At another time a little girl sick became; the mother pennyroyal gave; 
not the little girl well became; much she grew sick, almost 
dead. The father went Immanuel to see; truly 
he found him; he said “Thou quickly come, well make 
my little girl. My little girl is very sick, almost dead; 
you come to my house.” Immanuel said 
“We two will go to the House.” Then went the two 
to the house. The mother came, she wept, said “Alas! alas! my 
little girl is dead.” Many women were weeping, said “Alas! 
the little girl is dead.” Immanuel said “Cease weeping. Not 
the girl is dead; only she is asleep.” All of them laughed; 
they verily her to be dead knew. Immanuel by hand took 
the girl, said “damsel arise.” Then the girl alive became, 
arose, words spoke. The mother, father also, very glad.
