40 When Isis recovered Osiris and was watching Horus grow up Cf. 357 c-f, supra. as he was being made strong by the exhalations and mists and clouds, Typhon was vanquished but not annihilated Cf. 358 d, supra.; for the goddess who holds sway over the Earth would not permit the complete annihilation of the nature opposed to moisture, but relaxed and moderated it, being desirous that its tempering potency should persist, because it w as not possible for a complete world to exist, if the fiery element left it and disappeared. Even if this story were not current among them, one would hardly be justified in rejecting that other account, to the effect that Typhon, many ages ago, held sway over Osiris’s domain; for Egypt used to be all a sea, Cf. Herodotus, ii. 5; Diodorus, iii. 3, and i. 39. 11. and, for that reason, even to-day it is found to have shells in its mines and mountains. Cf. Herodotus, ii. 12. Moreover, all the springs and wells, of which there are many, have a saline and brackish water, as if some stale dregs of the ancient sea had collected there.
