Read down to the center, where the pattern turns; then rise back out through its mirror.

A 18 And Joseph said unto them the third day, This do,
- B and live; for I fear God:
  - C 19 If ye be true men,
    - D let one of your brethren be bound in the house of your prison:
      - E go ye, carry corn for the famine of your houses:
    - D' 20 But bring your youngest brother unto me;
  - C' so shall your words be verified,
- B' and ye shall not die.
A' And they did so.
