008:034 "Pray, of whom is the Prophet speaking?" inquired the eunuch;
"of himself or of some one else?"
008:035 Then Philip began to speak, and, commencing with that same

008:039 But no sooner had they come up out of the water than the Spirit of
the Lord caught Philip away, and the eunuch did not see him again.
With a glad heart he resumed his journey;
008:040 but Philip found himself at Ashdod. Then visiting town
