poore and weake bowe doune your backs to Housbandrie and labour in tillyng of the yearth in all maner of Housbandrie offering presentes to the lorde with thankesgeuyng who blesseth the yearth with encrease and newe spryng of fruites as he blessed all holy men from Abell to this daie for there is none other portion geuē thee then of the fatnesse of the yearth ▪
