The Egyptian Book of the dead

Note 1 — Chapter LXXXIII

P. Le Page (Peter Le Page) Renouf translation

There is here a play on the words pa, ḫeper, ruṭ and šet. The Turning One is the god Chepera. The Tortoise derives its name (the hider), from the habit of drawing its body within its shell. On the flight of the Bennu see the first note of next chapter.
