And Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh. For the Egyptians sold every man his land because the dearth was sore upon them: and so the land became Pharaoh's. And he appointed the people unto the cities / from one side of Egypt unto the other: only the land of the Priests bought he not. For there ⟨image 81⟩was an ordinance made by Pharaoh for y• *priests / that they should eat that which was appointed unto them: which Pharaoh had given them wherefore they sold not their lands.
And Joseph boughte all the lande of Egipte for Pharao. For the Egiptians solde euery man his londe because the derth was sore apō them: and so the londe became Pharaos. And he appoynted the people vnto the cities / from one syde of Egipte vnto the other: only the londe of the Prestes bought he not. For there ⟨image 81⟩was an ordinaūce made by Pharao for y• *pre astes / that they shulde eate that which was appoynted vnto them: which Pharao had geuen them wherfore they solde not their londes.
- *The blind guides get previleges from bearing with their brethren contrary to Christs law of love. And of these priests of idols did •ure compassing yvetrees learn to crepe up by little & little & to compass y• great trees of the world with hypocrisy / and to thrust y• ro•es of idola tysse superstition in to hē & to su[…] out y• juice f thē with heir poe••ye / till all be seer bows and no thing green save their own com• wealth.
