Judges5:25

25 He asked water, and she gave him milk, she brought forth ‖ butter in a lordly dish .

Which you are not to understand of such a stately and costly dish as the Luxury of after ages brought in, which is not agreeable to the simplicity either of this Family, or of those antient times; but of a comely and convenient dish, the best which she had, and such as the better sort of persons then used.

Marginal references: Or, cre[illegible: 1+ letters]m.
