Note 3 — Chapter I
P. Le Page (Peter Le Page) Renouf translation
M. Déveria has produced excellent evidence showing that maāt-ḫeru has the sense of ‘victorious, triumphant.’ But the sense of véridique is untenable. ḫeru is ‘voice’ not ‘speech.’ In Proceedings S.B.A., Vol. VI, p. 192, note, I have quoted a passage from a chapter (now numbered 181 in M. Naville’s edition) in which signifies ‘want of success, failure.’
