rior of the new college, and its library, which was called
"the hospital for the soul," was without an equal; in this academy,
which was the prototype of the later-formed museum and library of
Alexandria, sages and poets grew up whose works endured for thousands
of years--and fragments of their writings have even come down to us. The
most famous are the hymns of Anana, Pentaur's favorite disciple, and the
tale of the two Brothers, composed by Gagabu, the grandson of the old
Prophet.

Ameni did not remain in Thebes. Rameses had been informed of the way in
which he had turned the death of the ram to account, and the use he had
made of the heart, as he had supposed it, of the sacred animal, and
he translated him without depriving him of his dignity or revenues to
Mendes, the city of the holy rams in the Delta, where, as he observed
not without satirical meaning, he would be particularly intimate with
these sacred beasts; in Mendes Ameni exerted great influence, and in
spite of many differences of opinion which threatened to sever them, he
and Pentaur remained fast friends to the day of his death.

In the first court of the House of Rameses there stands--now broken
across the middle--the wonder of the traveller, the grandest colossus
in Egypt, made of the hardest granite, and exceeding even the well-known
statue of Memnon in the extent of its base. It represents Rameses the
Great. Little Scherau, whom Pentaur had educated to be a sculptor,
executed it, as well as many other statues of the great sovereign of
Egypt.

A year after the burning of the pavilion at Pelusium Rameri sailed to
the land of the Danaids, was married to Uarda, and then remained in his
wife's native country, where, after the death of her grandfather, he
ruled over many islands of the Mediterranean and became the founder of a
great and famous race. Uarda's name was long held in tender remembrance
by their subjects, for having grown up in misery she understood the
secret of alleviating sorrow and relieving want, and of doing good and
giving happiness without humiliating those she benefitted. THE END.
