11. When he did work for wages to live by, he was asked even by his brothers to work in the fields and he did it; but he knew not whether it was level or uneven, whether he did more or less;[11.] he swallowed, as it were ambrosia, whatever was given him, whether it was broken rice or other grain, oil-cakes, husk, the worm-eaten grain, the charred rice at the bottom of the pot, or anything like it.
