might sée and discerne the vttermost parts of the Israelites that he myght be sure to curse them all But when the Prophet went about his purpose God woulde not suffer him to curse his people but rather to blesse them Then sayde Balac did not I sende for thée to curse this people and why hast thou blessed them I tolde thée quoth Balaam that I coulde speake nothing but that which the Lord woulde haue me to speake Well sayde Balac I will bring thée where thou shalt sée but a portion of them and not all I praye thée curse that part for my sake But notwithstanding the Prophete blessed

wryte vpon the wall before him which thing so disquieted him that all the ioyntes of his bodye shooke And being in that great anguishe he sent for all the charmers and Coniurers in Babilon to knowe the meaning thereof but none of them all coulde reade it neyther yet tell what it ment Then was the King so sore afrayd that his colour began to chaunge and his body to be sore vexed for the which the Lordes and all the estate present were sore opprest with heauinesse to sée the King in that case Then the olde Quéene his Grandame hearing of all that was happened came vp to the feast and cheared the King bidding him to take no thought for the matter so long as Daniel was in his kingdome sende for him quoth she and he will tell thée what the writing meaneth Then was Daniel sent for And being come he tolde the King that forasmuch as he neyther remembred the fall of his father who for his pryde and hie stomacke was turned from the shape of a man to the shape of a beast for certaine yeares
