(690) 2092 To say: Wake up, Osiris; let the weary god awake. 2092 The god stands up; the god is powerful over his body. 2093 Wake up, N.; let the weary god awake. 2093 The god stands up; the god is powerful over his body. 2094 Horus stands up; he clothes N. with linen--him who came forth from him. 2094 N. is equipped as a god, standing in the pr.wr-palace, sitting with the Two Enneads. 2095 "O N., stand up, come in peace," says R` to thee; "messenger of the great god, 2095 thou goest to heaven; thou goest forth through the doors of the horizon; 2096 Geb sends thee; thou art a soul like a [god, respected like a god]; 2096 [thou art powerful] over thy body, like a god, 2096 like Ba, chief of the living, 2096 like m, chief of spirits." 2097 N. comes; he is equipped like a god; his bones are assembled like [Osiris]; 2097 [he comes behind his uraeus]. 2097 Thou hast come, O N., out of Heliopolis; thou art avenged; thy heart is placed in thy body; 2098 Thy face is like that of a jackal; thy flesh is like that of Atum; 2098 thy b is in thy body; thy m is behind thee; Isis is before thee; Nephthys is behind thee. 2099 Thou journeyest through the regions of Horus; thou travelest through the regions of Set. 2099 It is Shu and Tefnut who lead thee, when thou ascendest from Heliopolis. 2100 O N., Horus has woven his tent over thy head; 2100 Set has stretched out thy canopy; 2100 be enclosed, O father, by the divine tent; thou art brought there in thy beloved places. 2101 O N., Horus comes to thee provided with his souls, 2101 pi, Dw-mw.t.f, 'Im.ti, b-n.w.f. 2102 a. They bring to thee thy name of "Imperishable"; 2102 thou perishest not; thou diest not. 2103 O N., thy sister b.wt has purified [thee] 2103 in Rd-wr chief of the lakes. 2103 Thou appearest to them like a jackal, like Horus chief of the living, 2103 like Geb chief of the Ennead, like Osiris chief of spirits. 2104. Thou commandest spirits; thou leadest the [imperishable stars]. 2105 The evil of Osiris--the evil of N.--the evil of the bull of the Two Enneads-- 2105 the god is loosed (from it), N. has power over his body. 2105 N. is loosed (from it); N. has power over his body. 2106 O N., Horus, is standing, he glorifies thee; 2106 he conducts thee, when thou ascendest to heaven. 2107 Thy mother Nut receives thee; she lays hold of thine arm, 2107 that thou mayest not be in need, that thou mayest not moan (like a cedar), 2107 (but) that thou mayest live like the coleoptera (lives) and endure in [Mendes]. 2108 O N., thou art adorned like a god; thy face is like (that of) a jackal, as Osiris, 2108 that soul in Ndi.t, that mighty one in the great city. 2109. The sky trembles, the earth quakes before the god, before N. 2110 N. [is not enveloped] by the earth; 2110 'I.t-wt.t, thou art not enveloped by the earth. 2110 Thy fame is by day; thy fear is by night, as a god, lord of f ear. 2110 Thou commandest the gods like the mighty one, chief of the mighty. 2111. [O] Osiris, the overflow comes, the inundation hastens, Geb groans. 2112 I have pitied thee with pity; I have smitten him who acted with evil (intent) against thee; 2112 that thou mayest live, that thou mayest raise thyself up because of thy strength. 2113. O N., [the inundation comes 1, [the overflow hastens], Geb [groans]. 2114 Exult in the divine efflux which is in thee; let thy heart live; 214 thy divine limbs are in good condition; loosen thy bindings. 2115 Horus comes to thee, N.; he does for thee that which he did for his father Osiris, 2115 that thou mayest live like unto the life of those in heaven, and [that thou mayest come into being] more (truly) than those who are on earth. 2116 Raise thyself up because of thy strength; ascend thou to heaven. 2116 The sky bears thee like 3; thou hast power over thy body; 2116 thou defendest thyself against thine enemy. 2117. [O N.] [I have wept for thee], I have mourned for thee; 2118 I shall not forget thee; my heart will not weary to give thee offerings every day, 2118 at the (feast of the) month, at the (feast of the) half month, at the (feast of) covering the fire-pan, at the (feast of) Thot, at the wgfeast, 2118 at the (feast of) slaughtering, (at) the (feast of) thy years, (at) (the feast of) thy birth, at the beginnings of thy months, during which thou livest as a god. 2119. O N., may thy body be clothed, that thou mayest come to me. 58. TEXTS OF MISCELLANEOUS CONTENTS,

Stand up, Osiris, 1199 commend N. to those who are on "m is joyous" north of the Marsh of Offerings, 1199 like as thou didst commend Horus to Isis the day that thou didst impregnate her, 1200 that they may give food to N. in the fields, 1200 and that he may drink at the sources 1200 in the Marsh of Offerings.
