And there went with him also Charettes and horsemen: so that they were an exceadynge great companye. And when they came to y^e feld of Atad beyonde Iordane/ there they made great & exceadinge sore lamentaciõ. And he morned for his father .vij. dayes. When the enhabiters of the lande the Cananytes sawe the moornynge in y^e felde of Atad/ they saide: this is a greate moornynge which the Egiptians make. Wherfore y^e name of the place is called Abel mizraim/ which place lyeth beyonde Iordane. And his sonnes dyd vnto him acordynge as he had commaunded them. And his sonnes caried him in to the land of Canaan and buryed him in the double caue which Abrahã had boughte with the felde to be a place to burye in/ of Ephron the Hethite before Mamre. And Ioseph returned to Egipte agayne and his brethern/ and all that went vp with him to burye his father/ assone as he had buryed him. Whẽ Iosephs brethern sawe that their father was deade/ they sayde: Ioseph myghte fortune to hate us and rewarde us agayne all the euell which we dyd vnto him. They dyd therfore a commaundment vnto Ioseph saynge: thy father charged before his deth saynge. This wise say vnto Ioseph/ forgeue I pray the the trespace of thy brethern & their synne/ for they rewarded the euell. Now therfore we praye the/ forgeue the trespace of the servauntes of thy fathers God. And Ioseph wepte when they spake vnto him. And his brethern came ãd fell before him and sayde: beholde we be thy servauntes. And Ioseph sayde vnto them: feare not/ for am not I vnder god? Ye thoughte euell vnto me: but God turned it vnto good to bringe to passe/ as it is this daye/ euen to saue moch people a lyue Feare not therfore/ for I will care for you and for youre childern/ and he spake kyndly vnto them.
