33 shown to be pits under ground by the trees growing over them. In Genesis, chap, xxxvii. , we read that Joseph was imprisoned by his brothers in a pit or dry well. But what was shut up in the Egyptian ark we are not told, and it is perhaps idle to conjecture ; but the only other portable prison or cage that we know of was the basket in later times carried by the priestesses in procession through the streets of Alexandria, which seems to have held a live serpent, the emblem of sin and evil, an...d the great enemy of the human race. The quarrel between mankind and the great serpent is the subject of many of the sculptures in the tombs, and it always ends with the enemy being conquered and usually taken prisoner, though sometimes killed. Clemens of Alexandria describes the employments of some of the priests when he tells us which parts of the books of Thoth each undertook to learn and to repeat by heart. The Singer who walked first in the sacred pro- cessions bearing the symbols of music, could repeat the books of hymns and the rules for the king's life.
