* wrote a letter.
It was resolved in David's breast that Uriah must die--that
innocent, valiant, and gallant man, who was ready to sacrifice
his life for the honour of his prince; and, worse than all, by
being himself made the bearer of letters to Joab which
prescribed the mode by which he was to be murdered. This was
the greatest treachery and villany on the part of David; while
Joab appears to enter as fully upon the execution of the
murder, being perhaps pleased to have this opportunity of
further enthralling his king, and thus increasing his own
power.
