Part 3 — CHAPTER CXXXII.

P. Le Page (Peter Le Page) Renouf translation

Chapter whereby a person is enabled to go round, to visit his dwelling in the Netherworld.

I am the Lion-god who issueth from the Bow,(1) and therefore have I shot forth.(2)

I am the Eye of Horus; and the Eye of Horus is opened at the instant that I reach the strand, coming with happy issue.

I advance and, lo! there is no defect found in me, and the Balance is relieved of my case.(3)
