Under this phrase, All our substance, cattle of all sorts are comprised, as bullocks, kine, horses, camels, asses, sheep, goats, even all kind of living and unreasonable creatures, that they carried with them, and were for their use: and all manner of household stuff, and other goods that they had; even the silver and the gold, and vessels that were given to the use of the Temple, whereof mention is made, chap. 7. 15, 16. &c.
