The prince will rent me for three years lands in the provinces of Takens, Ses, Neha-Meut, Neha-Pechu, in Sebt-Het, in Habu." "Rent them?" said the prince. "That does not please me." "Whence then am I to get back my money, my thirty talents?" "Wait! I must ask the inspector of my granaries how much these properties bring me in yearly." "Why so much trouble, worthiness? What does the inspector know?
"Thou, O treasurer, wilt distribute one hundred talents among the police, the overseers of the laborers, and the mayors in the provinces of Seft, Neha-chent, Nehapechu, Sebt-Het, Aa, Ament, and Ka. In those same places you will give the innkeepers and the keepers of dramshops barley, wheat, and wine, whatever is at hand, so that common men may have meat and drink free of charge.
Well, at command of the heir I will drop out the land of Ses. The prince is not sure of my heart yet? Well, I will yield Sebt-Het also. But what use for an inspector here? Will he teach the prince wisdom? O Astoreth! I should lose sleep and appetite if such an overseer, subject and slave, dared to correct my gracious lord.
