these_o to_o be_v mere_a fiction_n i_o shall_v instance_n some_o pleasant_a passage_n out_o of_o the_o talmud_n relate_v to_o the_o same_o purpose_n where_o we_o read_v that_o one_o rabbi_n chaja_n fortune_v to_o lodge_v one_o sabbath_n with_o a_o butcher_n and_o there_o be_v set_v before_o he_o a_o golden_a table_n burden_n enough_o for_o sixteen_o man_n on_o which_o there_o hang_v sixteen_o

be_v the_o lord_n but_o the_o earth_n have_v he_o give_v to_o the_o son_n of_o man_n and_o then_o the_o rabbi_n begin_v to_o inquire_v of_o the_o butcher_n how_o he_o have_v get_v such_o riches_n and_o what_o good_a work_n he_o have_v do_v the_o butcher_n reply_v hitherto_o have_v i_o be_v a_o butcher_n and_o when_o ever_o i_o light_v on_o a_o beast_n fat_a than_o usual_a i_o reserve_v it_o for_o the_o sabbath_n that_o i_o may_v do_v as_o i_o be_o command_v and_o therefore_o god_n have_v give_v i_o much_o riches_n for_o the_o honour_n i_o do_v to_o his_o day_n and_o when_o the_o rabbi_n

man_n true_o charitable_a name_v joseph_n if_o any_o thing_n extraordinary_a come_v to_o the_o market_n especial_o fish_n he_o spare_v no_o charge_n to_o buy_v it_o and_o he_o have_v a_o rich_a

have_v give_v all_o thy_o store_n to_o joseph_n the_o sabbath-observer_n he_o spare_v no_o charge_n to_o honour_v the_o day_n the_o rich_a man_n take_v some_o notice_n of_o what_o they_o say_v and_o

the_o same_o fish_n be_v bring_v into_o the_o market_n to_o be_v sell_v many_o cheapen_v it_o but_o think_v it_o too_o dear_a at_o length_n come_v this_o joseph_n and_o soon_o buy_v it_o and_o dress_v it_o find_v the_o hat_n and_o jewel_n which_o the_o rich_a traveller_n have_v lose_v so_o the_o astrologer_n prediction_n be_v verify_v and_o joseph_n grow_v rich_a on_o a_o sudden_a then_o there_o

he_o god_n give_v fourfold_a we_o read_v of_o another_o passage_n in_o the_o talmud_n concern_v feast_n how_o a_o certain_a rabbi_n every_o friday_n send_v his_o servant_n into_o the_o market_n to_o

distribute_v they_o to_o the_o poor_a israelite_n the_o answer_n be_v this_o that_o if_o he_o have_v give_v they_o to_o the_o poor_a than_o they_o in_o expectation_n of_o have_v they_o give_v still_o will_v not_o have_v provide_v for_o the_o sabbath_n and_o therefore_o if_o it_o shall_v happen_v that_o the_o seller_n have_v sell_v all_o and_o the_o poor_a not_o provide_v for_o themselves_o than_o the_o sabbath_n will_v not_o have_v have_v its_o due_a honour_n but_o why_o then_o do_v he_o not_o cause_v they_o to_o be_v give_v to_o the_o cattle_n it_o have_v be_v better_a to_o do_v so_o than_o to_o cast_v they_o careless_o away_o the_o answer_n be_v that_o he_o will_v not_o give_v those_o thing_n to_o cattle_n which_o man_n may_v eat_v and_o from_o which_o they_o may_v have_v profit_n for_o they_o may_v perchance_o take_v they_o out_o of_o the_o water_n but_o why_o do_v he_o command_v they_o to_o be_v buy_v the_o reason_n be_v that_o those_o who_o sell_v such_o commodity_n may_v willingly_a come_v to_o the_o market_n for_o suppose_v they_o to_o come_v often_o and_o sell_v nought_o they_o will_v soon_o be_v weary_a and_o not_o frequent_v the_o market_n and_o then_o the_o poor_a will_v have_v have_v nothing_o to_o eat_v on_o the_o sabbath_n and_o thereby_o will_v have_v deprive_v it_o of_o its_o due_a honour_n moreover_o we_o read_v in_o a_o treatise_n of_o the_o sabbath_n that_o if_o any_o one_o on_o the_o sabbath_n let_v loose_v the_o reins_o to_o pleasure_n and_o so_o pass_v the_o day_n that_o god_n give_v he_o a_o heritage_n for_o ever_o as_o it_o be_v
