ile the account in _Exodus_ with any extant historical account of
Egypt (_Exod._ xiv. 28). Was it Thothmes III.?
5. The Pharaoh who protected Hadad (1 _Kings_ xi. 19).
6. The Pharaoh whose daughter Solomon married (1 _Kings_ iii. 1; ix.
16). I think this was Psusennes I. (dynasty xxi.).
_Pharaohs after Solomon's time_ (mentioned in the Old Testament):
1. Pharaoh Shishak, who warred against Rehoboam (1 _Kings_ xiv. 25, 26;
2 _Chron._ xii. 2).
2. The Pharaoh called "So" king of Egypt, with whom Hoshea made an
alliance (2 _Kings_ xvii. 4).
3. The Pharaoh who made a league with Hezekiah against Sennacherib. He
is called Tirh[=a]kah (2 _Kings_, xviii. 21; xix. 9).
4. Pharaoh Necho, who warred against Josiah (2 _Kings_ xxiii. 29, etc.).
5. Pharaoh Hophra, the ally of Zedekiah. Said to be Pharaoh Apries, who
was strangled, B.C. 569-525 (_Jer._ xliv. 30).
[Asterism] Bunsen's solution of the Egyptian dynasties cannot possibly
be correct.
_Pharaohs noted in romance:_
1. Cheops, or Suphis I., who built the great pyramid (dynasty iv.).
2. Cephren[^e]s, or Suphis II., his brother, who built the second pyramid.
3. Mencher[^e]s, his successor, who built the most beautiful, though not
the largest, of the pyramids.
4. Memnon, or A-menophis III., whose musical statue is so celebrated
(dynasty xviii.).
5. Sethos I. the Great, whose tomb was discovered by Belzoni (dynasty
xix.).
6. Sethos II., called "Proteus," who detained Helen and Paris in Egypt
(dynasty xix.).
7. Phu[=o]ris or Thu[=o]ris, who sent aid to Priam in the siege of Troy.
8. Rampsin[=i]tus or Rameses N[=e]ter, the miser, mentioned by Herodotus
(dynasty xx.).
9. Osorthon IV. (or Osorkon), the Egyptian Hercul[^e]s (dynasty xxiii.).
=Pharaoh's Daughter.= The daughter of Pharaoh, who brought up Moses, was
Bathia.
=Pharaoh's Wife=, Asia, daughter of Moz[^a]hem. Her husband cruelly
tormented her because she believed in Moses. He fastened her hands and
feet to four stakes, and laid a millstone on her as she lay in the hot
sun with her face upwards; but angels shaded off the sun with their
wings, and God took her, without dying, into Paradise.--Sale, _Al
Kor[^a]n_, lxvi. note.
Among women, four have been perfect; Asia, wife of Pharaoh; Mary,
daughter of Imr[`a]n; Khad[^i]jah, daughter of Khowailed, Mahomet's
first wife; and F[^a]tima, Mahomet's daughter.--Attributed to
Mahomet.
