GENTLE fhowers of rain began now to fall, and to an- 

 nounce the approach of winter ; nay, fome unufually

 gora, Aylo fon of Ozoro Welleta Ifrael the queen's daughter, 

 governor of Gojam, Woodage Afahel, with the troops of 

 Maitlha, and Coque Abou Barea from Kuara, were at the head 

 of all the forces they could raife about Emfras and Nabca,

 Zaat and Dehannah, two clans of Lafta, enemies to Guigarr, 

 who had declared for Michael ; and thefe were the bell horfe
