So Anthea hastily uttered the word of power, without which the charm could do nothing. 'Ur Hekau Setcheh! she said softly, and as she spoke the charm grew into an arch so tall that the top of it was close against the bedroom ceiling.
The voices were those of the Egyptian Priest and the learned gentleman, and the voices were eager, alive, thrilled with hope and the desire of great things. So Jane took the Amulet from Robert and held it up between the two men, and said, for the last time, the word of Power. 'Ur Hekau Setcheh. The perfect Amulet grew into a double arch; the two arches leaned to each other making a great A.
'Will you tell it us? 'The name, said the gentleman, 'is Ur Hekau Setcheh. 'Ur Hekau Setcheh, repeated Cyril. 'Thanks awfully. I do hope we haven't taken up too much of your time. 'Not at all, said the gentleman. 'And do let me entreat you to be very, very careful of that most valuable specimen.
But Robert, who was excited by the music, and the flaring torches, and the applause and the opportunity, spoke up before the others could stop him. 'Give us the half of the Amulet that has on it the name UR HEKAU SETCHEH, he said, adding as an afterthought, 'O King, live-for-ever. As he spoke the great name those in the pillared hall fell on their faces, and lay still.
'UR HEKAU SETCHEH, she cried in a fervent voice. 'Oh, Nisroch, servant of the Great Ones, come and help us! There was a waiting silence. Then a cold, blue light awoke in the corner where the straw was and in the light they saw coming towards them a strange and terrible figure.
'Ur Hekau Setcheh, Jane said the Name of Power. And instantly the light went out, and all the sounds went out too, so that there was a silence and a darkness, both deeper than any darkness or silence that you have ever even dreamed of imagining. It was like being deaf or blind, only darker and quieter even than that. Then out of that vast darkness and silence came a light and a voice.
It was Nisroch. 'Nisroch! echoed the Queen. 'You are indeed magicians. Jane sat up, blinking stupidly. 'Hold It up, and say the word, cried Cyril, catching up the Psammead, which mechanically bit him, but only very slightly. 'Which is the East? asked Jane. 'Behind me, said the Queen. 'Why? 'Ur Hekau Setcheh, said Jane sleepily, and held up the charm.
