He received the poet with genuine friendliness, laid thesleeping leech on a mat, prepared a couch for Pentaur of leaves andskins, called his daughter to wash his feet, and offered him his ownholiday garment in the place of the rags that covered his body. Pentaur stretched himself out on the humble couch, which to him seemedsofter than the silken bed of a queen, but on which nevertheless he couldnot sleep, for the thoughts and fancies that filled his heart were toooverpowering and bewildering. T...he stars still sparkled in the heavens when he sprang from his bed ofskins, lifted Nebsecht on to it, and rushed out into the open air. Afresh mountain spring flowed close to the hunter's hut. He went to it, and bathed his face in the ice-cold water, and let it flow over his bodyand limbs. He felt as if he must cleanse himself to his very soul, notonly from the dust of many weeks, but from the rebellion and despondency, the ignominy and bitterness, and the contact with vice and degradation. When at last he left the spring, and returned to the little house, hefelt clean and fresh as on the morning of a feast-day at the temple ofSeti, when he had bathed and dressed himself in robes of snow-whitelinen.
