Which conceived, and bare a son; and seeing that it was beautiful, she hid him three months. But no longer hide him, she took an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put the child in it and put it in the flags by the river's edge. And his sister stood at a distance to see what would happen to him.
