²And as he went, he remembered the words of Raphael, and took the ashes of the perfumes, and put the heart and the liver of the fish thereupon, and made a smoke therewith.

³The which smell when the evil spirit had smelled, he fled into the utmost parts of Egypt, and the angel bound him.

⁴And after that they were both shut in together, Tobias rose out of the bed, and said, Sister, arise, and let us pray that God would have pity on us.

⁵Then began Tobias to say, Blessed are you, O God of our fathers, and blessed is your holy and glorious name for ever; let the heavens bless you, and all your creatures.

⁵Then began Tobias to say, Blessed art thou, O God of our fathers, and blessed is thy holy and glorious name for ever; let the heavens bless thee, and all thy creatures.

⁶You made Adam, and gave him Eve his wife for an helper and stay: of them came mankind: you have said, It is not good that man should be alone; let us make to him an aid like to himself.

⁸And she said with him, Amen.

⁹So they slept both that night. And Raguel arose, and went and made a grave,

¹⁰Saying, I fear lest he also be dead.

¹¹But when Raguel was come into his house,

¹²He said to his wife Edna. Send one of the maids, and let her see whether he be alive: if he be not, that we may bury him, and no man know it.

¹³So the maid opened the door, and went in, and found them both asleep,

¹⁴And came forth, and told them that he was alive.

¹⁵Then Raguel praised God, and said, O God, you are worthy to be praised with all pure and holy praise; therefore let your saints praise you with all your creatures; and let all your angels and your elect praise you for ever.
