Book Description
Excerpt from The Works of Sir Walter Ralegh, Kt. Now First Collected, Vol. 4 of 8: To Which Are Prefixed the Lives of the Author; History of the World, Book II. Chap. 13, 5.-28 Then the Lord by his angel stirred up qgideon the son of J oash, afterwards called J erubbaal whose fear and nu willingness, and how it pleased God to hearten him in his enterprise, it is both largely and precisely set down in the holy scriptures: as also how it pleased God by a few select persons, namely 300 out of men, to make them know that he only was the Lord Of hosts. Each of these 300, by Gideon's appointment, carried a trumpet, and light in a pitcher, instruments of more terror than force, with which he gave the great army of their enemies an alarum; who hearing so loud a noise, and seeing (at the crack of so many pitchers broken) so many lights about them, esteeming the army of Israel to be infinite, and strucken with a sudden fear, they all fled without a stroke stricken; and were slaughtered in great numbers, two of their princes being made prisoners and slain. In his return, the Ephraimites began to quarrel with Gideon, because he made war with out their assistance, being then greedy of glory, the victory being gotten; who, if Gideon had failed, and fallen in the enterprise, would no doubt have held themselves happy by being neglected. But Gideon appeasing them with a mild answer, followed after the enemy, in which pursuit being tired with travel, and weary even with the slaughtering of his enemies, he desired relief from the inhabitants of Suc coth, to the end that (his men being refreshed) he might overtake the other two kings of the Midianites, which had saved themselves by flight. For they were four princes of the nations which had invaded and wasted Israel; to wit, Oreb and Zeeb, which were taken already, and Zebah and Salmunna, which fled.

All this was a false lie, devised by Apelles himself upon no other ground than his own malice. Philip had no sooner heard his tale, but in a great rage he sent for the two Arati, and bade Apelles rehearse it over again to their faces. Apelles did so, and with a bold countenance, talking to them as to men already convicted. And when he had said all the rest, ere either Philip or they spake any word, he added this clause, it were in the king's name Since the king hath found you such ungrateful wretches, it is his meaning to hold a parliament of the Achteans; and therein having made it known what ye are, to depart into Macedon, and leave you to yourselves. Old Aratus gravely admonished the king, that whensoever he heard any accusation, especially against a friend of his own, or a man of worth, he should forbear a while to give credit, until he had diligently ex amined the business: for such deliberation was kingly, and he should never thereof repent him. At the present, he said, there needed no more, than to call in those that had heard his talk with Amphidamus; and especially him that had brought this goodly tale to Apelles. For it would be a very absurd thing, that the king should make himself an thor of a report in the open parliament of Achaia, whereof there was none other evidence than one man's yea and an other's no. Hereof the king liked well, and said that he would make sufficient inquiry. So passed a few days; wherein whilst Apelles delayed to bring in the proof, which indeed he wanted, Amphidamus came from Elis, and told what had befallen him there. The king was not forgetful to examine him about the conspiracy of the Arati; which when he found no better than a mere device against his honourable friends, he entertained them in loving manner as before. As for his love to Apelles, though it was hereby somewhat cooled, yet, by means of long acquaintance and daily employment, no remission therein could be discerned. The unrestful temper of Apelles having with much vebe. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
