Lilith, who listened to it all unmoved, taking only an intellectual interest in the question, remarked that even the corn had more life than that; for, after its death, it rose again in the new crop.
Among the adversaries that assailed him was Lilith, the queen of Sheba. She lived at a great distance from his residence, it took her and her army three years to travel from her home to his. She fell upon his oxen and his asses, and took possession of them, after slaying the men to whose care Job had entrusted them. One man escaped alone.
Then, after a commonplace or two, good-byes were uttered and they separated Lilith and her party to catch the train for Mowbray, her late fellow-passenger to arrange for his own much longer journey. Having the compartment to themselves, one of the blue-eyed girls opened fire thus: "Lilith, who is he?" "Who?" "He." "Bless the child," laughed Lilith, "there were about half a hundred he's."
"Sooner or later all will be little ones, for all must sleep in my house! It is well with those that go to sleep young and willing! My husband is even now preparing her couch for Lilith. She is neither young nor quite willing, but it is well indeed that she is come." I heard no more. Mother and daughter had gone away together through the dark.

There was a wicked gleam in his eye as he spoke; and Lilith believed that he was only trying an experiment on Karl's nerves. He persisted that he had never seen any footprints of the sort before.
Thy reward will be that I will come to thee again when I have tempted Eve and made an end of her happiness. We shall repeople the world with sons and daughters more bright and beautiful and more supple than any that have ever been seen yet. All the same, Lucifer answered, not liking to part with his shape. But as his desire could not be gainsaid, he lent his shape to Lilith for an hour.
"None of your chaff!" said Richter. "Your face is honester than your tongue, and confesses what you cannot deny, that you would give your chance of salvation a small one to be sure, but all you've got for one peep at Lilith. Wouldn't you now, Lottchen?"
She smiled, and the odours of sandal, coreopsis, and aloes encircled his soul like the plaited strands of her glorious hair. She was that other Lilith, the only offspring of the old Serpent. On what storied fresco, limned by what worshipper of Satan, had these accursed lineaments, this lithe, seductive figure, been shown!
