And they went and drew near, and the woman looked through a telescope and saw her husband, and her husband's father, and many people, and her brother among them. And she told the people, "Prepare food quickly." And they prepared, and laid the table. And they arrived and were invited in, and went inside, and they asked her the news. And she said, "Good." And she said to them, "Eat of the food. I come from a distance; when you have done with the food let me give you my news."

And they ate the food, till when they had finished she told them, from the beginning when she was born, she and her brother, till all were finished, as they had been. And the king's son went to embrace his wife, and they wept much, and all who were there wept, and they knew her brother was not good.

And the king asked her, "What shall we do to your brother?" And she said, "Only put him out of the town." And she dwelt with her husband till the end in joy.
