incantations, <strong>the</strong> cutting of roots, <strong>and</strong> taught <strong>the</strong>m (about) plants. And <strong>the</strong> women became<br />
pregnant <strong>and</strong> gave birth to great giants whose heights were three hundred cubits. These (giants)<br />
consumed <strong>the</strong> produce of <strong>all</strong> <strong>the</strong> people until <strong>the</strong> people detested feeding <strong>the</strong>m. So <strong>the</strong><br />
