'^s^-^lLi

"May the Soul, who begetteth [all] forms of
existence, whose body is more hidden than his births,
who sendeth forth the light, when the two utchats
come into existence, his soul cometh into existence,
and his body [his] mother, and who is abundant of
forms, make the enemies of Shai-enen afraid, and
grant that he may come into the underworld with the

........and that he may not be turned back for

ever and ever!

"O Soul, mighty of terror, lord of fear, mighty of
victory, who makest fire to spring up from the two
perfect utchats, thou being who art mighty in forms of
existence .... who giveth and who hideth his body
in Jife, and whose form cometh into existence as an

emanation of......the mighty one of victory, who

maketh many his forms of existence, grant thou that
Shai-enen triumphant may come forth and go into
[the underworld] for ever."
