"Crude thoughts and fierce forces are my state. I do not know who I am. Nor what I was. I cannot hear a sound.

'But how little,' said Menenhetet, 'can magic offer when the heart of the magician is heavy with fear? It is the first paradox of magic, and the worst, that it is always least available when we are most desperate. On this night, Isis was working within a cow's head not yet familiar with Herself. How could she measure the potency of a curse when instead of widening a delicate nostril, She had now to resolve a nose as large as a snout? With such unfamiliar instruments, the question is whether She was able to affect anything that night, at least until the moment she did. But, finally, she did. How else account for Set's stupidity in so exploding, oink oink,' said Menenhetet, 'that He fell asleep without knowing His semen was left in the enemy's hand. Can you believe it? He dreamed that his seed was taking knowledge, drop by drop, of the secret turns of Horus' bowels. I can promise you that Set snored with raucous expectation of orgies in years to come. He was certain that Horus could now keep no secret imparted to Him by Osiris. Sweet Dreams! said Menenhetet. 'Isis took one look at the hand of Her son, and exclaimed, 'The seed of Set is dense as the milk of silver,' and all of Set that had collected in the palm of Horus now was heavy, and brilliant like the moon. That liquid silver became our first ball of mercury, no more (and no less!) than a distillation of the seed of Set. Isis, now in full recovery of her wisdom, encouraged Horus to throw this gout of mercury into the swamp even if every weed in the march must turn poisonous. On the consequence, our native Egyptians, eating the meat of beasts who graze upon these weeds, have turned as spineless as mercury in their will, and so we are reduced from a great nation into one without character, yes, every ejaculation of our Gods that is not left in the body of another is the birth of a new disease. Much of Maat resides in this stern principle. Otherwise, Gods could sow Their seed everywhere" (1, 82).
