Thoth In the mean time Isis is still looking for the lost body of her
husband Osiris. She wanders for years, weeping and searching
for the casket. Often she hears rumors that a golden coffin has
been seen floating along the Nile by the inhabitants of one of the
villages. She keeps following the rumors and so she crosses the
border, Egypt and comes into the land of Byblos.
Here the rumors speak of a wonderful tree that suddenly had started
to grow on the shore, exactly on the borderline between land and
sea. This news reached Isis and she becomes hopeful to finally
find the body of her dead husband. Isis asks every man and
woman if they have seen coffin that contains Osiris. In the end
she learns that the coffin became entrapped in a tamarisk bush.
As if by magic the bush shot up and became a magnificent tree.
The towering tree enclosed the ornate box within its huge trunk.
Isis learns that the king of Byblos fell in love with this tree so
much that he had it cut down and made into a giant pillar to
support the roof of his palace. Now Isis knows for sure that the
coffin came ashore here. Because of the divine presence of the
Body of Osiris, the bush had sprouted and grown into a large
tree, which now supports the Palace of the King. Isis and Anubis
immediately travel to that palace. When they have arrived there
Isis tries to come into contact with personnel of the palace. She
meets the Queen’s maidens. She tells them she is an Egyptian
head dresser. She pleats their hair and she breaths, and the girls
get surrounded by a divine scent. This attracts the attention of
Queen Astarte and the queen took a liking to her and she asked
Isis to take care of her young son, the prince. In this way Isis and
her son Anubis are able to enter into the palace and they find the
Tree trunk.
Isis I agree, this must be the right place to look for the body of
my deceased husband. Look here to the surface of the
wood, I see the gold still glittering which is the remnant of
the coffin in which Osiris was captured. I will take on the
job that is offered to me by Queen Astarte. I will nurture
her child for her. This gives me the opportunity to be close
to the tree and the coffin. At last I will be near to my
husband.
Thoth speaks while Isis lays down the baby in the bed of straw..
Isis starts a ritual that needs to be done for 28 days and then the
child will shine eternal as a night star. To do this the child will
sleep amidst the flames while the Goddess transforms herself
into a swallow and flutters about mournfully chirping for her
dead husband. In the night she brings him to the pillar where the
coffin is hidden. There she lights a fire and speaks the magic
words she lays down
The sleeping boy in the flames. The fire starts to bum away
a1l that is human in him, but she does not watch over him,
she turns herself into a swallow and begins to fly around
the pillar, wailing and mourning over her dead husband.

Isis stands, walks to the moon altar, caresses the child, raises
it high so that everybody sees it, and puts it in the middle of the
circle of flames.
Astarte screams and goes to the moon altar and takes out the
child.
Isis You have broken the spell to make your child immortal. I
am Isis, Queen of Upper and Lower Egypt, Widow of
Osiris the King. This magic would have turned your child
into a god. But now his immortality is lost. I have come
to Byblos because the Pillar which upholds your palace
Incorporates- the coffin of my dead husband. I want to
have this Pillar, because Osiris deserves a proper funeral.
Thoth Then Isis instantly cut it the Pillar into pieces so that the
coffin was be taken out. Then she drenched all the pieces of
wood in oil, wrapped them in [me linen and asked the queen to
keep them in the temple of Byblos.
Then she left Byblos by boat, and headed for Egypt. The wood of the
Tree remains in Biblos as a token of this divine mystery, which repeats
itself in Zep Tepi for ever and ever.
Thoth. The Ritual is closed, the Waters of the Moon are at rest
and the Tamarisk Tree will grow near to the shores of the
oceans to remind of this mystery.
