And Mariamne said in Hebrew Alikaman, ikasame, marmari, mastranan, achaman, which means: O daughter of the father, my lady, who wast given as a pledge to the serpent, Christ is come to thee (and much more).

And Nicanora said: I am a Hebrew, speak to me in my fathers’ tongue. I heard of your preaching and was healed.

And they prayed for her.

But her tyrant husband came and said: How is this? who has healed you?

And she said: Depart from me, and lead a chaste and sober life.
