Nemmes,the god in Lion form hathreachedthe Nemmes to me,
and wings are given to me.
He hath givenme strength throughhis back, throughhis back,
and through his most powerfulmight,that I fall not upon Shu.(8)
I propitiate my fair brother, the Master of the two Uraei.
I, even I, am he who knoweth the paths of Heaven ; its breezes
are upon me, the raging Bullstoppethme not as I advance whither
soever therelieth a wreck in the Field of Eternity, and I pilot
myselftowardsthe darkness and the suffering of the deceased ones
of Osiris.
I come dailythroughthe house of the god in Lion form,and I
passforthfromit to the house of Isis the Mighty, that I may see
glorious,mysteriousand hidden matters,evenas she hath caused
me to see the divine offspringof the Great One.
