as though . It is still the custom of the East , according to Dr. Perry , to allow the soldiers a certain quantity of corn , with other articles of provision , together with some pay , and as it was the custom also to grind the corn , as needed , at the break of day , these two captains very naturally went the day before to the palace , where the king's stores appear to have been kept , to fetch wheat , in order to distribute it to the soldiers under them , to be ground at the accustomed hour in the morning. The princes of the East , in those days , as appears from the history of David , reposed on their couches till the cool of the evening . they therefore came in the heat of the day , when they knew their master would be resting on his bed; and as it was a necessary to have the corn before it was needed , their coming at this time , though it might be earlier than usual , excited no suspicion.

Love not sleep , lest thou come to poverty and ruin. The idle soul is an easy prey to the destroyer.
