_Chapter whereby one proceedeth into Heaven by the side of Rā._(1.)
Oh Rā(2.) who art shining this night: if there be any one among thy
followers, let him present himself living as a follower of Thoth, who
causeth Horus to come forth this night.
The heart of the Osiris is glad, because he is one at the head of them.
His adversaries are brought to a stop by the warriors(3.) of the Osiris
_N_, who is a follower of Rā, and hath taken his arms of steel.
He cometh to thee, his father Rā, he followeth Shu and calleth for the
Crown. He putteth on Hu(4.) and is arrayed with the Lock which is on the
path of Rā and is his glory.
And he arriveth at the Aged one, at the confines of the Mount of Glory,
and the crown awaiteth him.
The Osiris _N_ raiseth it up.
Thy Soul is with thee, and strong is thy Soul through the terror and the
might which belong to thee, Oh Osiris _N_, who utterest the decrees
which Rā hath spoken in Heaven.
Hail to thee, great god in the East of Heaven, who enterest into the
Bark of Rā in the form of the Divine Hawk and executest the decrees
which have been uttered; thou who strikest with thy sceptre from thy
Bark.
The Osiris _N_ entereth into thy Bark and saileth peacefully to the Fair
West; and Tmu saith to him: Art thou coming in?
Mehenit is millions upon millions in length from Amur to Ta-ur(5.) an
endless river wherein the gods move.
(6.) ... whose path is in the fire; and they travel in the fire who come
behind him.
