Note 3 — Chapter CX

P. Le Page (Peter Le Page) Renouf translation

The papyrus of Ani, which reads , forces the sense of day upon the sign , which in the sense of turn would have been far more intelligible. There was the ‘Portion of Sutu,’ and the ‘Portion of Horus,’ each being half the world, topographically, or half the twenty-four hours as regards time.
