A visit to a papyrus shop

Int. Papyrus Center
Pyramids Mashaal Station
2 Zaglul St.
Giza - EGYPT
Tel : 3849542

A gift for Anne Kippin

"The shopkeeper asked my name
and wrote it in a cartouche surrounded by the hieroglyphic alphabet
I told him that my name was Anne - I thought that would be great in her school library
Anne if you read this before Christmas, Merry Christmas!"

"After that it was to the papyrus shop
They make their papyrus the way the ancient Egyptians did
and each piece has a guarantee"

"And then I got a free one
The shopkeeper asked my name
and wrote it in a cartouche surrounded by the hieroglyphic alphabet
I told him that my name was Anne - I thought that would be great in her school library
Anne if you read this before Christmas, Merry Christmas!"
