Then these men assembled
Gathered together, and went in a body to Daniel's house; knowing
his times of prayer, and where, and in what manner, he used to
pray, to see if they could find him at it as aforetime; that so
they might have to accuse him with it. Saadiah says, they found a
girl, and asked her what Daniel was doing? she told him that
Daniel was on his knees, praying to his God in his chamber;
immediately they went, and found as she had said: and found
Daniel praying and making supplication before his
God;
they went into his house, and up into his chamber, the doors not
being locked, pretending perhaps business with him, and saw him
at his devotions; so that they were able, upon their own
knowledge, to bring in an accusation against him for breach of
the king's law, and prove it.
