Of Travelling In The Boat Of Ra
Reading edition
[From the Papyrus of Nu (British Museum No. 10,477, sheet 28).]
Another Chapter of travelling in the Great Boat of Ra. The Osiris Nu, the overseer of the palace, the chancellor-in-chief, triumphant, saith:
“Behold now, O ye luminaries in Annu, ye people in Kher-āba, the god Kha(?) hath been born; his cordage hath been [pg 126] completed, and the instrument wherewith he maketh his way hath [he] grasped firmly. I have protected the implements of the gods, and I have delivered the boat Kha(?) for him. I have come forth into heaven, and I have travelled therein with Rā in the form of an ape, and have turned back the paths of Nut at the staircase of the god Sebek.”
