"Salt sea-water or oil, it's all the same to you! Haven't I put my lamp out long ago? Doesn't the fire on the hearth give light enough? Are your eyes so drowsy that they don't see the dawn shining in upon us more and more brightly? The olives are not yet pressed, and the old oil is getting toward the dregs. Besides, you know how much fruit those abominable thieves have stolen. But sparrows will carry grain into the barn before you'll try to save your master's property!"

"Salt sea-water or oil, it's all the same to you! Haven't I put my lamp out long ago? Doesn't the fire on the hearth give light enough?

Besides, you know how much fruit those abominable thieves have stolen. But sparrows will carry grain into the barn before you'll try to save your master's property!" So Semestre, the ancient house-keeper of Lysander of Syracuse, scolded the two maids, Chloris and Dorippe, who, unheeding the smoking wicks of their lamps, were wearily turning the hand-mills. Dorippe, the younger of the two, grasped her disordered black tresses, over which thousands of rebellious little hairs seemed to weave a veil of mist, drew from the mass of curls falling on her neck a bronze arrow, with which she extinguished the feeble light of both lamps, and, turning to the house-keeper, said:
Georg Moritz Ebers was a German Egyptologist and author who was born in Berlin on March 1, 1837, and died in Tutzing, Bavaria, on August 7, 1898. He bought the Ebers Papyrus, which is one of the oldest medical records from Egypt and is what made him famous. Georg Ebers was born in Berlin. He was the fifth child in a wealthy family of bankers and someone who made ceramics. After their father killed himself soon after Ebers was born, the children were raised by their mother alone. Smart people like Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, the Grimm Brothers, and Alexander von Humboldt liked going to the club that his mother ran. Ebers studied law in Gottingen and Oriental languages and history in Berlin. Egyptology was something he studied in depth, so in 1865 he was made Dozent in Egyptian language and antiquities at Jena. In 1868 he was made professor. In 1870, he was hired as a professor at Leipzig to teach these topics. He went to Egypt twice for research reasons. His first important work, Ägypten und die Bücher Moses, came out in 1867 and 1868. In 1874, he edited the famous medical tablet called tablet Ebers, which he had found in Thebes (H. Joachim, 1890).
