‹ Section 9 Section 11 ›

arrived

at

a

very

advanced

age

.

He

did

not

,

however

,

labour

under

any

bodily

weakness

,

nor

had

his

sight

failed

,

nor

had

any

tooth

perished

from

his

mouth

.

In

mind

also

,

for

the

whole

time

of

his

life

,

he

never

wandered

;

but

like

a

boy

he

always

in

his

business

displayed

youthful

vigour

,

and

his

limbs

remained

unimpaired

,

and

free

from

all

pain

.

His

life

,

then

,

in

all

,

amounted

to

one

hundred

and

eleven

years

,

his

old

age

being

prolonged

to

the

utmost

limit

.
