The
Chapter Of Being Transformed Into The Prince Of The Tchatchau
Chiefs
The Osiris Nu,
whose word is truth, saith:- I am the god Tem, the maker of the
sky, the creator of the things which are, who cometh forth from
the earth, who made the seed of man to come into being, the Lord
of things, who fashioned the gods, the Great God, who created
himself, the Lord of Life, who made to flourish the Two Companies
of the Gods. Homage to you, O ye divine Lords of things, ye holy
beings, whose seats are veiled! Homage to you, O ye Lords of
Eternity, whose forms are concealed, whose sanctuaries are
mysteries, whose places of abode are not known! Homage to you, O
ye gods, who dwell in the Tenait (Circle of Light)! Homage to
you, O ye gods of the Circle of the country of the Cataracts!
Homage to you, O ye gods who dwell in Amentet! Homage to you, O
ye gods who dwell within Nut! Grant ye to me that I may come
before you, I am pure, I am like a god. I am endowed with a
Spirit-soul. I am strong. I am endowed with a Heart-soul. I bring
unto you incense, and spice, and natron. I have done away with
the chidings of your mouths. I have come, I have done away the
evil which was in your hearts, and I have removed the offences
which appertained to you [against me]. I bring to you deeds of
well-doing, and I present before you truth. I know you. I know
your names. I know your forms which are not known. I come into
being among you. My coming is like unto that god who eateth men,
and who feedeth upon the gods. I am strong before you even like
that god who is exalted upon his pedestal, unto whom the gods
come with rejoicing, and the goddesses make supplication when
they see me. I have come unto you. I have ascended my throne like
your Two Daughters. I have taken my seat in the horizon. I
receive my offerings of propitiation upon my altars. I drink my
fill of seth wine every evening. I come to those who are making
rejoicings, and the gods who live in the horizon ascribe unto me
praises, as the divine Spirit-body, the Lord of mortals. I am
exalted like that holy god who dwelleth in the Great House. The
gods rejoice greatly when they see my beautiful appearances from
the body of the goddess Nut, and when the goddess Nut bringeth me
forth.
