Esther2:1
1 AFter these things when the wrath of king Ahasuerus was appeased, he remembred Vashti, and what she had done, and what was decreed against her.
With grief and shame, that in his Wine and Rage, he had so severely punished, and so irrevocably rejected so beautiful and desireable a Person, and that for so small a provocation, to which she was easily led by the modesty of her Sex, and by the Laws and Customs of Persia.
