yed with his hand. So Saul was
refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him.--I
SAMUEL, xvi., 23.

(_f_) And the Philistines gathered themselves together, and came and
pitched in Shunem; and Saul gathered all Israel together, and they
pitched in Gilboa.--I SAMUEL, xxviii., 4.

(_g_) Then said Saul unto his servants, "Seek me a woman that hath a
familiar spirit, that I may go to her and enquire of her." And his
servants said to him, "Behold, there is a woman that hath a familiar
spirit at Endor." And Saul disguised himself, and came to the woman by
night. And he said, "I pray thee, divine unto me by the familiar
spirit, and bring him up whom I shall name of thee."--I SAMUEL,
xxviii., 7, 8.

(_h_) And Samuel said to Saul, "Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring
me up?" And Saul answered, "I am sore distressed, for the Philistines
make war against me, and God is departed from me, and answereth me no
more. Therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest make known unto
me what I shall do." And Samuel said, "Because thou obeyedst not the
voice of the Lord, nor executedst not his fierce wrath upon Amalek,
therefore hath the Lord done this thing unto thee this day. To-morrow
shalt thou and thy sons be with me; and the Lord also shall deliver the
host of Israel into the hand of the Philistines." Then Saul fell
straightway all along on the earth.--I SAMUEL, xxviii., 15, 20.

(_i_) And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers hit him,
and he was sore wounded of the archers. Then said Saul unto his
armour-bearer, "Draw thy sword, and thrust me through therewith, lest
these uncircumcised come and thrust me through." But his armour-bearer
would not, therefore Saul took a sword and fell upon it. And when his
armour-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise upon his sword,
and died with him.--I SAMUEL, xxxi., 3, 5.

(_j_) And David said unto the young man, "How knowest thou that Saul
and Jonathan his son be dead?" And the young man that told him said:
"As I happened by chance upon Mount Gilboa, behold, Saul leaned upon
his spear: and lo! the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him.
And he said unto me, Stand, I pray thee, upon me, and slay me; for
anguish is come upon me, because my life is yet whole within me. So I
stood upon him, and slew him, because I was sure that he could not
live, after that he was fallen."--II SAMUEL, i., 5, 10.
