After some time, the Master of the tower came. And he was so tall that he surpassed the tower in height. And he was dressed in a robe of pure linen.
2He examined the construction with great care and touched each stone with a staff he had in his hand.
3And when he touched the stones, some became black, others moldy, others with crevices. And he ordered these stones to be taken from the tower and carried back to the place from which they came.
