have_v the_o fault_n and_o virtue_n of_o abimelech_n so_o far_o as_o i_o can_v note_v they_o out_o of_o holy_a writ_n consider_v now_o what_o benefit_n god_n bestow_v upon_o he_o first_o benefit_n he_o make_v he_o a_o king_n king_n in_o those_o day_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o king_n be_v not_o ruler_n over_o so_o large_a dominion_n as_o now_o they_o be_v of_o old_a the_o chief_a ruler_n over_o one_o or_o two_o city_n and_o the_o territory_n about_o it_o be_v a_o king_n as_o in_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n there_o be_v 31_o king_n and_o the_o five_o city_n of_o the_o plain_a of_o sodom_n

consider_v it_o be_v a_o favour_n of_o god_n to_o prefer_v a_o man_n unto_o the_o honour_n of_o a_o king_n as_o the_o scripture_n prove_v in_o say_v 22.29_o a_o diligent_a servant_n shall_v stand_v before_o king_n and_o not_o before_o those_o of_o the_o mean_a sort_n if_o to_o be_v in_o favour_n and_o account_v with_o a_o king_n be_v a_o thing_n fit_a to_o be_v promise_v as_o a_o reward_n of_o
