418. For that which befalleth the sons of men _be-falleth beasts; even
one thing befalleth them; as the one dieth so dieth the other_; yea,
they have all one breath; so that a man _hath no pre-eminence over a
beast_; for all is vanity. _All go unto one place_; all are of the dust,
_and all turn to dust again_. Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth
upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward, to the earth?
Wherefore I perceive that there is nothing better than that a man should
rejoice in his own works, for that is _his_ portion; for who shall bring
him to see _what shall be after him?_ Eccle. iii. 19 to 22.

filled; and they took up of the broken meat that was left, _seven_
baskets full. And they that did eat were _four thousand_ men, beside
women and children. Matt. xv. 34 to 38.
424. But he said unto them, Give ye them to eat, and they said, We have
no more but _five loaves_ and _two fishes_; except we should go and buy
meat for all this people. For there were _about five thousand men_. And
he said to his disciples, Make them sit down by fifties in a company.
Then he took the _five_ loaves and the _two_ fishes, and looking up
to heaven he blessed them, and brake, and gave to the disciples to set
before the multitude. And they did eat, and were all filled; and there

ix. 13, 14, 16, 17.
