"But I warn you, you'll be at some disadvantage, sir, to compete with Mosaide in the knowledge of human antiquities. He has rediscovered monuments which were believed to have been lost; among others, the column of Seth and the oracles of Sambethe the daughter of Noah and the most ancient of the sybils."
Mosaide has re-established it, which Atrabis, Philo, Avicenne, Raymond Lully, P. de la Mirandola, Reuchlin, Henry More and Robert Flydd have been unable to do. Mosaide knows the number of the gold which corresponds to Jehovah in the world of spirits, and you must agree, gentlemen, that that is of infinite consequence."
And the predictions of Sambethe, Noah's daughter, I am really curious to know them; and M. Mosaide, who seems to be pretty sparing of his words, would oblige by uttering a few by words of mouth, because it is not possible for him, I am quite pleased to recognise it, to pronounce them by the more secret voice in which the ancient sybils habitually gave their mysterious responses."
And without flattering myself, my dear boy, I can say that I have been treated as a rake and a seducer in a tune solemn and ceremonious. When yonder Mosaide brought his imprecations to an end, I endeavoured to let him have my reply in two languages also. I replied in a mixture of Latin and French that he was a manslayer and a sacrilegist, who murdered tiny babes and stabbed sacred hosts.
"The Rabbi Mosaide, who lives in retirement with me, works on the re-establishment of the true sense of the Pentateuch. He is an old man very well versed in magic, who has lived seventeen years shut up in the crypt of the Great Pyramid, where he read the books of Toth.
When we reached our chambers we wished each other a very good-night. The Advent of Spring and its Effects We visit Mosaide Up till springtime my tutor and myself led a regular and secluded life. All the mornings we were at work shut up in the gallery, and came back here after dinner as if to the theatre.
And they astonished these beautiful but ignorant creatures by speaking to them of the stars with a knowledge acquired by seafaring. That's clear, I think, and I should like to know in what M. Mosaide could contradict me." Mosaide kept mute and M. d'Asterac, smiling again, said: "M. Coignard, you do not reason so badly, ignorant as you still are of gnosticism and the Cabala.
Withal I gave him a prodigious sketch of his outrages, and I threatened him with the terrors of justice both human and divine." "What do you say, my good master?" I nearly screamed, "yonder Mosaide, who has such a pretty niece, kills newborn babes and stabs hosts?" "I don't know anything about him," M. Jerome Coignard replied, "and besides cannot know it.
I am pardoned and return to Paris Again at the Queen Pedauque I go as Assistant to M. Blaizot Burning of the Castle of Sablons Death of Mosaide and of M. d'Asterac. From now onwards my life loses the interest which events had lent it, and my destiny, having again become in conformity with my character, offers nothing but ordinary occurrences.
When we tried again to bring my tutor to some explanation, he said: "Hate for Christians is deeply rooted in every Jew's heart, and yonder Mosaide is an execrable example of it.
