Morning Star

CHAPTER XVIII
13/14

Hearken you people of Egypt--not for a little end have these things come to pass, but that ye may learn that there is design in heaven, and justice upon earth, and, after justice, judgment.

Pharaoh, the good servant of the gods, was basely murdered by his own kin whom he trusted.

Neter-Tua, his daughter, and daughter of Amen, was condemned to shame, Rames of the royal race was sent forth to danger or to death, far from her he loved, and who loved him by that divine command which rules the hearts of men.

This is the command of the gods--Let these twain be wed and take Egypt as their heritage, and call down upon it peace and greatness.

But as for these murderers and wizards"-- and he pointed to Abi, to Kaku, and to Merytra--"let them be placed in the sanctuary of Amen, to await what he shall send them." So spoke Kepher the Messenger, and departed whence he came, nor in that generation did any see him more.
Then they took up Abi, Kaku, and Merytra, and cut their bonds.
