And leſt I ſhould think by ſome means to make eſcape, (as David did from Saul and his Hoſt, by a providence, 1 Sam. 23.27. as Hannibal did from the Romanes by a ſtratagem.)

Thou [illegible: 1 span] ] A[illegible: 1 letter]by an [illegible: 1 word] ſo that I am thy priſoner, and cannot ſtir a foot from thee.
