And Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spake unto the men; and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why camest thou down hither? and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy pride, and the naughtiness of thine heart; for thou art come down that thou mightest see the battle. And David said, What have I now done? Is there not a cause?
Nimbus returned to the porch of Eliab's house where the preacher sat thoughtfully scanning the summons and capias. "What you tink ob dis ting, 'Liab?"
