(670) 1972. To say: The double doors of heaven are open; the double doors of the bows are open. 1973 The gods in Buto were filled with compassion, when they came to Osiris N., 1973 [at the voice of we]eping of Isis and at the lamentation of Nephthys, 1973 at the wailing of these two spirits 1973 [for this Great One who comes forth] from the D.t. 1974 The Souls of Buto dance for thee; 1974 they beat their flesh for thee; they hit their arms for thee; 1974 they dishevel their hair for thee; 1974 they smite their legs for thee. 1975 They say to thee, Osiris N., "thou art gone, thou art come; 1975 thou art asleep, [thou art awake]; thou art [dead (lit. thou landest)], thou art alive. 1976 Stand up, see that which thy son has done for thee; 1976 awake, hear [that which] Horus [has done for] thee. 1977 He has beaten for thee him who beats thee, li[ke an ox]; 1977 he has killed for thee him who kills thee, like a wild-bull; 1977 he has bound for thee him who binds thee; 1977 he has put him under thy great daughter who is in dm, 1978 so that mourning ceased in the two 'itr.t-palaces of the gods." 1978 Osiris speaks to Horus: 1978 After he had exterminated the evil [which was in N. on] his fourth day, 1978 after he had annulled that which he did against him on his eighth [day]. 1979 [Thou hast come forth] from the lake of life; [thou art] purified [in the lake of] b.w, 1979 and art become Wepwawet; and thy son Horus conducts thee, 1979 when he has given to thee the gods, thine enemies, and Thot has brought them to thee. 1980 How beautiful indeed is the sight, how agreeable is the view, the sight of Horus, 1980 in that he gave life to his father, [in that he offered] satisfaction to Osiris, 1980 before the gods of the west! 1981 Thy libation is poured by Isis, [Nephthys has purified thee]-- 1981 [thy two sisters] great and powerful, who collected thy flesh, 1981 who bound together thy limbs, who made thy two eyes to appear in thy face-- 11982a. the boat of the evening and the boat of the morning, 1982 Atum has given to thee, and the Two Enneads have made for thee. 1983 The children of thy child have raised thee up, perfect-- 1983 pi, 'Im.ti, Dw-mu.t-f, b-n.w.f, 1983 who made for thee [their] names [into tt.wi], 1983 [who washed thy face], [who dried] thy tears, 1983 who opened thy mouth with their copper (or, iron) fingers. 1984 Thou mountest, thou mountest towards the broad-hall of Atum; 1984 thou marchest towards the Marsh of Reeds; 1984 thou voyagest over the places of the great god. 1985 To thee heaven is given, to thee the earth is given, to thee the Marsh of Reeds is given, 1985 [by] the two great gods who row thee over- 1985 Shu and Tefnut, the two great gods of Heliopolis. 1986 The awakening [of the god], [the rising of the god], 1986 [for this spirit, who ascends from] the D.t, (even) Osiris N. who ascends from Geb. 52.
