Th'-ir treatment by- Pharaoh was always afterward in their memory an example of tyrannical oppression and injustice, for which the kinp and the people r,t Egypt had been made to uffer. The Egyptians had made their lives liittcr with hard bondage-, in the making of brick for Pharaoh's build- ings, and in the h.-.rd labor of cultivat- ing nii<! irritfatini; the fields.
