 grain, ought ever to be condemned. For 

 peafe alfo but once, fow the fame quantity 

 and gain about 20 bufhels. Beans they

 the old man in blue drapery is executed in

 hands very well done. The figures and 

 the attitude of Chrift in this piece reminds

 lar, paved with black and white marble.
