s_ or _Daphnis_, the sister of _Pharaoh_'s
Queen, and before the Death of _David_ had by her a son called _Genubah_,
and this son was brought up among the children of _Pharaoh_: and among
these children was the chief or _first born of her mother's children_, whom
_Solomon_ married in the beginning of his Reign; and her _little sister
who_ at that time _had no breasts_, and her _brother who_ then _sucked the
breasts of his mother_, _Cant._ vi. 9. and viii. 1, 8: and of about the
same Age with these children was _Sesac_ or _Sesostris_; for he became King
of _Egypt_ in the Reign of _Solomon_, 1 _Kings_ xi. 40; and before he began
to Reign he warred under his father, and whilst he was very young,
conquered _Arabia_, _Troglodytica_ and _Libya_, and then invaded
_Ethiopia_; and succeeding his father Reigned 'till the fifth year of
_Asa_: and therefore he was of about the same age with the children of
_Pharaoh_ above-mentioned; and might be one of them, and be born near the
end of _David_'s Reign, and be about 46 years old when he came out of
_Egypt_ with a great Army to invade the East: and by reason of his great
Conquests, he was celebrated in several Nations by several Names. The
_Chaldaeans_ called him _Belus_, which in their Language signified _the
Lord_: the _Arabians_ called him _Bacchus_, which in their Language
signified _the great_: the _Phrygians_ and _Thracians_ called him
_Ma-fors_, _Mavors_, _Mars_, which signified _the valiant_: and thence the
_Amazons_, whom he carried from _Thrace_ and left at _Thermodon_, called
themselves the daughters of _Mars_. The _Egyptians_ before his Reign called
him their _Hero_ or _Hercules_; and after his death, by reason of his great
works done to the River _Nile_, dedicated that River to him, and Deified
him by its names _Sihor_, _Nilus_ and _AEgyptus_; and the _Greeks_ hearing
them lament _0 Sihor, Bou Sihor_, called him _Osiris_ and _Busiris_.
_Arrian_ [82] tells us that the _Arabians_ worshipped, only two Gods,
_Coelus_ and _Dionysus_; and that they worshipped _Dionysus_ for the glory
of leading his Army into _India_. The _Dionysus_ of the _Arabians_ was
_Bacchus_, and all agree that _Bacchus_ was the same King of _Egypt_ with
_Osiris_: and the _Coelus_, or _Uranus_, or _Jupiter Uranius_ of the
_Arabians_, I take to be the same King of _Egypt_ with His father _Ammon_,
according to the Poet:

_Quamvis AEthiopum populis, Arabumque beatis_
_Gentibus, atque Indis unus sit Jupite
