It is wet even here.

Now go back into the cave, and let me lay this that I have got here for you in my arms, in the dry passage.

I bring you good news; to-morrow evening, when it is growing dusk, we start.

I have found out a vessel which will convey us to Klysma, and from thence I myself will conduct you to Alexandria.

In the sheepskin here you will find the dress and veil of an Amalekite woman, and if your traces are to be kept hidden from Phoebicius, you must accommodate yourself to this disguise; for if the people down there were to see you as I saw you to-day, they would think that Aphrodite herself had risen from the sea, and the report of the fair-haired beauty that had appeared among them would soon spread even to the oasis." "But it seems to me that I am well hidden here," replied Sirona.
