But Pharaoh went mad with rage.

Springing from his seat, he snatched at the double crown upon his head, and hurled it to the ground, and I noted that the golden uraeus band about it, rolled away, and rested upon Seti's sandalled foot.

He tore his robes and shouted: "At least our fate shall be your fate, Renegade, who have sold Egypt to the Hebrew witch in payment of her kisses.

Seize this man and his companions, and when we go down to battle against these Israelites to-morrow after the darkness lifts, let them be set with the captains of the van.

So shall the truth be known at last." Thus Pharaoh commanded, and Seti, answering nothing, folded his arms upon his breast and waited.
Men rose from their seats as though to obey Pharaoh and sank back to them again.
