CHAP. XI.

6 Tobits mother spieth her sonne comming. 10 His father meeteth him at the doore, and recouereth his sight. 14 Hee praiseth God, 17 And welcommeth his daughter in Lawe.

¹After these things Tobias went his way, praising God that he had giuen him a prosperous iourney, and blessed Raguel, and Edna his wife, and went on his way till they drew neere vnto Nineue.

²Then Raphael said to Tobias, Thou knowest brother, how thou didst leaue thy father.

³Let vs haste before thy wife, and prepare the house.

⁴And take in thine hand the gall of the fish: so they went their way, and the dog went after them.

⁵Now Anna sate looking about towards the way for her sonne.

⁶And when she espied him comming, she said to his father, Behold, thy sonne commeth, and the man that went with him.

⁷Then said Raphael, I know, Tobias, that thy father will open his eyes.

⁸Therefore annoint thou his eies with the gall, and being pricked therewith he shall rub, and the whitenesse shall fall away, and he shall see thee.

⁹Then Anna ran forth, and fell vpon the necke of her sonne, and said vnto him, seeing I haue seene thee my sonne, from henceforth, I am content to die, and they wept both.

¹⁰Tobit also went forth toward the doore, and stumbled: but his sonne ran vnto him,

¹¹And tooke hold of his father, and he strake of the gall on his fathers eyes, saying, Be of good hope, my father.

¹²And when his eyes beganne to smart, he rubbed them.
