(513) 1168 To say: When father N. ascends to heaven among the gods who are in heaven; 1168 and when he stands by the great w`r.t; 1168 he hears the words of the blessed dead 1169 R` finds thee on the shores (or, lands) of the sky, in the ntiocean, in Nut. 1169 "He comes, who should come," say the gods. 1170 He gives thee his arm on (at) the 'iskn of the sky. 1170 "He comes who knows his place," say the gods. 1171 Pure one, assume thy throne in the boat of R`, 1171 that thou mayest sail the sky, that thou mayest mount above the ways (or, the far-off ways); 1171 that thou mayest sail with the imperishable stars; 1171 and that thou mayest voyage with the indefatigable (stars). 1172 Thou receivest the tribute of the evening boat; 1172 thou becomest a spirit in the D.t; 1172 thou livest in this sweet life in which the lord of the horizon lives. 1173 "Great Flood dwelling in Nut, who indeed has done this for thee?", 1173 say the gods who follow Atum. 1174 A greater than he hath done that for him, he who is north of the nti-ocean of Nut. 1174 He has heard his appeal; 'he has done for him what he said. 1174 He has received his, body in the court of the prince of Nun, 1174 before the Great Ennead.

(683) 2047 To say: Behold, this, is what they said to N., what the gods said to N. 2047 The word of the gods is fallen upon N.: 2047 "It is Horus, who comes forth from the Nile; it is the bull, which comes forth from the fortress; 2047 it is the d.t-serpent which comes forth from R`; it is the 'i`r.tserpent which comes forth from Set. 2048 Everything which will happen to N. happens likewise to Mdd.t'it, 2048 daughter of R`, who is on his two legs; 2048 everything which happens to N. happens likewise to Md, 2048 daughter of R`, who is on his two legs, 2049. for N. is Wd, son of Wd, who comes forth from Wd-t. 2050 N. is intact; N. is intact; (as true as) the eye of Horus is intact in Heliopolis; 2050 N. lives; N. lives; (as true as) the eye of Horus lives in Heliopolis." 55. THE DECEASED KING ASCENDS TO HEAVEN,

(571) 1466 To say: The mother of N., dweller in the lower sky, became pregnant with him; 1466 N. was given birth by his father Atum, 1466 before the sky came into being, before the earth came into being, 1466 before men came into being, before the gods were born, before death came into being. 1467 N. escapes the day of death, as Set escaped his day of death. 1467 N. belongs to your company (?), O gods of the lower sky, 1468 who cannot perish for their enemies. 1468 N. perishes not for his enemies. 1468 O ye who die not for a king--N. does not die for a king. 1468 O ye who die not for any death--N. does not die for any death. 1469 N. is an imperishable star, the great ---- of heaven in the house of erset. 1469 R` has taken N. to heaven, that N. may live, 1469 as he lives who enters into the west of the sky and goes forth at the east of the sky. 1470 He who is within his n.ti (two limits) has commended N. to him who is in his carrying-litter; 1470 they acclaim N., for N. is a star, 1470 The protection of R` is upon N. R` will not abandon the protection of N. 1471 Horus has set N. on his shoulders; 1471 he has assigned N. to Shu (who says): "My arms are exalted under Nut." 1471 R`, give thine arm to N.; Great God, give thy staff to N., 1471 that he may live for ever.

(675) 2000 To say: O N., "come in peace," says Osiris to thee; 2000 messenger of the Great God, "come in peace," says the Great God to thee. 2001 The double doors of heaven are open for thee; the (double doors of the) d.w-stars are open for thee, 2001 after thou art descended (into the grave) as the jackal of Upper Egypt, 2001 as Anubis on his belly (side), as Hpi.w who resides in Heliopolis. 2002 The great damsel who lives in Heliopolis has given her arm to thee. 2002 O N., thou hast [no] father, among men, who conceived thee; 2002 thou hast no mother, among mankind, who bore thee. 2003 Thy mother is the great wild-cow who lives in el-K�b, 2003 the white crown, the royal head-dress, she with the long feathers (hair?), she with the two hanging breasts, 2003 she will nurse thee; she will not wean thee. 2004 Raise thyself up, N., dress thyself in thy fringed-vestment, the first (best) in the house, 2004 thy d-mace on thine arm, thy Horus-weapon (m) in thy hand, thine m-sceptre on thine arm, thy d-mace in thy hand. 2005 Thou standest as he who is chief of the double 'itr.t-palace, who, judges the words of the gods. 2005 O N., thou belongest to the n.w (-stars), when R` shines behind the morning star. 2006 Lo, no god escapes from what he has said; 2006 he will offer thee thy thousand (loaves) of bread, thy thou sand (mugs) of beer, thy thousand of oxen, thy thousand of geese, 2006 thy thousand of everything on which a god lives. 53. RESURRECTION, TRANSFIGURATION, AND LIFE OF THE KING IN HEAVEN,

(603) 1675 (N. J�quier, VII 709 + 40). To say: Lift thyself up, father N.; fasten to thee thy head; take to thee thy limbs; 1675 (N. VII 709 + 40). lift thyself up upon thy feet; follow thy heart. 1675 Thy runners hasten; thy messengers rush on behind; 1676 thy herald of the horizon comes; Anubis approaches thee; 1676 tp gives his arm to thee; the gods desire (or, rejoice) ---- 1676c (N. VII 709 + 40: Thot comes in his dignity of spirit to the Two Enneads. 1676c + 1 (N. VII 709 + 42). He ferried over the lake; h[e] avoided the D.t 1677 ----------------------------------- 1677 ----------------------- with this mighty one who endures each day. 1678 He comes that he may govern the cities, that he may rule over the settlements, 1678 that he may command those who are in Nun 1678 sitting, to him -------------- 1679 ------------------------------------- 1679 ---------------- he rests alive in the West (or, he is satisfied in living in the West), 1679 among the Followers of R`, who make the way of twilight mount up.

(217) 152 To say: R`-Atum, N. comes to thee, an imperishable spirit, lord (by) decree of the places of the four papyrus-pillars. 152 Thy son comes to thee; N. comes to thee, 152 that ye may stride over the sky (way), reunited in obscurity; 152 that ye may arise in the horizon, in a place which is pleasing to you. 153 Set and Nephthys, hasten, announce to the gods of Upper Egypt and their spirits: 153 "N. comes, an imperishable spirit; 153 if he wills that ye die, you will die; if he wills that ye live, you will live." 154a-d == 1152a-d. 155 Osiris and Isis, hasten, announce to the gods of Lower Egypt and their spirits: 155 "N. comes, an imperishable spirit, like the morning star over the Nile; 155 the spirits in the waters adore him; 155 whom he wills that he live, be lives; whom he wills that be die, he dies." 156a-d = 152a-d. 157 Thot, hasten, announce to the gods of the West and their spirits: 157 "N. comes, an imperishable spirit, masked to the neck like an Anubis, chief of the western highland, 157 that he may count hearts, that he may be powerful over the best of the hearts; 157 whom he wills that he live, he lives; whom he wills that he die, he dies." 1158a-d = 152a-d. 159 Horus, hasten, announce to the Souls of the East and their spirits: 159 "N. comes, an imperishable spirit; 159 whom he wills that he live, he lives; whom he wills that he die, he dies,." 160 R`-Atum, thy son comes to thee; N. comes to thee; 160 let him ascend to thee, enfold him in thy embrace; 160 he is thy bodily son for ever.

(610) 1710 To say: Wake up for Horus; stand up before Set; 1710 raise thyself up, eldest son of Geb, 1710 before whom the Two Enneads tremble. 1711 (The keeper) of the palace stands up before thee, so that the three beginnings (of the divisions of the year) may be celebrated for thee. 1711 Thou dawnest on the (first of the) month; thou purifiest thyself on the day of the new-moon. 1711 The great mni.t (-stake) mourns for him, 1711 as for "Thee who standest without being tired," who resides in Abydos. 1712 Earth, hear that which the gods have spoken, what Horus says as he spiritualizes his father, 1712 like Horus- and like Min (or, Amn), 1712 like Seker who is at the head of Pdw-s. 1713 The earth speaks to thee: "The door of Aker is open for thee; the double doors of Geb are open for thee. 1713 Thou goest forth at the voice (of Anubis), for he has spiritualized thee, 1713 like Thot, (or) like Anubis, prince of the court of justice (or, divine court), 1714 that thou mayest judge, that thou mayest lean upon the Two Enneads, 1714 who are between the two sceptres, in this thy dignity of spirit, commanded by the gods to be in thee. 1715 If thou goest, Horus goes; if thou speakest, Set speaks; 1715 if thy step be hindered, the step of the gods will be hindered. 1716 Thou approachest the lake; thou advancest to the t wr, the Thinite nome; 1716 thou passest through Abydos, in this thy dignity of spirit., commanded by the gods to be in thee. 1717 A ramp is trodden for thee to the D.t to the place where is. 1717 The ox of heaven seizes thine arm; 1717 thou nourishest thyself with the food of the gods. 1718 The odour of Ddwn is on thee, the Upper Egyptian Youth, who is come from Nubia; 1718 he gives thee the incense wherewith the gods cense themselves. 1719 The two children (twins?) of the king of Lower Egypt have given birth to thee-- 1719 (they) who are on (his) head, (he) the lord of the great crown. 1719 R` calls to thee out of the 'iskn of heaven, 1719 as the jackal (god), nome-governor (of the Bows), the Two Enneads, 1719 as Horus who presides over his, abode (or thigh-offering). 1719 He appoints thee as the morning star (lit. god of the morning) in the midst of the Marsh of Reeds. 1720 The portal of heaven is open for thee towards the horizon; 1720 the heart of the gods rejoice at thy approach, 1720 as a star which ferries over the ocean which is under the underpart of Nut, 1720 in this, thy dignity issuing from the mouth of R`. 1721 Thou sittest upon this thy firm throne, like the Great One who is in Heliopolis; 1721 thou leadest the spirits (spiritualized ones); thou satisfiest the imperishable stars. 1722 Thine abundance is in that herb in which the gods, abound, 1722 and on which the spirits nourish themselves; 1722 thine eyes are opened by the earth, thy limbs are gathered up by the lord of (bw.t) the rebel city. 1723 Raise thyself up (like) nti-m (chief of Letopolis), 1723 when the great bread and this wine-like water were given to him. 1723 The 'im-trees serve thee, the nb-tree, bows its head to thee; 1723 a royal offering will be given to thee, such as Anubis will do for thee. 46. TEXTS OF MISCELLANEOUS CONTENTS,

(214) 136 O N., beware of the ocean (sea?). To say four times. 136 The messengers of thy ka are come for thee; the messengers of thy father are come for thee; the messengers of R` are come for thee. 137 Go after (pursue) thy sun (days); purify thyself, 137 (for) thy bones are (those of) female-falcons, goddesses, who are in heaven, 137 that thou mayest be at the side of the god; that thou mayest leave thy house to thy son 137 who is thine heir. Everyone who speaks, evil against the name of N., 138 when he ascends, Geb reckons him as an evil-doer in his own city, 138 so that he weakens, he falters. Thou purifiest thyself in the dew of the stars; 138 thou descendest on firm (copper?) cables, on the shoulders of Horus in his name of "He who is in the nw-boat." 139 The blessed dead (?) lament for thee (after) the imperishable stars bore thee (away). 139 Enter the abode of thy father, to the abode of Geb, 139 that he may give to thee that which is on the brow of Horus, that thou mayest be a ba thereby, that thou mayest be a m thereby, 139 that thou mayest be a nti-'imntiw thereby.

(669) 1961 To say: A prince ascends --- a great burnt-offering on the interior of the horizon; 1961 he has seen the preparation of the feast, and the preparation of the fire-pan, 1961 at the birth of the gods, on the five epagomenal days, who are before thee, 1961 "Great-his-breast," thou who art before the Bstw.w. 1962 -------------------------------------------1962a + 1 (N. X 755) ----------- N. of his mother; Twt, 1962a + 2 (N. 755). he who was born, a double, in the nest ---- Thot 1962 in the interior of the field of the tamarisk, at the source of the gods, 1963 for N. is my brother, proceeding from the thigh, 1963 who separated the two brothers, put apart the two fighters, who split your heads, O gods. 1964 -------- of --------------------- 1964b (N. 756) ---------- her fillet, N., 1964c (N. 756). as Nwrw, who is great among you, O gods, you who come to him, O gods; 1964 as Isis said to Nun: 1965 "I have given birth to him for thee; I have deposited him for thee; 1 have certainly spit him out for thee." 1965 He has no feet; he has no arms, 1965 and how shall he be assembled? 1966 Then let this copper be brought ------ the nw-boat --- with it. 1966b (N. 756). [Come ye] with him, nourished, with him in your arms, say they, the gods. 1966c (N. 756). Behold, he is born. 1966 Behold, he is assembled; behold he exists. 1967. Wherewith shall we break that which appertains to his egg, say they, the gods. 1968 Let then Seker of pdw come, 1968 that he may mould (smelt) his bones, that he may construct his skeleton 1968 ---------- 1968 It is he who shall break the e[gg], and [loose] the copper, 1969a (N. 758). so that the two followers of the gods, with sharp teeth and long claws, may bring the god forth by his hands. 1969 Behold, N. exists; behold, N. is assembled; 1969 behold N. has broken (his) egg. 1970 Wherewith shall N. be caused to fly? 1970b (N. 758-759). Then let there be brought to thee ------ nw-boat, built by Mw-n, 1970 that thou mayest fly therewith, that thou mayest fly therewith, 1970d (N. 759). the south-wind for thy foster-mother, the north-wind for thy nurse. 1971. N. flies; N. alights on the two wings (lit. feathers) of his father, Geb. 51. THE DEATH, RESURRECTION, AND SPIRITUALIZATION OF THE KING,

(606) 1683 To say: Arise for me, father; stand up for me, Osiris N. 1683 It is I; I am thy son; I am Horus. 1684 I have come to thee, that I may purify thee, that I may cleanse thee, 1684 that I may revivify thee, that I may assemble for thee thy bones, 1684 that I may collect for thee thy flesh, that I may assemble for thee thy dismembered limbs, 1685 for I am as Horus his avenger, I have smitten for thee him who smote thee; 1685 I have avenged thee, father Osiris N., on him who did thee evil. 1686 I have come to thee by order of rw; 1686 (for) he has appointed thee, father Osiris N., (to be) upon the throne of R`-Atum, 1686 that thou mayest lead the blessed dead(?). 1687 Thou shalt embark into the boat of R`, in which the gods love to ascend, 1687 in which the gods love to descend, in which R` is rowed to the horizon; 1687 N. shall embark into it, like R`. 1688 Thou shalt seat thyself upon this throne of R`, that thou mayest command the gods, 1688 for thou art indeed R`, who comes forth from Nut, who gives birth to R` every day. 1688 N. is born every day like R`. 1689 Take to thyself the heritage of thy father Geb before the corporation of the Ennead in Heliopolis. 1689 "Who is equal to him?", 1689 say the Two great and mighty Enneads who are at the head of the Souls of Heliopolis. 1690 These two great and mighty gods have appointed thee 1690 --those who are chiefs of the Marsh of Reeds--upon the throne of rw, 1690 as their eldest son; 1691 they placed Shu at thy left (east side), Tefnut at thy right (west side), 1691 Nun before thee (at thy south side), Nnt behind thee (at thy north side); 1692 they lead thee to these their places, beautiful and pure, 1692 which they made for R` when they placed him upon their thrones (his throne). 1693 N., they make thee live, 1693 so that thou mayest surpass the years of Horus of the horizon, 1693 when they make thy (for "his") name, "Withdraw not thyself from the gods." 1694 They recite for thee this chapter, which they recited for R`Atum who shines every day; 1694 they have appointed N. to their thrones (his throne) 1694 at the head of every Ennead, as R` and as his deputy. 1695 They cause N. to come into being as R`, in this, his name of "Khepri." 1695 Thou mountest to them as R`, in this his name of "R`"; 1695 thou turnest back again from their face as R`, in this his name of "Atum." 1696 The Two Enneads shall rejoice, O father; 1696 when thou approachest, O father, Osiris N., they say: 1696 "Our; brother is come to us." 1696 The Two Enneads say to Osiris N.: "King, Osiris N., 1697 one of us is come to us." 1697 The Two Enneads say to thee: "King, Osiris N., 1698 the eldest son of his father is come to us." 1698 The Two Enneads say to thee: "King, Osiris N., 1698 he is the eldest son of his mother." 1698 The Two Enneads say to thee: "King, Osiris N., 1699 he to whom evil was done by his brother Set comes to us." 1699 The Two Enneads say: 1699 "And we shall not permit that Set be delivered from carrying thee for ever, king, Osiris N." 1699 The Two Enneads say to thee: "King, Osiris N., 1700. raise thyself up, king, Osiris N.; thou livest." 44.
