(3) "Child, copy the contents of the book on turquoise steles. Child, it is fitting to copy this book on turquoise steles in hieroglyphic characters, for mind itself has become the supervisor of these things. So I command that this discourse be carved into stone and that you put it in my sanctuary. Eight guards watch over it with . . . the sun: the males on the right have faces of frogs, and the females on the left have faces of cats. Put a square milkstone at the base of the turquoise tablets, and copy the name on the azure stone tablet in hieroglyphic characters. Child, you must do this when I am in Virgo, and the sun is in the first half of the day, and fifteen degrees have passed by me."

(1) "Child, copy this book for the temple at Diospolis in hieroglyphic characters, and call it the Eighth Reveals the Ninth."

(5) "Write an oath in the book, so that those who read the book may not use the wording for malicious purposes or to subvert fate. Rather, they should submit to the law of god and not transgress whatsoever, but in purity ask god for wisdom and knowledge. And whoever will not be conceived in the beginning by god develops through the general and instructional discourses. Such a person will not be able to read what is written in this book, even though the person's conscience is pure within and the person does nothing shameful and does not go along with it. Rather, such a person progresses by stages and advances in the way of immortality, and so advances in the understanding of the eighth that reveals the ninth."

(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.

(523) 1231 To say: The sky has strengthened the radiance for N., 1231 that N. may lift himself to heaven as the eye of R`, 1231 and that N. may stand at this left eye of Horus 1231 where the word of the gods is heard. 1232 Thou shalt stand in the presence of the spirits, 1232 as Horus stood in the presence of the living. 1232 N. shall stand in the presence of the spirits, the imperishable stars, 1232 as Osiris stands in the presence of the spirits.

(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.

(7) "This is the oath: I adjure you who will read this holy book, by heaven and earth and fire and water and seven rulers of substance and the creative spirit in them and the god not conceived and the self-conceived one and the one who has been conceived, that you guard what Hermes has communicated. God will be at one with those who keep the oath and everyone we have named, but wrath will come upon each of those who violate the oath. This is the perfect one who is, child."

(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,

(419) 743 To say: Greetings to thee, N., on this thy day, 743 as thou standest before R`, when he ariseth in the east, 743 adorned with this thy dignity among the spirits. 743 The arms interlace for thee; the feet agitate for thee; the hands wave for thee. 744 Isis laid hold of thine arm; she caused thee to enter into the min.w. 744 The earth is adorned; thy mourners lament. 745 May Anubis First of the Westerners give an offering: 745 thy thousands of loaves of bread, thy thousands of mugs of beer, thy thousands of jars of ointment, 745 thy thousands of alabaster vases (of perfume), thy thousands of garments, 745 thy thousands of heads of oxen. 746 The mn-goose will be beheaded for thee; the trp-goose will be killed for thee. 746 Horus has exterminated the evil which was in N. in his four day (term); 746 Set has annulled that which he did against N. in his eight day (term). 747 The doors are open for those in secret places. 747 Stand up, remove thy earth, shake off thy dust, raise thyself up, 748 voyage thou with the spirits. 748 Thy wings are those of a falcon; thy brightness is that of a star. 748 No enemy (?) will bend over N.; 748 the heart of N. will not be taken; his heart will not be carried off. 749 N. is a great one with an uninjured wrr.t-crown. 749 N. equips himself with his firm (or, iron, shining) limbs. 749 N. voyages, over the sky to the Marsh of Reeds; 249 N. makes his abode in the Marsh of Offerings, 749 among the imperishable stars in the following of Osiris.
