_Chapter for opening the Tuat._
O Soul most mighty,(1.) here am I: I am come to thee that I may see
thee.
I open the Tuat that I may see my father Osiris and may drive away the
darkness.
I am he whom he loveth. I have come to see my father Osiris, to pierce
the heart of Sutu, and to perform all duties to my father Osiris.
I open all the paths in heaven and upon earth.
I am the son who loveth his father, and I am come as a mummied one,
glorious and well equipt.
Oh, all ye gods and goddesses, the path is made for me.
