They fasted so much that one would only eat [once] every two days, and another [once] every four days, and another [once] every seven days; another would eat no bread, and another would drink no water, and to speak briefly, they were adorned with every spiritual ex- cellence. 105. They used to relate that a certain old man entreated God and made supplication unto Him that the devils might appear to him, and it was revealed to him that " It is not '* necessary for thee to see them"; but the old ...man made en- treaty, saying, " Lord, Thou art able to hide me in Thy grace." Then God opened his eyes, and he saw them like bees sur- rounding a man, and they were gnashing their teeth upon him, and the angels of God were rebuking them and driving them away from men. 106. A man asked a certain old man from Thebes, and said unto him, "Tell me how I may be redeemed"; and the old man said unto him, "Three things [thou must do]. Sit in thy cell " and keep silence, and consider attentively thy sins, and keep "thyself wholly from judging any man, and accept no gift ' * from any man, and let thine hands be sufficient to find thee thy " food.
