P. Le Page (Peter Le Page) Renouf translation

I have kept Renouf’s translation, although I consider it is erroneous. The word , means reconstitute, restore, and not avenge. The common expression, Horus the avenger of his father, should be translated: “Horus who reconstitutes the body of his father” torn to pieces by Sut.
