"But if I were heir to the throne, wouldst Thou come to me?" cried the prince. "O Jehovah!" exclaimed Sarah, dropping on her knees. From various points trumpets summoned, now urgently. "Let us run!" cried Tutmosis, in desperation. "Dost Thou not hear the alarm in the camp?" Ramses took the chain from his neck quickly and threw it on Sarah. "Give this to thy father. I will buy thee from him.
After the acts were read Herhor gave Tutmosis a goblet of wine. The bridegroom drank half, the bride moistened her lips with it, and then both burned incense before the purple curtain. Leaving the temple of Amon the young couple and their splendid retinue passed through the avenue of sphinxes to the pharaoh's palace.
Today they wish to deprive me of Sarah, and to-morrow they would take my power from me; I will show them that I shall not renounce anything." The prince was irritated. Tutmosis shrugged his shoulders, and remarked finally, "As a whirlwind sweeps a bird into a desert, so does anger cast a man on the shores of injustice.
Thou wilt have her to-morrow." After this conversation Tutmosis withdrew to the troops marching behind the suite, and vanished. Almost opposite the ravine along which the army had passed in the morning, some tens of steps from the road, stood a tamarind-tree which, though old, was not large. At this point a halt was mad by the guard which had preceded the suite.
"He is carrying out the policy of Ramses XII," said the queen. "But I am Ramses XIII," said the pharaoh impatiently. Tutmosis rose from his chair. "My lord," said he, "let me act. It is very dangerous to continue uncertainty in the government, and it would be folly and crime not to use this occasion.
"But a hyena is confined in a cage," whispered Tutmosis. "It is too early yet. I must be gracious to those men, at least till my father is buried or they might commit some indignity on his revered mummy, and destroy his spirit. But go tomorrow to Hiram and tell him to send me that priest of whom we have spoken." "That will be done.
When they fail to pay tribute, we are angry; when they pay, we forget our feeling. "But the Assyrians are something strange, something inimical, so that I shall not be happy till I can count one hundred thousand of their hands cut off by us." Never had Tutmosis seen the prince in such a state of feeling. A COUPLE of days later Ramses sent his favorite with a summons to Kama.
They are infamous! For them death is too slight a punishment." "Did the pharaoh sleep at home last night?" inquired the lady. Tutmosis was confused and dropped his eyes. "So he did not sleep at home?" "He did," answered the favorite with an uncertain voice. "That is not true. But tell me, at least, did he not wear a coat with white and blue stripes?" "I do not remember," whispered Tutmosis.
"I am Eunana, a centurion in the regiment of Isis. The unfortunate Eunana. Dost Thou not remember me, worthiness? More than a year ago at the maneuvers near Pi-Bailos I discovered the sacred scarabs." "Ah, that is thou!" interrupted Tutmosis. "But thy regiment is not in Abydos?" "The water of truth flows from thy lips.
"Tomorrow," said the pharaoh, "my troops will occupy the temples. But tell the commanders of regiments, let them know that it is my will, that the holy places must be inviolate, and that no one is to raise a hand on any priest in Egypt." "Even on Mefres and Herhor?" inquired Tutmosis. "Even on them.
