Judges 9:55

Jdg 9:55 And when the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, they departed every man unto his place.

Ver. 55. They departed every man to his place. ] They stayed not to take the tower, and to revenge their lord’s death, but haply were glad they were rid of such a tyrant.

“ Cure mors crudelem rapuisset saeva Neronem,

Credibile est multos Romam agitasse iocos.”
