Text : (I) THE CHAPTER OF COMING FORTH BY DAY AND OF
GAINING THE MASTERY OVER ENEMIES.

"Hail, [thou] who shinest from the Moon and who sendest
"forth light therefrom, thou comest forth among thy multitudes,
"and thou goest round about, let me rise," or (as others say),
"let me be brought in among the Klzus, and let the underworld
"be opened [unto me] . (2) Behold, I have come forth on this
"day, and I have become a Khu (or a shining being) ; therefore
shall the Khus let me live, and they shall cause my enemies to
be brought to me in a state of misery in the presence
"of the divine sovereign princes . The divine ka (double) of my
"mother (3) shall rest in peace because of this, and I shall stand
"upon my feet and have a staff of gold," or (as others say),
"a rod of gold in my hand, wherewith I shall inflict cuts on
"the limbs [of mine enemy] and shall live . The legs of Sothis
"are stablished, and I am born in their state of rest ."
