1. *[Greek or Hebrew]〈non-Latin alphabet〉

As if in all this he had pleaded thus; Lord thou hast abundantly indulged those men already, ⟨p. 3⟩what need they more? They have themselves, from thy unregarded bounty, their own vast swoln desires sufficiently filled, enough for their own time; and when they can live no longer in their Persons, they may in their Posterity, and leave not Strangers, but their numerous Off-spring, their heirs. Is it not enough, that their avarice be gratified, except their malice be also? That they have whatsoever they can conceive desirable for themselves, unless they may also infer what ever they can think mischievous on me?
