Chapter 112 relates how, owing to an imprudent request, Horus was the 6. CHAPTER I. 7. CHAPTER I. 8. 1. The title here translated is that usual in all the papyri 9. 2. ⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂. These are two very difficult words, 10. 177. ⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂. 11. 3. M. Déveria has produced excellent evidence showing that ⁂ 12. 4. ⁂ _ȧn_ in this place as in very many others is not a preposition, 13. 5. The Bull of Amenta is Osiris. Bull, like Lion or Hawk, was one of the 14. 6. ⁂⁂⁂⁂ _T’at’at_. This word is often wrongly translated 15. 7. The _sebȧu_ are the enemies of the _Sun_, either as Rā or Osiris. I 16. 8. _Het Saru_, ‘House of the Prince,’ is the name of the great Sanctuary 17. 9. ⁂⁂⁂⁂ or ⁂⁂⁂, the ‘firm, stable, unalterable, 18. 10. _Rechit_, a locality in the north of Egypt. The mourners and weepers 19. 11. _Teshtesh_ is one of the names of Osiris; perhaps, as might be 20. 13. ⁂⁂ _Re-stau_, one of the gates of the Netherworld. Its 21. 14. _Sechem._ Letopolis, where the arm of Osiris had been deposited, 22. 15. The _Tank of Flame_, as may be inferred from the vignettes of the 23. 17. The speaker now assumes the persons of various priests in 24. 18. The text here is hopelessly corrupt. The translation given follows 25. 19. This is perhaps supposed to be said by the priest called ⁂⁂, 26. 20. One of the designations of Osiris. Perhaps the word _Ba_ should be 27. 21. The ⁂⁂⁂ _sem_, and the ⁂⁂⁂ _urȧ ḫerp ḥem_, were 28. 22. ⁂⁂⁂⁂ _Suten-ḥenen_ was called by the Greeks 29. 23. Or ‘rid of his business.’ The word ⁂ _sep_, ‘turn,’ has the 30. Chapter 1 is followed in M. Naville’s edition by another, which the 31. CHAPTER II. 32. 1. ⁂ ‘unicus,’ the Sole and Only One, is one of the many appellatives 33. 2. ⁂⁂⁂⁂, ‘multitude, throng, train,’ here put for the 34. 3. ⁂⁂⁂⁂, ⁂⁂⁂⁂ אל־מהוץ, foras, ‘forth, out of 35. 5. Or ‘among the Glorious ones,’ ⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂. 36. CHAPTER III. 37. 1. A personification of the Nile, ⁂⁂⁂. The later texts read 38. 2. The later texts have ⁂⁂⁂⁂, implying the two lions Shu and 39. 3. See note 8 on Chapter 1. 40. CHAPTER IV. 41. 1. ⁂⁂⁂⁂, literally ‘weeping,’ ‘flood of tears,’ hence 42. 2. ⁂⁂⁂ or ⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂ are two divinities in opposition 43. CHAPTER V. 44. 2. ⁂⁂⁂⁂ is the older reading, but ⁂⁂⁂ seems to be 45. 3. The oldest text must have had simply the ideographic ⁂, _Ae_ gives 46. 5. ⁂⁂⁂ signifies ‘salute,’ as in Chapter 12, 1, and 14, 1, and 47. CHAPTER VI. 48. 1. This chapter is inscribed on the funereal statuettes, of which 49. CHAPTER VII. 50. 1. These wax figures of gods and other personages were used not 51. 2. The more recent texts omit this ending and substitute, “I know, I 52. CHAPTER VIII. 53. 2. See note on Chapter 17, 27. It must be sufficient here to say that 54. 3. This is one of the most difficult passages in the Book of the Dead, 55. CHAPTER IX. 56. 1. ⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂ ‘Soul most mighty,’ is one of the principal 57. CHAPTER X. 58. CHAPTER XI. 59. CHAPTER XII. 60. 3. ⁂⁂⁂⁂ or ⁂⁂⁂ , a word not confined to 61. 4. As the sun, who is represented as an infant at dawn and as an aged 62. CHAPTER XIII. 63. 1. The Bennu is a bird of the Heron kind. He is very commonly but, I 64. 2. This passage is, unfortunately, both in the ancient and the recent 65. CHAPTER XIV. 66. 1. ⁂⁂⁂⁂ like the Latin ‘mittere’ has the sense of “let go, 67. 2. ⁂⁂⁂, the _secrets_, here as elsewhere in the funereal texts, 68. 4. The Lord of Law is in the singular, but the imperative ‘remove’ is in 69. 5. The word ⁂⁂ was a puzzle to the oldest transcribers. 70. 6. The MSS. differ hopelessly on this proper name. 71. CHAPTER XV. 72. 1. The text of the Papyrus of Ani has been taken as the basis of the 73. 2. The sun was represented from the earliest period, as we may see in 74. 3. The stars which _set_ were called the 75. 4. Both the Eastern and the Western horizon are mentioned in this 76. 5. ⁂ _ḫeper_, like the German _Werden_, has primarily the sense of 77. 6. _The Land of the Gods_ and _Punit_ are the countries lying east of 78. 7. In many places the divine name Nut has for determinative the sign 79. 8. The Ant and the Abṭu are sometimes represented by the side of the 80. 9. The Look-out of the ship, in Egyptian ⁂⁂⁂, or more fully 81. 10. The Litany here translated is that of the Turin _Todtenbuch_. It is 82. 11. ⁂⁂⁂ ‘the Land of Life,’ one of the names given to the realm 83. 12. ⁂⁂. The word ⁂⁂ _pat_ implies going _round_ like a wheel 84. 13. The Turin text seems better adapted for the basis of a translation 85. 14. A difficult passage, but the readings are unanimous. What is ⁂? 86. 15. Thy mother Isis. So _Ba_. The Turin text has Nut, which is 87. 16. _La_ gives Tatunen; _Af_, Tunen; the Turin recension Tanen, names 88. 18. This hymn has not yet been found in the older MSS. A text carefully 89. 19. ‘Chepera, father of the gods.’ Expressions like this are liable to 90. CHAPTER XVI. 91. CHAPTER XVI. 92. CHAPTER XVI. 93. Chapter 15. 94. CHAPTER XVII. 95. CHAPTER XVII. 96. 1. It would be difficult for us to imagine that the very remarkable 97. CHAPTER XV. 98. 2. It would be impossible to find a more emphatic assertion of the 99. 3. ‘The kinsman of the Morrow,’ literally ‘I know the Morrow.’ The word 100. 4. The earliest texts have either ⁂ ‘speak,’ or ⁂⁂ ‘command.’ 101. 5. The Heron is the bird called ⁂⁂⁂ _bennu_, the numerous 102. 6. The reading of the name ⁂ is proved by the numerous variants of 103. 7. Note that in this scholion Horus, ‘the avenger of his father,’ calls 104. 8. The ⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂ _reḫit_, by whom the oblation is made, the 105. 9. ⁂⁂⁂⁂ _Māāāait_ is supposed to be nitre or salt, or some 106. 10. See the picture of this gate on the Vignette, which shows the 107. 11. _Hu_ and _Sau_, sons of Tmu, and his companions in the Solar bark, 108. 13. The Eye (⁂⁂⁂⁂) being the Sun or Moon, the period of 109. 14. Mehurit is explained in the ancient scholion as ‘the Eye,’ but it is 110. 15. The ‘coffined One’ ⁂⁂⁂ is of course Osiris, as it is 111. 16. ⁂⁂⁂ possessor of completeness, integrity, hence 112. 17. It is most probable that the Cat became the representative of the 113. 18. Neḥebu-kau, ⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂ or ⁂⁂⁂⁂ is the 114. 19. This Devourer has the same functions as the strange animal called 115. 20. The ⁂⁂⁂ _Mesqȧt_ is a ⁂⁂⁂ ‘a place of scourging.’ 116. 21. Cher-âbat and Heliopolis like all the localities here mentioned are 117. 22. Uat’it is literally ‘the pale one,’ a name of the Dawn. But here the 118. 23. Hemen ⁂⁂⁂ is a divinity seldom, if ever, mentioned after 119. 24. The last line of the chapter has suffered in all the best papyri. 120. INTRODUCTION TO CHAPTER XVIII. 121.

On the last day of the month of Choiak the great solemnity of setting 139. 5. On Horus in the Dark, or Blindness, or Invisibility ⁂, see note, 140. 6. Pu and Tepu are named together in the earliest texts as one locality, 141. 7. The feast of ⁂⁂ derives its name, as Goodwin supposes with 142. 8. ⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂ literally the _dead_, that is those who have 143. 9. The vignette is given by M. Naville from the tracing taken by Lepsius 144. 11. In the formula ⁂ ⁂⁂, ⁂ _šes_ is “the measuring 145. CHAPTER XIX. 146. 1. ⁂⁂⁂.

CHAPTER XXIV. 173. 1. _Thigh._ This is the usual translation, which accords with the 174. 2. The names of these two animals (especially of the second) vary 175. 3.

The Egyptian texts have two names for the Heart, ⁂ phonetically 180. 2. _But_, ⁂⁂⁂. This is the most frequent reading both in the 181. 3. _The mead of amaranthine flowers._ ⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂ _ḳaiu_ is the 182. 4. This sentence is a repetition (in other words) of the preceding one. 183. 5. This passage is a very frequent formula not only in the Book of the 184. CHAPTER XXVII. 185. 1. There is a great difference here as in so many other places between 186. 2. _The god of mighty names_ is Thoth, and the later texts read “For 187. 3. ⁂⁂⁂, ⁂⁂. According to another reading 188. CHAPTER XXVIII. 189. 1. _Unbu_, ⁂⁂⁂⁂ is one of the names of the solar god, the 190. 2. _Divine Champions._ ⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂ in the earlier papyri, 191. 3. _Clothest._ ⁂⁂ is a word of many meanings, and the context 192. 4. M. Pierret here breaks off his translation of the chapter, with the 193. 5. _Tablets_ or _records_. ⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂ See _Zeitschr._, 194. 6.

The sense of this myth is obvious. Every star which _sets_ is 220. 4. Instead of Rā the name of Sut is found in the later texts. Bekenrenef 221. 5. _Septu_, ⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂, ⁂⁂, the ‘armed,’ one of the 222. 6.

CHAPTER XXXIX. 257. 1. _Back, down with thee, Stabber._ The first word is clear enough; not 258. 2. _Akar._ The older MSS. differ hopelessly from each other as to the 259. 3. _The proof._ Lit. _the taste_, ⁂⁂ _ṭepit_, with the tongue as a 260. 4. This passage, which would be most interesting if we could only get it 261. CHAPTER XXXIX. =Sâqara. Grab 24.= 262. CHAPTER XXXIX. 263. CHAPTER XL. 264. 1. _Haiu_, the serpent who devours the sun, is undoubtedly the same as 265. 3. The usual chapter begins here.

Here follows the identification of the limbs of the deceased person 289. 9. _Strength_ ⁂⁂⁂⁂, literally a _wall_ or _tower_, like the 290. 11. The interjection ⁂⁂ seems to imply that a second person is 291. 12. All the more recent copies have ⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂, the Sanctuary 292. 13. _Âbaba-k ṭer-ek._ This is only one of the readings of a formula 293.

CHAPTER LIV. 317. 1. _The god in Lion form._ These words are not in Horhotep, the chapter 318. 2. It is a mistake to speak of a _mundane_ egg, of which there is no 319. 3. _Who keepeth opposition in equipoise._ This sense may be inferred 320. 4. _Dawneth_, ⁂⁂⁂, Horhotep; whose text breaks off without a 321. 5. _The Blue_, ⁂⁂⁂ ‘lapis lazuli.’ The French _l’azur_ exactly 322. CHAPTER LV. 323. 2. _Filaments of Cloud._ _Cloud_ is the sense, not the translation of 324. CHAPTER LVI. 325.
