He also saw that the citywas extremely well fortified, and that there was no means whereby hecould effect an entrance into the city through the walls. Some of hisofficers advised him to throw up a mound of earth about the city, butthis counsel was rejected angrily by Piānkhi, for he had thought out asimpler plan. He ordered all his boats and barges to be taken to thequay of Memphis, with their bows towards the city wall; as the waterlapped the foot of the wall, the boats were able to come quite... close toit, and their bows were nearly on a level with the top of the wall. ThenPiānkhi's men crowded into the boats, and, when the word of command wasgiven, they jumped from the bows of the boats on to the wall, enteredthe houses built near it, and then poured into the city. They rushedthrough the city like a waterflood, and large numbers of the nativeswere slain, and large numbers taken prisoners. Next morning Piānkhi setguards over the temples to protect the property of the gods, then hewent into the great temple of Ptah and reinstated the priests, and theypurified the holy place with natron and incense, and offered up manyofferings.
