Chapter III
P. Le Page (Peter Le Page) Renouf translation
Another chapter like it.
Oh Tmu, who proceedest from Ur-henhenu,(1) who art resplendent as the Lion-faced,(2) and who strewest thy words to those who are before thee;
Here cometh the faithful N, from the band of those who do the bidding of thy words.
O ye seamen of Râ at the gloaming of the day, let N live after death, like Râ daily.
Here the helmsman: As Râ is born from Yesterday, so he too is born from Yesterday, and as every god exulteth in life, so shall N exult even as they exult in life.
I am Thoth as he goeth forth from the House of the Prince in Heliopolis.(3)
Notes.
The only ancient copy of this chapter is in the papyrus of Amen-neb (Ae), and here it is imperfect.
