xi. published for the Syro-Egyptian Society of London. The cases, with the mummy they held, had been sent to England by Mr. Salt, the British Consul-General in Egypt. They were bought by Mr. Pettigrew, who afterwards sold them to Dr. Lee. The mummy, which was wrapped as usual in linen bandages, was unrolled by Mr. Pettigrew, before a large audience, in the lecture room of the Royal Institution on the 30th of May, 1S36. One of the pictures on the outer case represents the blue vault of heaveii, ...in the shape of the goddess Neith bending over and touching the ground with her arms. Under this vault is the deceased priest, with the two bodies into which death divides him. His earthly body is red, and is falling, his heavenly or spiritual body is blue and stands erect, raising its hands to heaven. This is a pictorial representation of the idea expressed many centuries later by St. Paul, " There is a natural body and there is a spiritual body (i Cor. xv. 44). It contrasts with the older representations in which the spirit returns to the mummy in the form of a bird.
