Chapter 1
The prophesy of Esaie the son of
Amos, which he showed upon Juda and Jerusalem in the time of Oziah,
Joatham, Ahaz, and Jehezekiah, Kings of Juda. Hear O' heaven hearken
O' earth, for the Lord speaketh: I have nourished and brought up
children, and they are fallen away from me. An ox knoweth his Lord,
and an Ass his masters stall, but Israel knoweth nothing, my people
hath no understanding. Alas for this sinful people, which are expert
in blasphemies, a froward generation, unnatural children. They have
forsaken the Lord, they have provoked the holy one of Israel unto
anger, and are gone backward. Wherefore should ye be plagued any
more? For yee are ever falling away. The whole head is sick, and the
heart is very heavy. From the sole of the foot unto the head, there
is no whole part in all your body: but all are wounds, botches,
sores and stripes, which can neither be helped, bound up, ner eased
with any ointment.
Your land lieth waste, your cities are burnt up, your enemies
devour your land, and you must be *faine to stand, and look upon it:
and it is desolate, as it were with enemies in battle. Moreover the
daughter of Zion is left alone like a cottage in a vineyard, like
watch house in time of war, like a besieged city. And except the
Lord of Hosts had left unto us a few alive: we should have been as
Sodoma, and like unto Gomorra.
Hear the word of the Lord ye tyrants of Sodoma: and hearken
unto the law of our God, thou people of Gomorra. Why offer ye so
many sacrifices unto me? I am discontent for the burntofferings of
wethers, and with the fatness of fed beasts. I have no pleasure in
the blood of bullocks, lambs, and goats. When ye appear before me,
who requireth you to tread within my porches? Offer me no more
oblations, for it is but lost labor. I abhor your incense. I may not
away with your new moons, your Sabbaths and solemn days. Your
fastings are also in vain. I hate your new holy days and fastings,
even from my very heart. They make me weary, I can not abide them.
Though ye hold out your hands, yet I turn my eyes from you. And
though you make many prayers, yet I hear nothing at all, for your
hands are full of blood.
Wash you, make you clean, put away your evil thoughts out of
my sight, cease from doing evil and violence. Learn to do right, let
the widows complaint come before you. Now go to ( sayeth the Lord )
we well walk together. Is it not so? Though your sins be as red as
scarlet, shall they not be whiter than snow? And though they were
like purple, shall they be not like white wool? Is it not so? If ye
be loving and obedient, ye shall enjoy the best thing that groweth
in the land. But if ye be obstinate and rebellious, ye shall be
devoured with the sword: for thus the Lord hath promised with his
own mouth.
How happeneth it then that the righteous city ( which was full
of equity ) is become unfaithful as an whore? righteousness dwelt in
it, but now murder. Thy silver is turned to dross, and thy wine
mixed with water. Thy princes are traitors and companions of
thieves. They love gifts altogether, and follow rewards. As for the
fatherless, they help him not to his right, neither will they let
the widows causes come before them. Therefore speaketh the Lord God
of Hosts the mighty one of Israel: Ah, I must ease me of mine
enemies, and avenge me upon them. And therefore shall I lay my hand
upon thee, and burn out thy dross from the finest and purest, and
put out all the lead, and set thy judges again as they were
sometime, and thy Senators as they were from the beginning. The shalt thou be called the righteousness city, the faithful city. But
Sion shall be redeemed with equity, and her captivity with
righteousness. For the transgressors and ungodly, and such as are
become unfaithful unto the Lord, must altogether be utterly
destroyed.
And except ye be ashamed of the oaks trees wherein ye have so
delighted, and of the gardens that ye have chosen: Ye shall be as an
oak whose leaves are fallen away, and as a garden that hath no
moistness. And as for the glory of these things, it shall be turned
to straw, and he that made them to a spark. And they shall both burn
together, so that no man shall be able to quench them.

Chapter 2
Moreover this was the word that
was opened unto Esaie the son of Amos, upon Juda and Jerusalem. It
will be also in the process of time: That the hill where the house
of the Lord is builded, shall be the chief among the hills, and
shall be exalted above all little hills. And all the Heathen shall *preace
unto him. And the multitude of the people shall go unto him,
speaking thus one unto another: up, let us go up to the hill of the
Lord, and to the house of the God of Jacob: that he may show us his
way, and that we may walk in his paths. For the law shall come out
of Sion, and the word of God from Jerusalem, and shall give sentence
among the Heathen, and shall reform the multitude of people: So that
they shall break their swords and spears, to make scythes, sicles
and saws thereof. From that time forth shall not one people lift up
weapon against another, neither shall they learn to fight from
thensforth. It is to thee that I cry ( O house of Jacob ) up, let us
walk in the light of the Lord. But thou art scattered abroad with
thy people ( O house of Jacob ) for ye go far beyond your fathers,
whether it be in Sorcerers ( who ye have as the Philistines had ) or
in *calkers of mens births, whereof ye have too many. As soon as
your land was full of silver and gold, and no end of your treasure:
so soon as your land was full of strong horses and no end of your
chariots: Immediately was it full of Idols also, even works of their
own hands, which yee yourselves have fashioned, and your fingers
have made. There kneeleth a man, there falleth the man down before
thee, so that thou canst not bring him away from thence.
And therefore get thee soon in to some rock, and hide thee in
the ground from the sight of the fearful judge, and from the glory
of his Majesty: Which casteth down the high looks of presumptuous
persons, and bringeth low the pride of man, and he only shall be
exalted in that day. For the day of the Lord of Hosts shall go over
all pride and presumption, upon all them that exalt themselves, and
shall bring them all down: upon all high stout Cedar trees of
Libanus, and upon all the oaks of Basan, upon all high hills, and
upon all stout mountains, upon all costly towers, and upon all
strong walls, upon all ships of the sea, and upon everything that is
glorious and pleasant to look upon.
And it shall bring down the pride of man, and lay mans
presumptuousness full low, and the Lord shall only have the victory
in that day. But the Idols shall utterly be rooted out. Men shall
creep into holes of stone, and into caves of the earth, from the
sight of the fearful judge, and from the glory of his majesty: what
time as he shall make him up to shake the earth. *Then, then, shall
cast away his gods of silver and gold, (which he nevertheless had
made to honor them) unto Moles and *Backs; that he may better creep
into the caves and rocks, and into the clefts of hard stones, from
the sight of the fearful judge and for the glory of his Majesty.
*preace (proclaim) *calkers of mens births,( astrologers)

Chapter 3
Every man can *eschue a person
moved to anger, for what he doth wisely? Even so shall the Lord of
Hosts take away from Jerusalem and from Juda, all possessions and
power, all meat and drink, the captain and the soldier, the judge
and the prophet, the wise and the aged man, the worshipful of fifty
year old, and the honorable: the Senators, and the men of
understanding: the masters of crafts and orators. And I shall give
you children to be your princes,( sayeth the Lord ) and babes shall
have the rule of you. One shall ever be doing violence and wrong to
another. The boy will presume against the elder, and the vile person
against the honorable. Ye when one shall take a friend of his own
kindred by the bosom, and say: Thou hast clothing, thou shalt be our
head, for thou mayest keep us from this fall and peril.
Then shall he swear and say: I can not help you. Moreover,
there is neither meat nor clothing in my house, make me no ruler of
the people. For Jerusalem and Juda must decay, because both their
words and counsel are against the Lord, they provoke the presence of
his Majesty unto anger. The changing of their countenance betrayeth
them, yee they declare their own sins themselves, as the Sodomites,
and hide them not. Woe be unto their souls, for they shall be
heavily rewarded. Then shall they say: O happy are the godly, for
they may enjoy the fruits of their studies. But woe be unto the
ungodly and unrighteous for they shall be rewarded after their
works. O my people, *ribaudes oppress thee, and women have rule of
thee. O my people, thy leaders deceive thee, and tread out the way
of thy footsteps. The Lord is here to commune of the matter, and
standeth to give judgement with the people. The Lord shall come
forth to reason with the Senators and princes of his people, and
shall say thus unto them: It is ye that have burnt up my vineyard,
the robbery of the poor is in your house. Wherefore do ye oppress my
people, and marred the faces of the innocents? thus shall the Lord
God of Hosts revile them.
Moreover thus sayeth the Lord: Seeing the daughters of Sion
are become so proud, and come in with stretched out necks, and with
vain wanton eyes: seeing they come in tripping so nicely with their
feet: Therefore shall the Lord shave the heads of the daughters of
Sion, and make their beauty bare in the day. In that day shall the
Lord take away the gorgeousness of their apparel, and spangles,
chains, *partlets, and collars, bracelets and hooves, that goodly
flowered wide and boarded raiment, brushes and head bands, rings and
garlands, holy day clothes and veils, kerchiefs and pins, glasses
and smocks, bonnets and *taches
And instead of good smell there shall be stink among them. And
for their girdles there shall be loose bands. And for well set hair
there shall be baldness. Instead of a stomacher, a sackcloth, and
for their beauty witherdness and *son burning. Their husbands
and their mighty men shall perish with the sword in battle.
*eschue (avoid, escape) *ribaudes ( extortioners :MN). *partlets =
ruffled covering for the neck. *taches = buckles, clasps, fasteners.

Chapter 4
At that time their gates shall
mourn and complain, and they shall sit as desolate flock upon the
earth. Then shall seven wives take hold of one man, and say: We will
lay all our meat and clothing together in common, only that we may
be called thy wives, and that this shameful reproof be taken from
us. After that time shall the branch of the Lord be beautiful and
mighty, and the fruit of the earth shall be fair and pleasant for
those Israelites that shall spring thereof. Then shall the remnant
in Sion and the remnant in Jerusalem be called holy: namely all such
as are written among the living at Jerusalem: What time as the Lord
shall wash away the desolation of the daughters of Sion, and purge
the blood out from Jerusalem with the wind of his smoke and fire.
Moreover upon all the dwellings of the hill of Sion and upon their
whole congregation, shall the Lord provide a cloud and smoke by day,
and the shining of a flaming fire by night: for all their glory
shall be preserved. And Jerusalem shall be a tabernacle for a shadow
because of heat in the day time, and place and refuge where a man
may keep him for weather and rain.

Chapter 5
Now will then, I will sing my
beloved friend a song of his vineyard. My beloved friend hath a
vineyard in a very fruitful plenteous ground. This he hedged, this
he walled round about, and planted it with goodly grapes. In the
midst of it builded he a tower, and made a wine press therin. And
afterward when he looked that it should bring him grapes, it brought
forth thorns. I show you now my cause ( O ye Citizens of Jerusalem
and whole of Juda ) : Judge, I pray you, betwixt me and my vineyard.
What more could have been done for it, that I have not done?
Wherefore hath it given thorns, where I looked to have grapes of it?
Well, I shall tell you how I will do with my vineyard: I will
take the hedge from it, that it may perish, and break down the wall,
that it may be trodden under foot. I will lay it waste, that it
shall neither be twisted nor cut, but bear thorns and briers. I will
also forbid the clouds, that they shall not rain upon it. As for the
vineyard of the Lord of Hosts it is the house of Israel, and whole
Juda his fair planting. Of these he looked for equity, but see there is
wrong: for righteousness, lo, It is but misery.
Woe unto you that join one house to another, and bring one
land so nigh unto another, till ye can get no more ground. Will ye
dwell upon the earth alone? The Lord of Hosts roundeth me thus in
mine ear: shall not many greater and more gorgeous houses be so
waste, that no man shall dwell in them? And ten acres of vines shall give but
a Quart, and thirty bushels of feed shall give but three.
Woe unto them that rise up early to use themselves in
drunkenness, and yet at night are more superfluous with wine. In
those companies are harps and lutes, tabrets and pipes, and wine.
But they regard not the work of the Lord, and consider not the
operation of his hands. Therefore cometh my folk also in captivity,
because they have no understanding. Their glory shall be mixed with
hunger, and their pride shall be marred for thirst. Therefore gapeth
hell, and openeth her mouth marvelous wide: that pride boasting and
wisdom, with such as rejoice therin, may descend into it.
Thus shall man have a fall, he shall be brought low, and the
high looks of the proud layed down. But the Lord of Hosts, that holy
God: shall be exalted and untouched, when he shall declare his
equity and righteousness after this manner: Then shall the lambs eat
their appointed fodder, and shall feed plentiously in the mountains.
Woe be unto vain persons, that draw wickedness unto them, as it were
with a cord: and sin, as it were with a cart rope. Which use to
speak on this manner: Let him make hast now, and go forth with his
work, that we may see it. Let that counsel of the holy one of Israel
come, and draw nye, that we may know it.
Woe be unto them that call evil good, and good evil: which
make darkness light, and light darkness, that make sour sweet, and
sweet sour. Woe be unto them that are wise in their own sight, and
think themselves to have understanding. Woe be unto them that are
conning men to sup out wine and expert to set up drunkenness. These
give sentence with the ungodly for rewards, but condemn the just
cause of the righteous.
Therefore like as the fire licketh up the straw, as the flame
consumeth the stubble: Even so ( when their root is full ) their
blossom shall vanish away as dust or smoke: for they despise the law
of the Lord of Hosts, and blaspheme the word of the holy maker of
Israel.
Therefore is the wrath of the Lord kindled also against his
people, and he shaketh his hand at them: yee he shall smite so, that
the hills shall tremble. And their carcasses shall lie in the open
streets, like mire. After all this, the wrath of God shall not
cease, but he shall stretch his hand wider. And he shall give a
token unto a strange people, and call unto them in a far country:
and behold, they shall come hastily with speed. There is not one
faint or feeble among them, no not a sluggish or slippery person.
There shall not one of them put off the girdle from his loins, *ner
loose the latchet of their shoe. Their arrows are sharp, and their
bows bent. Their horses hoofs are like flint, and their cart wheels
like a stormy wind. Their cry is as it were of a lion, and the
roaring of them like lions whelps. They shall roar, and haunch up
the prey, and no man shall recover it or get it from them. In that
day they shall be fierce upon them, as the sea. And if we look unto
the land, behold, it shall be all darkness and sorrow. If we look to
heaven: behold, it shall be dark with careful desperation.
There shall not one of them put off the girdle from his loins, Ephes
6:4 RN) *ner loose the latchet of their shoe.

Chapter 6
In the year that king Uzziah
died I saw the Lord sitting upon an high and glorious seat, and his
train filled the *palace. From above flakerd the Seraphins, where of
every one had six wings. With two each covered his face, with two
his feet, and with two he did fly. They cried also each one to other
on this manner: holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of Hosts. The whole
world is full of his glory. Yee the guests and the doorchecks moved
at their crying, and the house was full of smoke. Then I said: O woe
is me. For I am astonished: that I (which am a man of unclean lips,
and dwell among people that hath unclean lips also) should see the
King and Lord of Hosts with mine eyes.
Then flew one of the Seraphins unto me, having a hot coal in
his hand, which he had taken from the altar with the tongs, and
touched my mouth, and said: Lo, this hath touched thy mouth, and
thine unrighteousness is taken away, and thy sin is *forgiven. After
this I heard the voice of the Lord talking advisement on this
manner: Whom shall I send, and who will be our messenger? Then I
said: Here am I, send me. And so he said: Go, and tell this people:
Ye shall hear indeed, but ye shall not understand, ye shall plainly
see, and not perceive. Harden the heart of this people, stop their
ears, and shut their eyes, that they see not with their eyes, hear
not with their ears, and understand not with their heart, and
convert and be healed.
Then spake I: Lord, how long? And he answered: Until the
cities be utterly without inhabitantors, and the houses without men,
till the land be also desolate, and lie unbuilded. For the Lord
shall take the men far away, so that the land shall lie waste.
Nevertheless, the tenth part shall remain therin, for it shall
convert and be fruitful, And likewise as the Terebintes and Oak
trees bring forth their fruits, so shall the holy seed have fruit.

Chapter 7
It happened in time of Ahaz the
son of Joatham, which was the son of Oziah, king of Juda: that Razin
the king of Syria, and Phakeh the son of Romaliah, King of Israel:
went up toward Jerusalem to besiege it, but won it not. Now when the
house of David (that is Ahaz) heard word thereof, that Syria and
Ephraim were confederate together: His heart quaked ( yee and the
hearts also of his people) like as a tree in a field, that is moved
with the wind.
Then said God unto Esia, Go meet Ahaz,
( thou and thy son Sear Jasub ) at the head of the over pole, in the foot path by the
fullers ground, and say unto him, take heed to thyself and be still,
but fear not, neither be fainthearted, for these two tails: that is:
for these two smoking firebrands, the wrath and furriousness of
Rezin in the Sirian and Romelies son: because that the King of Siria,
Ephraim, and Romelies son have wickedly conspired against thee,
saying: We will go down into Juda, vex them, and bring them under
us, and set a king there, even the son of Tabeel. For thus saith the
Lord God there to, It shall not so go forth, neither shall it come
to pass: For the head city of the Sirians is Damascus, but the head
of Damascus is Razin. And after five and threescore year, shall
Ephraim be no more a people. And the chief city of Ephraim is Samaria, but
the head of Samaria is Remaliahs son. And if ye believe not, there
shall no promise be kept with you.
Moreover, God spake unto Ahaz, saying: require a token of the
Lord thy God, whether it be toward the depth beneath or toward the
height above. Then said Ahaz: I will require none, neither will I
tempt the Lord. Then the Lord answered: Then hear too, ye house of
David: Is it not enough for you, that ye be grievous unto men, but
ye must grieve my God also? And therefore the Lord shall give you a
token of himself: Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son,
and shall call his name Emanuel. Butter and honey shall he eat, that
he may know *the evil and choose the good. But or ever the child
come to knowledge, to eschue the evil and chose the good: The land (
that thou art so afraid for ) shall be desolate of both her kings.
The Lord also shall send a time upon thee, upon thy people,
and upon thy fathers house, ( such as never came since the time that
Ephraim departed from Juda ) through the king of the Assyrians. For
at the same time shall the Lord *whistle for the flys that are about
the water of Egypt, and for the *Bees in the Assirian land. These
shall come, and shall light all in the valleys, and in the vaults of
stone, upon all green things, and in all corners.
At the same time shall the Lord shave the hair of the head and
feet and the beard clean off, with the razor that he shall pay them
withal beyond the water: namely, with the King of the Assirians. At
that time a man shall live with a cow, and two sheep. Then because
of the abundance of milk, he shall make butter and eat it. So that
every one that remaineth in the land, shall eat butter and honey. At
the same time all vineyards ( though there be a thousand vines in
one, and were sold for a thousand silverlings ) shall be turned to
briers and thorns. Like as they shall come into the land with arrows
and with bows, so shall all the land become briers and thorns. And
as for all hills that are now hewn down, thou shalt not come upon
them, for fear of briers and thorns. But the cattle shall be driven
thither, and the sheep shall feed there.

Chapter 8
Moreover the Lord said unto me:
Take thee a great leaf, and write in it, as men do with a pen, *that
he speed him to rob, and haste him to spoil. And immediately I
called unto me faithful witnesses, Uriah the priest, and Zachariah
the son of *Barachiah. After that I went unto the Prophetess, that
now had conceived and born a son. Then said the Lord to me: give him
this name: Maherschalalhashbas, that is: *( a speedy robber: an
hasty spoiler ). For why, or ever the child shall have knowledge to
say: Abi and Im, ( that is father, and mother ): shall the riches of
Damascus and the substance of Samaria be taken away, through the
king of the Assirians.
The Lord spake also unto me, saying: For so much as this
people refuseth the still running water of Silo, and put their
delight in Razin and Romelies son: Behold the Lord shall bring
mighty and great floods of water upon them: namely, the king of the
Assirians with all his power. Which shall pour out his furriousness
upon every man, and run over all their banks. And shall break in
upon Juda, increasing in power, till he get him by the throat. He
shall fill also the wideness of the land with his broad wings, O
Emanuell. Go together ye people, and gather you, hearken to all ye
of far countries. Muster you, and gather you: muster you and gather
you, take your counsel together, yet must your counsel come to
naught: go in handle withal, yet shall it not prosper. Except
Emanuel: ( that is God) be with us. For the Lord chastised me, and
took me by the hand, and warned me, saying unto me: that I should
not walk in the ways of this people. He said moreover: round with
none of them, whosoever say: yonder people are bound together.
Nevertheless fear them not, neither be afraid of them, but sanctify
the Lord of Hosts, let him be your fear and dread. For he is the
sanctifying, a stone to stumble at , the rock to fall upon, a snare
and a net to both the houses: to Israel, and the inhabitors of
Jerusalem. And many shall stumble, fall, and be broken upon him: yee
they shall be snared and taken.
Now lay the witness together ( said the Lord ) and seal the
law with my disciples. Thus I wait upon the Lord that hath turned
his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look *unto him. But,
lo, I as for me, and the children which the Lord hath given me: we
are a token and a wonder in Israel, for the Lord of Hosts sake,
which dwelleth upon the hill of Sion.
And therefore if they say unto you: ask counsel at the
soothsayers, witches, charmers and conjurers, then make them this
answer: Is there a people any where, that asketh counsel at his God:
whether it be concerning the dead or the living. If any man want
light, let him look upon the law and testimony whether they speak
not after this meaning. If he do this he stumbleth and suffereth
hunger. And if he suffer hunger, he is out of patience, and
blasphemeth his king and his God. Then looketh he upward, and
downward to the earth, and behold, there is trouble and darkness
vexation is round about him, and the cloud of error. And out of such
adversity he shall not escape.
*that he speed him to rob, and haste him to spoil. (kjv and other
bibles of man = upon Mahershalalhashbaz.) *Barachiah. (kjv and other
bibles of man = Jeberechiah.) *( a speedy robber: an hasty spoiler
). (kjv and other bibles of man leaves this entire line out) and I
will look *unto (kjv and other bibles of man = for ) him.

Chapter 9
Even like as in time past it
hath been well seen, that the land of Zabulon and the land of
Nephtali ( where through the sea way goeth over Jordan in to the
land of Galilee ) was at the first in little trouble, but afterwards
sore vexed.
Nevertheless the people that have dwelt in darkness, shall see
a great light. As for them that dwell in the land of the shadow of
death, upon them shall the light shine. Shalt thou multiply the
people, and not increase the joy also? They shall rejoice before
thee even as men make marry in the harvest, and as men that have
gotten the victory, when they deal the spoil. For thou shalt break
the yoke of the peoples burden: the staff of his shoulder and the
rod of his oppressor, as in the day of Madian.
Moreover all *temerarious and seditious power ( yee where
there is but a coat filled with blood ) shall be burnt, and fed the
fire. For unto us a child shall be born, and unto us a son shall be
given. Upon his shoulders shall the kingdom lie, and he shall be
called with his own name: the wondrous giver of counsel, the mighty
God, the everlasting father, the prince of peace, he shall make no
end to increase the kingdom and peace, and shall sit upon the seat
of David and in his kingdom, to set up the same, to stablish it with
equity and righteousness, from thenceforth for evermore..This shall
the jealousy of the Lord bring to pass.
The Lord sent a word in to Jacob, the same is come in to
Israel. And the people also of Ephraim, and they that dwell in
Samaria, can say with pride and high stomachs, on this manner: The
tile work is fallen down, but we will build it with harder stones.
The Mulberry timber is broken, but we shall set it up again with
Cedar. Nevertheless, the Lord shall prepare Razin the enemy against
them, and so order their adversaries, that the Sirians shall lay
hold upon them before, and the Philistines behind, and so devour
Israel with open mouth.
After all this, the wrath of the Lord shall not cease, but yet
his hand shall be stretched out still. For the people turneth not
unto him, that chastiseth them, neither do they seek the Lord of
Hosts. Therefore the Lord shall root out of Israel both head and
tail, branch and twig in one day.
By the head, is understand the Senator and honorable man, and
by the tail, the Prophet that preacheth lies. For all they which
enforme the people that they be in a right cause, such be deceivers.
Such as men think also to be perfect among these, are but cast
away.
Therefore shall the Lord have no pleasure in their young men,
neither favor their fatherless and widows. For they are all together
hypocrites and wicked, and all their mouths speak folly. After all
this shall not the Lords wrath cease, but yet his hand is stretched
out still. For the ungodly burn, as a fire in the briers and thorns:
And as it were out of a fire in the wood or a ready bush, so
ascendeth the smoke of their pride.
For this cause shall the wrath of the Lord of Hosts fall upon
the land, and the people shall be consumed, as it were with fire, no
man shall spare his brother. If a man do turn him to the right hand,
he shall famish, or to the left hand to eat, he shall not have
enough. Every man shall eat the flesh of his own arm: Manasses shall
eat Ephraim and Ephraim Manasses, and they both shall eat Juda.
After all this shall not the Lords wrath cease, but yet shall his
hand be stretched out still.
.*temerarious as of teeming with activity, a street teeming with
pedestrians; a garden abounding with flowers; roofs blanketing a
city a highway crawling with carts; a house overflowing with guests;
a parade route swarming with spectators. RN
