(515) 1176 To say: Two legs of Horus, two wings of Thot, 1176 ferry N. over; leave him not without a boat! 1177 Give thou bread to N.; give thou beer to N., 1177 from thy eternal bread, this thy everlasting beer. 1178 N. is by these two obelisks of R`, which are on earth; 1178 N. is by these two holy signs of R`, which are in heaven; 1179 N. goes on these two reed-floats of the sky which are before R`; 1179 he brings this jar of the libation of R`, 1179 which purifies the land of the south before R`, when he ascends in his horizon. 1180 (When) N. comes to the field of life, to the birthplace of R` in b.w, 1180 N. finds b.wt, daughter of Anubis; 1180 she approaches him with these her four nm.t-jars, 1180 with which she refreshes the heart of the Great God, on the day of awakening. 1181 She (also) refreshes the heart of N. therewith to life, 1181 she purifies N., she censes N. 1182 N. receives his provision from that which is in the granary of the Great God; 1182 N. is clothed with imperishable stars; 1182 N. presides over the two 'itr.t-palaces, 1182 he sits at the place of him equipped with the form (of a man).

(259) 312 To say: N. is Osiris in a dust-storm. 3112 The abomination of N. is the earth; he has, not entered into Geb, 312 that N. might perish; nor has he slept in his house on earth, 312 that the bones of N. might be broken. His wounds are effaced; 312 N. has purified himself with the eye of Horus; his wound is effaced by the two mourners of Osiris; 312 N. has let the running (of his wound) flow to the ground at u. 313 It is the sister of N., the lady P, who wept for him. 313 The two nurses (or, attendants), who wept for Osiris, wept for him. 313 N. is on his way to heaven; N. is on his way to heaven, with Shu and R`. 313 N. is not hindered; there is no one who hinders him. 313 N. is upon his feet, the eldest of the gods. 313 N. has no session in the divine court. 314 The bread of N. comes on high with (that of) R`; 314 his offering comes out of Nun. 314 N. is one who comes again; 314 N. goes with R`; N. comes with R`. 3, 4 His houses are visited by him. 3, 5 He covers up evil; he abolishes evil. 315 He seizes kas; he frees kas. 315 N. spends the day; he spends the night; N. frees the two choppers in Wn.w. 315 Nothing opposes the feet of N.; nothing restrains the heart of N. 8. THE DECEASED KING TRIUMPHS OVER HIS ENEMIES AND IS RECOGNIZED BY THE GODS,

(268) 370 To say: N. washes himself, R` appears, the Great Ennead sparkles; 370 the Ombite is high as chief of the 'itr.t-palace; 371 N. puts humanity off from him as a limb; 371 N. seizes the wrr.t-crown from the hand of the Ennead. 371 Isis nurses him, Nephthys suckles him, 372 Horus takes him by his fingers (to his side), 372 he purifies N. in the lake of the jackal, 372 he makes, the ka of N. clean in the lake of the D.t. 372 He rubs down the flesh of the ka of N. and his own 372 with that which is near R` in the horizon, that which he (R`) took, 373 when the two lands beamed and when he bared the face of the gods. 373 He brings the ka of N. and himself to the great palace, 373 after offices (?) were made for him and the mtt was knotted for him. 374 N. leads the imperishable stars, 374 he ferries over to the Marshes of Reeds, 374 the inhabitants of the horizon row him, the inhabitants of b.w navigate him. 375 N. is very capable (mighty), his arms will not desert him; 375 N. is very excellent (foremost), his ka comes to him (to his aid).

(205) 120 To say: O ye who preside over food, ye who are attached to plentifulness (gb) 120 commend N. to Ftk.t, the cup-bearer of R`, that he may commend him to R` himself, 120 that R` may commend him to the chiefs of the provisions of this year, 120 that they may seize and give him, that they may take and give him barley, spelt, bread, beer. 121 a. For as to N., it is his father who gives, to him; it is R` who gives to him barley, spelt, bread, beer. 121 For he (N.) is indeed the great bull which smote Kns.t. 121 For to N. indeed belong the five portions of bread, liquid, cake, in the mansion, 121 of which three are in heaven with R`, and two on earth with the Ennead. 122 For he is one who is unbound, he is indeed set free; for he is one who is seen, he is one who is indeed observed. 122 O R`, he (N.) is better to-day than yesterday. 123 N. has copulated with Mw.t; N. has kissed Sw-.t; 123 N. has united with Nbw.t. 123 N. has copulated with his beloved, deprived of tbtb (grain?, seed?) and of ss. 123 But as to the beloved of N., she gives bread to N.; 123 she did well by him in that day.

(684) 2051 To say: N. ascended at thy ascension, Osiris; 2051 N. has spoken (with) his ka in heaven. 2051 The bones of N. are firm (or, copper), and the limbs of N. 2051 are like the stars, the imperishable stars. 2052 Given that N. be encompassed, then a great one falls into the hands of N. 2052 The mother of N. is Nut; 2053 the father of N. is Shu; the mother of N. is Tefnut. 2053 They take N. to heaven, to heaven-on the smoke of incense. 2054. N. is purified; N. lives; N. makes his seat like Osiris; 2055 N. sits at thy side (lit. shoulder), Osiris; N. spits on thy hair, Osiris; 2055 he will not let him become diseased; N. will not permit him to be bald, 2055 at the mouth of N. daily, at the beginnings (of the feast) of the half months, at the beginnings (of the feast) of the months. 2056 N. sits at thy side (lit. shoulder), Horus; N. spits on thy hair, Horus; 2056 he will not let it become diseased; N. will not permit himself to be bald, 2056 at the mouth of N. daily, at the beginnings (of the feast) of the half months, at the beginnings (or the feast) of the months. 2057. N. is one of these four beings, sons of Atum, sons of Nut, 2058 who do not rot; N. does not rot; 2058 who do not decay; N. does not decay; 2058 who do not fall upon earth from heaven; 2058 N. does not fall upon the earth from heaven. 2059 N. was sought; N. is found with them; 2059 N. is one of them, praised by the bull of heaven. 2060. N. makes his ka arise; N. returns (?); N. strides- 2061 the good companion makes his ka arise, returns (?), strides. 2061 N. rests at home, on the under (side) of the body of the sky, like a nfr.t-star, 2061 at the meanderings of the Winding Watercourse. 2062 When N. ascends to heaven, give him this formula: "R` is good each day." 2062 N. put himself on thy way, Horus of Ssm.t, on which thou leadest the gods 2062 to the beautiful ways of heaven and of the Marsh of Offerings. 56. TEXTS OF MISCELLANEOUS CONTENTS,

(347) 563 To say: The mouth of N. is in incense; the lips of N. are in myrrh. 563 Descend, O N., from the field of thy ka to the Marsh of Offerings. 563 of N. is from the n`r.t; the meal of N. is like (that of) the divine boat. 564 The life of N. will be more than that of Rnp.t; the food of N. will be more than (that of) pi (the inundation). 564 O ka of N., bring (food) that N. may eat with thee.

(265) 351 To say: The two reed-floats of heaven are placed for R` that he may ferry over therewith to the horizon, to Harachte. 351 The two reed-floats of heaven are placed for Harachte that he may ferry over therewith to the horizon to R`. 351 The two reed-floats of heaven are placed for N. himself 351 that he may ferry over therewith to the horizon, to R`, to Harachte. 352 The mn`-canal is open; the Winding Watercourse is inundated; 352 the Marshes of Reeds are filled (with water). 353 N. will certainly ferry over to the eastern side of heaven, 353 to the place where the gods will be born, 353 where N. will certainly be born with them, like Horus, like him of the horizon. 354 N. is justified. 354 Praise be to N.; praise be to the ka of N.! 355 Let them be called to N.; 355 let them be brought to N., those four traffic-guards, the wearers of side-locks, 355 who stand on their d`m-sceptres, on the eastern side of the sky, 356 that they may speak the name of N., the good, to R`, 356 (and) that they may proclaim the name of N., the good, to Nbk.w. 356 N. is justified. 356 Praise be to N.; praise be to the ka of N.! 357 The sister of N. is Sothis; the mother of N. is the morning star. 357 N. is that (star) which is with R` on the under (side) of the body of the sky. 357 N. is justified. 357 Praise be to N.; praise be to the ka of N.!

(114) 74 To say: Osiris N., I bring to thee that which is befitting to thy f ace. 74 To say four times: For N., a lifting up of the offering, four times. Two nr-loaves.

(1) Here then, too, O excellent son, after the images, I come in due order and reverence to the Godlike reality of the archetypes, saying here to those yet being initiated, for the harmonious guidance of their souls, that the varied and sacred composition of the symbols is not without spiritual contemplation for them, as merely presented superficially. For the most sacred chants and readings of the Oracles teach them a discipline of a virtuous life, and previous to this, the, complete purification from destructive evil; and the most Divine, and common, and peaceful distribution of one and the same, both Bread and Cup, enjoins upon them a godly fellowship in character, as having a fellowship in food, and recalls to their memory the most Divine Supper, and arch-symbol of the rites performed, agreeably with which the Founder of the symbols Himself excludes, most justly, him who had supped with Him on the holy things, not piously and in a manner suitable to his character; teaching at once, clearly and Divinely, that the approach to Divine mysteries with a sincere mind confers, on those who draw nigh, the participation in a gift according to their own character.

(11) North of the altar of incense was placed a table, on which there was "the exhibition of the loaves;" for the most nourishing of the winds are those of the north. And thus are signified certain seats of churches conspiring so as to form one body and one assemblage.

(409) 717 To say: N. is the bull of the Ennead, 717 lord of the five meals, three in heaven, two on earth. 717 It is the boat of the evening sun and the boat of the morning sun, 717 which convey this to N. from the nn-house of the god. 718 The abomination of N. is offal; he rejects urine; 718 he drinks it not. 718 N. lives on sweet-wood (i.e. sweets), and from fumigations which are in the earth.

(249) 264 To say: O ye two contestants, announce now to the honourable one in this his name: 264 N. is this ssss-plant which springs from the earth. 264 The hand of N. is cleansed by him who has prepared his throne. 265 N. it is who is at the nose of the powerful Great One. 265 N. comes out of the Isle of Flame, 265 (after) he, N., had set truth therein in the place of error. 265 N. it is who is the guardian of laundry, who protects the uraeusserpents, 265 in the night of the great flood, which proceeds from the Great. 266 N. appears as Nefertem, as the flower of the lotus at the nose of R`; 266 as he comes forth from the horizon every day, the gods purify themselves, when they see him.

(469) 906 N. purifies himself; 906 N. has taken his helm (oar); he occupies his seat; 906 N. seats himself in the bow of the boat of the Two Enneads; 906 N. rows R` to the West. 906 He (R`) establishes the seat of N. ever the lords of kas; 906 he writes (the name) of N. over the living. 907 The double doors of the b-k, which is in b.w, are open for N.; 907 the double doors of bi, which is in d.w, are open for N. 907 This N. goes through, 907 with his panther-skin loin-cloth on, and the m-sceptre of N. in his hand. 906 N. is unhurt (well) with his flesh; N. is pleased (is good) with his name. 906 N. lives with his ka; 908 it (the ka) expels the evil which is before N.; 908 it drives away the evil which is behind N.; 908 like the boomerangs of him who presides over Letopolis, 908 which drove away the evil which was before him, 908 which expelled the evil which was behind him. 909 N. sees what the n.w (-stars) do, because (to be) on their side is so good; 909 N. is pleased (to be) with them; they are pleased. 909 I am a (n.w)-star, the side-locks of a (n.w)-star; N. is a (n.w)-star, a (n.w)-star indeed. 909 This N. will not suffer eternally.

(325) 525 To say: The double doors of heaven are open; the double doors of b.w are open 525 for Horus of the gods, at daybreak, 525 that he may ascend in the Marsh of Reeds and purify himself in the Marsh of Reeds. 526 The double doors of heaven are open; the double doors of b.w are open 526 for Harachte at daybreak, 526 that he may ascend in the Marsh of Reeds and purify himself in the Marsh of Reeds. 527 The double doors of heaven are open; the double doors of b.w are open 527 for Horus of the East at daybreak, 527 that he may ascend in the Marsh of Reeds and purify himself in the Marsh of Reeds. 528 The double doors of heaven are open; the double doors of b.w are open 528 for Horus of the Ssm.t-land at daybreak, 528 that he may ascend in the Marsh of Reeds, and purify himself in the Marsh of Reeds. 529 The double doors of heaven are open; the double doors of b.w are open 529 for N. himself at daybreak 529 that he may ascend in the Marsh of Reeds and purify himself in the Marsh of Reeds. 530 N. is clean; he takes his lasting (copper?) bones; 530 he has stretched out his imperishable limbs, which were (or, are) in the body of his mother Nut. 531 R`, give thine arm to N. 531 Shu will draw him up to the "Companions of Shu," 531 after he has caused N. to be nourished with the milk of two black cows, the two nurses of the Souls of Heliopolis. 532 O Hpt, it is grevious for the body of Nut, because of the fury of the divine seed, which shall be in her. 532 Behold also N.--N. is a divine seed which shall be in her. 533 Hpt, Hnn, Smnn.w, 533 N. is purified. He has taken his divine w-vestment, 533 that N. may establish himself there as a god like them. 533 Hpt, Hnn, Smnn.w, 533 Take N. away; let him remain with you.

(19) 'This, O Nakiketas, is thy fire which leads to heaven, and which thou hast chosen as thy second boon. That fire all men will proclaim. Choose now, O Nakiketas, thy third boon.'

(528) 1250 Further, to say: O Swnt, who traverses the sky nine times in the night, 1250 lay hold of the arm of N. for life; 1250 ferry him on this sea. 1250 (So) N. descends into this boat of the god, 1250 in which the corporation of the Ennead rows, 1250 to row N. in it. 1251 "The chapter of Bdw" is recited for thee; 1251 "the chapter of natron" is recited for thee. 1251 Incense stands (as chief) before the Great Ennead, 1251 while Bdw is seated before (or, in) the great 'itr.t-palace.

(662) 1874 O brilliant, brilliant; Khepri, Khepri, 1874 thou art on the way to N.; N. is on the way to thee; 1874 thy life is on the way to N.; the life of N. is on the way to thee. 1875 O papyrus, going forth from Wd.t, 1875 thou art gone forth as N.; N. is gone forth as thou. 1875 N. is strong through thine appearance. 1876 Appetite belongs to the breakfast of N.; 1876 plenty belongs to the supper of N. 1876 Hunger is not powerful in the life of N.; 1876 fire is far from N. 1877 N. lives from thy plenty; 1877 N. abounds in the abundance of thy food, O R`, every day. 1877 Father N., arise, 1877 take this thy first libation, coming out of Chemmis. 1878 Let them who are in their graves, arise; let them undo their bandages. 1878 Shake off the sand from thy face; 1878 raise thyself up (from) on thy left side, support thyself on thy right side (upright). 1879 Raise thy face, that thou mayest see that which I have done for thee. 1879 I am thy son, I am thine heir. 1880 I have hoed wheat (or spelt) for thee; I have tilled barley for thee 1880 barley for thy wg-feast, wheat for thy yearly feast. 1881 The eye of Horus is offered to thee; it is young with thee; it is large with thee, 1881 O lord of the house; thy hand is upon thy property.

(266) 358 To say: The two reed-floats of heaven are placed for R`, 358 that R` may ferry over with them to the horizon, to Harachte. 358 The two reed-floats of heaven are placed for N., 358 that he may ferry over with them to the horizon, to Harachte. 358 The two reed-floats of heaven are placed for Harachte, 358 that Harachte may ferry over with them to the Horizon, to R`. 358 The two reed-floats of heaven are placed for N., 358 that N. may ferry over with them to the horizon, to R`. 359 The mn`-canal is open; the Marsh of Reeds is filled with water; 359 the Winding Watercourse is inundated. 360 N. will certainly ferry over to the horizon, to Harachte. 360 Let there be brought to N. these four friendly ones, 360 the traffic-guards, the wearers of side-locks, 360 who sit on their d'm-sceptres on the eastern side of heaven. 361 Ye shall say it (namely) the good name of N. to Nb-k.w. 361 Praise be to N.; praise be to his ka! 361 N. is justified; the ka of N. is justified by the god. 362 R` has [taken] N. to himself to heaven, on the eastern side of heaven; 362 he is like Horus, of the D.t; he is like that star which radiates heaven. 363 The sister of N. is Sothis; [the mother of N. is the morning star]; 363 [N. sits between] them. 363 Heaven will never be void of N.; never shall the earth be void of N. 363 By command ----------------------------- 363 ------------------------, bring this (boat) to N. 363 he will be your third in Heliopolis (or, as a Heliopolitan).

(271) 388 It is N. who inundated the land after it had come out of the ocean; it is N. who pulled up the papyrus; 388 it is N. who reconciled the two lands; it is N. who united the two lands; 388 it is N. with whom his mother, the great wild-cow, will be united. 389 Mother of N., thou wild-cow, who is upon the herb (-overgrown) hill, who is upon the hill of the ss-bird. 389 the two dd-pillars are standing, the broken steps are falling down. 390 N. ascends on the ladder which his father R` made for him, 390 Horus and Set lay hold of the arm of N.; they take him to the D.t. 391 He (Horus) to whom it was signalled (winked): "Guard thyself against him to whom (this) is ordered"; 391 he (Set) to whom it was ordered: "Guard thyself against him to whom (this) is signalled (winked)." 391 The face of god is open (revealed) to N.; N. sits (takes his place) upon the great throne at the side of the god. 10. THE DECEASED KING IN HEAVEN,

(681) 2034 To say: Great heaven, give thy hand to N.; 2034 great Nut, give thy hand to N.; 2034 it is N. thy divine falcon. 2035 N. is come; he ascends to heaven; N. opens b.w; 2035 N. greets his father, R`. 2036 He crowned him as a Horus, in which (form) N. comes; 2036 he gives to N. two real crowns; 2036 (and) he establishes for N. his two divine eyes. 2037 N. ascends to him, great, as Horus of the sky, at the zenith of heaven; 2037 he who smites the crowns of the North, who gives commands to the Wtn.w. 2038 N. is followed by the `fti.w. 2038 Those in heaven and on earth come to him with salutations, 2038 as well as jackals, as (lit. (in) place of) Setite spirits, 2038 superiors and inferiors. 2039. He is anointed with perfume, clothed with p-t, living on offerings. 2040 N. commands; N. confers distinctions; 2040 N. awards places; 2040 N. makes offerings; N. conducts the presentations. 2041. It is N.; N., is the one of heaven; he exercises power before Nut.
