14.1 his heart swallowed the water. And Bata shuddered in all his limbs; and he began to look at his elder brother,

14.2 his heart being in the bowl; and Anubis, his elder brother, took the bowl of cool water in which the

14.3 heart of his younger brother was, and made him drink it; and his heart took its place in him, and he became as he had been; and the one embraced the

14.4 other; and each spoke with his companion; and Bata said to his

14.5 elder brother: "See, I am to become a great bull, marked in every beautiful color, whose nature no one will know; and you shall sit

14.6 on my back until the sun rises, and we shall be where my wife is, and I shall plead

14.7 my cause; and you shall bring me to the place where Pharaoh is; for every good thing shall be done for you;

14.8 and you shall be weighed out in silver and gold for bringing me to Pharaoh, life, prosperity, health! For I shall become a great wonder; and

14.9 they shall rejoice over me in the whole land; and you shall go to your town." And when the land grew bright

14.4 the one embraced the other, and each spoke with his companion. And Bata said to his

14.5 elder brother: "Look, I will become a great bull of every beautiful color, and no one will know its nature. You will

14.6 sit on my back until the sun rises, and we will be at the place where my wife is, so that I can answer for myself there. And

14.7 you will carry me to the place where Pharaoh is, for they will do every good thing for you. And

14.8 you will be paid in silver and gold for bringing me to Pharaoh, life, prosperity, health!, for I will become a great marvel, and
