[WHEREBY THE DECEASED] SHALL GO IN AFTER COMING FORTH .

Saith Osiris Ani, (4) Osiris the scribe Ani :- Homage to thee, O bull of Amentet, the god Thoth, (5) the king of eternity, is with me . I am the great god near the divine boat, I have fought (6) for thee . I am one of the gods, those divine chiefs, who make (7) Osiris to be victorious over his enemies on the day of the weighing of words . (8) I am thy mediator(?), O Osiris . I am [one] of the gods (9) born of the goddess Nut, who slay the foes of Osiris and who hold in bondage (10) for him the fiend Sebhu . I am thy mediator(?), O Horus . (11) I have fought for thee, and I have put to flight the enemy for thy name's sake . I am Thoth, who made Osiris to be victorious (12) over his enemies on the day of the weighing of words (13) in the great House of the Aged One (i . e ., Ra) who dwelleth in Annu (Heliopolis) . I am Tetteti, the son of Tetteti ; (14) I was begotten in Tattu, I was born in (15) Tattu . I am with those who weep and with the women who bewail (16) Osiris in the two lands of Rekht, and I make Osiris to be victorious over his enemies . (17) Ra commanded Thoth to make Osiris victorious over his enemies ; and that which was decreed [for Osiris] (18) Thoth did for me. I am with Horus on the dav of the clothing of (19) Teshtesh r and of the opening of the wells of water for the purification of the divine being whose "heart moveth not, (2o) and of the drawing the bolt of the door of the concealed things in Re-stau. I am with Horns who [acteth] (21) as the guardian of the left shoulder of Osiris in Sekhern (Letopolis), (22) and I go in and I come forth from among the divine flames on the day of the destruction of the (23) Sebau fiends in Sekhem . I am with Horns on the days (24) of the festivals of Osiris, and of the making of offerings on the Sixth day festival, 3 and on the Tenat festival 4 [which is celebrated] in (25) Annu . I am the ab priest who poureth out libations in Tattu [for] Rere (?) the dweller in the Temple of Osiris s (Heliopolis), [on the day of] (26) casting up the earth . I see the things which are concealed in Re-stau, (27)  read from the book of the festival of the divine Ram 6 [which is] in Tattu . I am the Sern priest (28) [and I perform] his course . I [perform the duties of] the Great Chief of the Work 7 on the day of placing the Hennu 8 boat (29) of the god Seker upon its sledge. I have grasped the spade (3o) on the day of digging the ground in Suten-henen (Heracleopolis Magna) ."

"O ye who make perfected souls (31) to enter into the Temple of Osiris, may ye cause the perfected soul of Osiris, the (32) scribe Ani, to be victorious with you in the Temple of Osiris . May he hear as ye hear ; may he see (33) as ye see ; may he stand as ye stand ; may he sit as ye (34) sit [therein] ."

O ye who give cakes and ale to perfected souls in the Temple (35) of Osiris, give ye cakes and ale at the two seasons (i . e ., at morn and at eve, or sunrise and sunset) to the soul of Osiris Ani, who is (36) victorious before all the gods of Abtu (Abydos), and who is victorious with you ."

O ye who open the way (37) and lay open the paths to perfected souls in the Temple (38) of Osiris, open ye the way and lay open the paths (39) to the soul of Osiris, the scribe and steward of all the divine offerings, Ani [who is victorious] (40) with you. May he enter in confidence, and may he come forth in peace from the Temple of Osiris . May he not (41) be rejected, may he not be turned back, may he enter in [as he] pleaseth, may he come forth [as he] (42) desireth, and may he be victorious . May the things which he commandeth be performed in the Temple of Osiris ; may he walk (43) and may he talk with you, and may he become a glorious being along with you . He hath not been found to rise up (44) there,' and the Balance [having weighed him] is now empty ."

In the Turin papyrus this Chapter ends with the following lines for which no equivalent occurs in the earlier texts :- (16) Let not the decree of judgment passed upon me be placed," or, according to another reading, "made known in the mouths of the multitude . May my soul lift itself up before (17) [Osiris], having been found to have been pure when on earth . May I come before thee, O lord of the gods ; may I arrive at the nome of Double Right and Truth ; may I be crowned 2 like a god endowed with life ; may I give forth light like the company of the gods who dwell in heaven ; may I become (18) like one of you, lifting up [my] feet in the city of Kher-abaut ; may I see the Sektet boat of the sacred Sahu (i . e., Orion) passing forth over the sky ; may I not be driven away from the sight of the lords of the Tuat (underworld)" (19) or, according to another reading, "the company of the gods ; may I smell the sweet savour of the food of the company of the gods, and may I sit down with them . May the Kher-heb (i . e., the Reader) make invocation at [my] coffin, and may I hear the prayers which are recited [when] the offerings [are made] . May I draw "nigh (20) unto the Neshem boat and may neither my soul nor
its lord be turned back ."

"Homage to thee, O thou who art at the head of Amentet, thou Osiris who dwellest in the city of Nifu-ur .I Grant thou that I may arrive in peace in Amentet and that the lords of Ta-tchesertet 2 may receive me and may (21) say unto me, `Hail ! Hail, [thou that comest] in peace!' May they prepare for me a place by the side of the Chief in the presence of the divine "chiefs ; may Isis and Nephthys, the two divine nursing goddesses, receive me at the seasons, and may I come forth (22) "into the presence of Un-nefer (i . e., Osiris) in triumph . May I "follow after Horns through Re-statet, and after Osiris in Tattu ; "and may I perform all the transformations according to my "heart's desire in every place wheresoever my Ira (double) pleaseth "so to do ."

The Judgment (From the Papyrns of Ani)

  - The Scene of the Weighing of the Heart of the Dead  (Vignette - Text)

Vignette : The scribe Ani and his wife Thuthu enter the Hall of Double Maat, wherein the heart, symbolic of the conscience, is to be weighed in the balance against the feather, emblematic of Right and Truth . In the upper register are the gods who sit in judgment, whose names are "Harmachis, the great god in his boat, Temu, Shu, Tefnut the lady of heaven, Seb, Nut the lady of heaven, Isis, Nephthys, Horns the great god, Hathor the lady of Amenta, Hu and Sa" . On the standard of the scales sits the dog-headed ape, the companion of Thoth, the scribe of the gods ; and the god Anubis, jackal-headed, tests the tongue of the balance . On the left of the balance, facing Anubis are :- (t) Ani's "Luck" ; ( 2) the Veskhen or "cubit with human head", thought by some to be connected with the place of birth ; (3) the goddesses Meskhenet and Renenet who presided over the birth, birth-place, and early education of children ; and ( .}) the soul of Ani in the form of a human-headed bird standing on a pylon . On the right of the balance, behind Anubis, stands Thoth, the scribe of the gods, who holds in his hands his reed-pen and palette with which to record the result of the trial . Behind Thoth stands the monster called either Amam, the "Devourer", or Am-mit, the "Eater of the Dead" .

Text : Osiris, the scribe Ani, saith -- "My" heart my mother, my heart my mother, my heart my coming into being . May there be nothing to resist me at [my] judgment ; may there be no opposition to me from the Tchatcha ; may there be no parting of thee from me in the presence of him that keepeth the scales . Thou art my Ka (i. e ., double) within my body [which] knitteth together and strengtheneth my limbs . Mayest thou come forth to the place of happiness to which I am advancing . May the Shenit 3 not cause my name to stink, and may no lies be spoken against me in the presence of the god . Good, good is it for thee to hear Thoth, the judge of Right and Truth of the great company of the gods who are in the presence of Osiris, saith :- "Hear ye this judgment. The heart of Osiris hath in very truth been weighed, and his soul hath stood as a witness for him ; it hath been found true by trial in the Great Balance . There hath not been found any wickedness in him ; he bath not wasted the offerings in the temples ; he hath not done harm by his deeds ; and he hath uttered no evil reports while he was upon earth ."

The great company of the gods reply to Thoth who dwelleth in Khemennu (Hermopolis) :- "That which cometh forth from thy mouth shall be declared true . Osiris, the scribe Ani victorious, is holy and righteous . He hath not sinned, neither hath he done evil against us . It shall not be allowed to the devourer Amemet to prevail over him . Meat-offerings and entrance into the presence of the god Osiris shall be granted unto him, together with a homestead for ever in Sekhet-hetepu,r as unto the followers of Horus ."

  - the deceased in led is before Osiris  (Vignette - Text)

 Vignette : The scribe Ani is led by Horus, the son of Isis, into the presence of Osiris who is enthroned within a shrine in the form of a funeral chest . Osiris has upon his head the Atef crown, and he holds in his hands the crook, the sceptre and the whip, emblematic of authority, dominion, and sovereignty ; from his neck hangs the meni t. His title here is "Osiris, the lord of everlastingness" . Behind him stand Nephthvs, his sister, on his right hand and Isis, his sister and wife, on his left . Before him, standingon a lotus flower, are the gods of the cardinal points or, as they are sometimes called, "the Children of Elorus" and "Children of Osiris" . The first, Alestha, has the head of a man ; the second, Hapi, the head of an ape ; the third, Tuamautef, the head of a jackal ; and the fourth, Qebhsennuf, the head of a hawk. Near the lotus hangs the skin of an animal . The side of the throne of Osiris is painted to rememble that of a funeral chest . The roof of the shrine is supported on pillars with lotus capitals, and is surmounted by a figure of Horus-Sept or Horus-Seker, and by rows of uraci . The pedestal on which the shrine rests is in the form of the hieroglyphic which is emblematic of Maat or "Right and Truth" . Before the shrine is a table of offerings by which, on a reed mat, kneels Ani with his right hand raised in adoration ; in the left hand lie holds the Kherp sceptre . He wears on his head a whitened wig and the so-called "cone", the signification of which is unknown .

Text : ( t) Saith Horus the son of Isis : "I have come to thee, 0 Un-nefer, and I have brought unto thee the Osiris Ani . His heart is [found] righteous . (2) and it bath come forth from the balance ; it bath not sinned against any god or any goddess . Thoth hath weighed it according to the decree pronounced (3) unto him by the company of the gods ; and it is most true and righteous . Grant that cakes and ale may be given unto him, and let him appear in the presence of the god Osiris ; (4) and let him be like unto the followers of Horns for ever and "for ever ."

(I) And Osiris Ani (2) saith : "Behold, I am in thy presence, 0 lord of (3) Amentet . There is no sin in my (4) body . I have not spoken that which is not true (5) knowingly, nor have I done aught with a false heart . Grant thou that I may be like unto those favoured ones who are in thy following, (6) and that I may be an Osiris greatly favoured of the beautiful god, and beloved of the lord of the world . [I] who am, indeed, a royal scribe who loveth thee, Ani, victorious before the god Osiris ."

Thou goest forth each day over heaven and earth and art made strong each day by thy mother Nut. Thou passest through the heights of heaven, thy heart swelleth with joy ; and the Lake of Testes O is content thereat . The Serpent-fiend bath fallen, his arms are hewn off, the knife hath cut asunder his joints . Rd liveth in Maat I the beautiful . The Sektet boat draweth on and cometh into port ; the South and the North, the West and the East turn to praise thee, O thou primeval substance of the earth who didst come into being of thine own accord .

May I see the Abu fish at [its] time of "(14) coming into being (?) ; may I see the Ant fish as it becometh "the pilot of the Ant boat in its waters .

(r6) None shall "obtain by fraud possession of the things which belong to the "divine father, who bath need of abundance, the tongue (?) of "veneration, (i7) the lord of Abtu (Abydos) ."

The merchant Qenna, victorious, saith : "Homage to thee, O "Heru-khuti-Temu Heru (i8) Khepera, I thou mighty hawk, who "makest glad the body [of man], thou beautiful of face by reason "of thy two great plumes! Awake, (ig) O lord of beauty, at "dawn when the company of the gods and mortals say unto "thee, `Hail!' They (20) sing hymns of praise unto thee at eventide, and the starry deities also adore thee . O thou firstborn, "who dost lie motionless . . . . (21) ; thy mother sheweth loving- "kindness unto thee daily. Ra liveth and the serpent-fiend Nak "is dead ; thou art in good case, for thine enemy (22) hath fallen "headlong . Thou sailest over heaven with life and strength . The "goddess Nehebka is in the Atet boat, and thy boat rejoiceth ; "(23) thy heart is glad, and the two uraei goddesses rise upon "thy brow"

Hymn to Ra when he riseth (From the Papyrus of Ani)

Vignette : The scribe Ani standing, with hands raised in adoration, before a table of offerings consisting of haunches of beef, loaves of bread, and cakes, vases of wine and oil, fruits, and flowers . He wears a fringed linen garment and has a wig, necklace, bracelets, etc . Behind him stands his wife Thuthu, a member of the College of Amen-Ra at Thebes ; she is similarly robed and holds a sistrum, a vine branch, and a mendt, or emblem of pleasure, in her hands .

Text : (I) A HYMN OF PRAISE TO RA WHEN HE RISETH IN THE EASTERN PART OF' HEAVEN . Behold Osiris, Ani the scribe of the holy offerings of all the gods, (2) who saith :- "Homage to thee, 0 thou who halt come as Khepera, Khepera "the creator of the gods . Thou risest, thou shinest, (3) thou makest light [in] thy mother [the goddess Nut] ; thou art crowned `king of the gods . [Thv] mother Nut doeth an act of homage unto thee with both her hands . (4) The land of Mann "receiveth thee with satisfaction, and the goddess Maat embraceth thee both at morn and at eve . May he (i . e . Ra) give "glory, and power, and triumph, (5) and a coming forth as a "living soul to see Heru-khuti (i . e ., Horns of the two horizons) "to the double (ka) of Osiris, the scribe Ani, victorious before "Osiris, (6) who saith : Hail, all ye gods of the Temple of "the Soul, who weigh heaven and earth in the balance, and "who provide sepulchral meals I in abundance. Hail, Tatunen, "thou One, (7) thou Creator of mankind and Maker of the "substance of the gods of the south and of the north, of the `west and of the east . 0 come and acclaim ye Ra, the lord "of heaven, (8) the Prince (Life, Health, Strength!), the Creator "of the gods, and adore ye him in his beautiful form at his "rising in the Atet boat . (g) They who dwell in the heights "and they who dwell in the depths 2 worship thee. The god "Thoth and the goddess Maat have written down [thy course] for "thee daily and every day. Thine enemy the serpent hath been "given over to (io) the fire, the serpent-fiend Sebau hath fallen "down headlong ; his arms have been bound in chains, and his "legs hath Ra hacked off from him . The children of (i i) impotent "revolt shall nevermore rise up . The Temple of the Aged One "keepeth festival, and the voice of those who rejoice is in the "mighty dwelling. (12) The gods exult when they see Rd as he "riseth, and when his beams flood the world with light . The "Majesty (13) of the holy god goeth forth and advanceth even "unto the land of Manu ; he maketh brilliant the earth at his "birth each day : he journeyeth on to the place where he was "yesterday . (14) 0 be thou at peace with me, and let me behold "thy beauties ; 4 may I journey forth upon earth, may I smite the "Ass ; may I crush (i5) the serpent-fiend Sebdu ; may I destroy "Apep in his hour ; may I see the Abtu fish at his season, and "the Ant fish [piloting] (z6) the Ant boat in its lake . May I see "Horns acting as steersman, with the god Thoth and the goddess "Maat, one on each side of him ; may I grasp the bows of the "(i7) Sektet boat, and the stern of the Atet boat. May he (i. e ., "Ra) grant unto the double (Ira) of Osiris Ani to behold the disk "of the Sun and to see the Moon-god without ceasing, each and "every day ; and (t8) may my soul come forth and walk hither "and thither (rg) and whithersoever it pleaseth . (20) May my "name be proclaimed (21), and may it be found upon the board "(22) of the table of offerings ; may offerings (23) be made unto Cline in my presence, even as [they are made unto] the followers "(24) of Horus ; may there be made ready for me (25) a seat "in the boat of the Sun on the day when (26) the god goeth "forth ; and may I be received (27) into the presence of Osiris "in the land of victory".
