Pakh. My son!
Satni [kneeling] Father!
Pakh. 'Twas you!—you, who came that way, despite the scarabs?
Satni. It was I.
Pakh. You know then some magic words, I do not doubt; but I—I who saw them—I must needs go purify myself before the prayer—to-day is the feast of the Nomination—did you know?
Satni. I knew—and Yaouma?
Pakh. She is here—in a little you shall see her.
Rheou. Satni!
Satni. You called me?
Rheou. Yes. Did not you see the two scarabs that lay upon your path?
