"Thy second woman, Sarah the Jewess."
"Has she run away too?"
"She died in prison."
"O gods! Who dared imprison her?"
"She confessed that she killed thy son."
"What?"
A great cry was heard at the prince's feet: the Libyan prisoners captured in battle were marching past, and at the head of them the sorrowful Tehenna.
Ramses had at that moment a heart so full of pain that he nodded to
Tehenna, and said,
"Stand near thy father Musawasa, so that he may touch thee, and see thee living."
At these words all the Libyans and the whole army gave forth a mighty shout; but the prince did not hear it.
