Asclepiodorus is angry not with you, for he knows from Imhotep that you are taking care of a sick child but with Irene. Try and think where she can be.
"I will stay till my people go if they depart within twenty days," Rachel made answer. "But I must be gone ere thy father's servant returns." Masanath rebelled, sobbing. "Nay, weep not. The hour is distant. In that time, since these are days of miracles, thy sorrows and mine may have faded like a mist. Come, no more. Let us bide the workings of the good God."

It was half relined, half buried in desert sand when an enterprising inn-keeper had bought the elegant structure with the adjacent grove for a very moderate sum.

"What will become of us if Hathor does not help my husband?" "Will our goddess fetch the doctor?" asked the porter. "She has something to do besides curing sick starvelings. Besides, that is not her office. Go to Imhotep or to Chunsu the counsellor, or to the great Techuti herself, who helps the sick. There is no quack medicine to be got here." "I only want comfort in my trouble," said the woman.
