It is not as hard as getting out of the temple with the two items.  You have
to move on the far side of the rug.  If you touch the rug, you are dead.  I
am not very good at arcade games, but I did this part easily.  I vaguely
remember moving up the right and then across the top, staying far from the rug.
I don't remember needing anything special, but drink water often.  Audrey
