As the king did not loved by tbe Lord, and bis character was so lovely that I should very much Hke my dear children to take example by it and show tbe same consistent life that he led.

He was a Jew of the tribe of Jndab, and when the -king Nebuchadnezzar came np to the fiity of Jerusalem and over threw it be took the children of tbe ro$*l family and of the princes an his captives. He told his general, Aahpenaa, ‘that he should bring to him children of the Jews in whom there was no blemish, bet well fa vored and skillful in wisdom and knowledge, and put them into the king’s palace, and give them a daily meal of the king’s provision and wine and nourish them for three years, so that at the end of that time they might stand before the king.’ So Ashpenaz did as he was ordered^ and he brought amongst the number Daniel. Now Daniel de termined tb£t he would not eat of tbe king’s bounty, for the laws of the Jews forbade many kinds of food to be eaten that the king bad upon his table, and Daniel did not wish to disobey God’s laws, so be asked Ash penaz to exease him from eating the food that he had set before him. When Ashpenaz said that he was afraid that the king would not be pleased and that Daniel and his friends would become thin and. look sickly if they ate only vegetables and drank nothing bnt water, Dan iel said, ‘Try ns now for ten days, and see If we don’t look as well as any of those that eat of the king’s meat’ So he consented to let them eat what they chose, and at the end of ten days Daniel and his friends looked fairer and hand somer than ever.
