For a moment it lasted—a century or two at most; and after Alexander, in chasing kings hither and thither, had passed with his huntsmen that way, Isis and Osiris beckoned, and the descendants of the bedouin belonged to Goshen again, and so remained until Syria took them, lost them, reconquered them, and might have done with them utterly had not Juda Maccabæus flaunted his banner, and the Roman eagles pounced upon their prey.
She saw, too, that if the Soudan was ever reconquered, the knowledge of the tribal languages must be of immense benefit to her son; and she therefore insisted, from the first, that the woman should always talk to him in one or other of the languages that she knew. Thus Gregory, almost unconsciously, acquired several of the dialects used in the Soudan.

Years passed before Upper Egypt was reconquered, it being recovered only at the close of the century. Since then Egypt has remained under British control. There were serious troubles also in South Africa. The British of Cape Colony had pushed their way into the Boer settlement of the Transvaal, claiming jurisdiction over it.
He not only employed in the East a force more than sufficient to have defended Piedmont and reconquered Loraine; but he seemed to think that England and Holland were bound to reward him largely for neglecting their interests and pursuing his own. Spain already was what she continued to be down to our own time.
On the other hand France and England, by supplying Russia with rifles and ammunition, could strike a hard blow at Germany.

They further promised Bulgaria to give her the city of Adrianople and the territory around it which Turkey had reconquered.
