D 18 MISCELLANEOUS POEMS.
A dreadful fray once rose among These self-named tribes of I am ; Where Korah fell, and by his side Fell Dathan and Abiram.
An earthquake swallowed thousands up, And fire came down like stones ; Which slew their sons and daughters all, Their wives and little ones.
Twas all about old Aaron s tythes This murdering quarrel rose ; For tythes are worldly things of old, That lead from words to blows.
A Jew of Venice has explained, In the language of his nation, The manner ho...w this fray began, Of which here is translation.
There was a widow old and poor, Who scarce herself could keep ; Her stock of goods was very small, Her flocks one single sheep.
And when her time of shearing came, She counted much her gains ; For now, said she, I shall be blest, With plenty for my pains.
When Aaron heard the sheep was shear d, And gave a good increase, He straightway sent his tything man, And took away the fleece.
At this the weeping, widow went To Korah to complain, And Korah he to Aaron went In order to explain.
