(258) 308 To say: N. is Osiris in a dust-storm. 308 His abomination is the earth; N. has not entered into Geb, 308 that he might be destroyed; nor has he slept in his house on earth, 308 that his bones might be broken. His wounds are effaced: 308 N. has purified himself with the eye of Horus; his wound is effaced by the two mourners of Osiris; 308 N. has let the running (of his wound) flow to the ground at u. 309 It is his sister, the lady of P, who wept for him. 309 N. is on his way to heaven; N. is on his way to heaven; on the wind; on the wind. 309 He is not hindered; there is no one by whom he is hindered. 309 N., he is "on his own," the eldest of the gods. 310 His bread comes on high with (that of) R`; 310 his offering comes out of Nun. 310 N. is one who comes again; 310 he goes, he comes with R`. 310 His houses are visited by him. 311 N. seizes kas; he frees kas; 311 he covers up evil; he abolishes evil. 311 N. spends the day; he spends, the night, while he appeases the two choppers in Wn.w. 311 Nothing opposes his foot; nothing restrains his heart.

(442) 819 To say: That Great One is certainly fallen on his side; be who is in Ndi.t is thrown down. 819 Thine arm is seized by R`; thy head is lifted up by the Two Enneads. 819 Behold, he is come (again) as ; behold, Osiris is come as . 820 lord of the wine-cellar at the Wg-feast, 820 "good," as his mother said; "heir," as his father said, 820 conceived by heaven, born of the Dw.t. 820 Heaven conceives thee together with S'; 820 N. is born in the Dw.t together with S'. 821 He lives who lives at the command of the gods; so wilt thou live. 821 Thou ascendest with S' on the eastern side of the sky; 821 thou descendest with S' on the western side of the sky. 822 Your third is Sothis of the pure places, 822 she is your leader (or, who will lead you) by the beautiful ways in heaven, 822 in the Marsh of Reeds. 21.

(4) Hermes, which is the name of my forebear, whose home is in a place called after him, doth aid and guard all mortal [men] who come to him from every side. As for Osiris’ [spouse]; how many are the blessings that we know Isis bestows when she’s propitious; how many does she injure when she’s wrath! For that the terrene and the cosmic Gods are easily enraged, in that they are created and composed of the two natures.
