They came to the edge of a great water and behind them rushed Pharaoh and all the hosts of the Egyptians.

Then my people ran on to the face of the water, and it bore them as though it were sound land.
Now the soldiers of the Pharaoh were following, but the gods of Egypt appeared, Amon, Osiris, Horus, Isis, Hathor, and the rest, and would have turned them back.

Still they refused to listen, and dragging the gods with them, rushed out upon the water.

Then darkness fell, and in the darkness sounds of wailing and of a mighty laughter.

It passed, the moon rose, shining upon emptiness.
