Saul was much affected with music, and had need of music to assuage the violent fits of that spirit of frenzy that haunted him: and yet no music was ever so delectable unto him, as informations against David and his friends, or tidings where David might be met with. He thought that great wrong was done him by his Courtiers, that would not complain of Jonathan his own son for favouring of David. And when Doeg related after what manner Ahimelek the high 1Priest entertained David in Gods house, he made a pleasant banquet to the heart of Saul. And so did the Ziphims, when they advertised him, that David was hid by them in holds, and they would deliver him into his hands. Blessed be ye of the 2Lord (saith he unto them) for ye have had compassion on me.
Saul was much affected with musicke, and had need of musicke to asswage the violent fits of that spirit of phrensie that haunted him: and yet no musicke was euer so delectable vnto him, as informations against Dauid and his friends, or tidings where Dauid might be met with. He thought that great wrong was done him by his Courtiers, that would not complaine of Ionathan his owne sonne for fauouring of Dauid. And when Doeg related after what manner Ahimelek the high 1Priest entertained Dauid in Gods house, hee made a pleasant banquet to the heart of Saul. And so did the Ziphims, when they aduertised him, that Dauid was hid by them in holds, and they would deliuer him into his hands. Blessed be ye of the 2Lord (saith he vnto them) for ye haue had compassion on me.
