Spell for protecting the Bark of Re O you who emerge from the waters, who escape from the flood and climb on to the stern of your bark, may you indeed climb on to the stern of your bark, may you be more hale than you were yesterday. You have included N, a worthy spirit, in your crew; if you are hale, he will be hale. O Re in this your name of Re, if you pass by the Eye of seven cubits with a pupil of three cubits, you will make N hale, the worthy spirit in your crew; if you are hale, he will be hale. O Re in this your name of Re, if you pass by the dead who are upside down, you shall cause N the worthy spirit to stand up on his feet; if you are hale, he will be hale. Your body, O Re, is everlasting by reason of the spell. To be recited over a strip of royal linen on which this spell has been written in dried myrrh; to be placed on the throat of the blessed dead on the day of burial. If this protective spell is placed on his throat for him, praises will be made for him as for the gods, he shall be united with the Followers of Horus; the starry sky shall be made firm for him in the presence of Him who is with Sothis, his corpse shall be a god, together with his relatives, for ever, and a bush shall be planted for him over the breast by Menqet. It was the Majesty of Thoth who did this for the Majesty of the vindicated King of Upper and Lower Egypt Osiris through desire that the sunlight should rest on his corpse.

Spell for building a mansion on earth Geb is joyful when I hasten over him on his body, and men, the children of their fathers, give me praise when they see that Seshat brings the Destructive One. Anubis has summoned me to build a mansion which is on earth, its foundation-plan is in Heliopolis, its circuit is in Kheraha, he who is pre-eminent in Letopolis is the scribe responsible for making new what belongs to it; men bring to it bowls of water, and the gangs (work at it). Thus said Osiris to the gods who are in his suite: 'Let us go and see the building of this mansion of this equipped spirit who today has come newly among you. Grant that he may be respected and give him the praise due to him who is favoured there, and you will see what I have done and spoken.' Thus said Osiris to this god: 'Today he has come newly among you; it is Osiris who brings him herds, it is the south wind which brings him barley, it is the north wind which brings him emmer which the earth has ripened.' The utterance of Osiris has announced me, he who was destroyed has turned himself over from upon his left side and has set himself upon his right side. Men, gods, spirits and the dead have seen, they spend their time in praise, and I am favoured thereby.

Spell for causing that N be remembered in the realm of the dead A name has been given to me in the Per-wer, my name has been remembered in the Per-neser, on that night of reckoning the years and of counting the months. I am this builder, I sit on the eastern side of the sky. As for any god who shall not come following after me, I will declare his name to those who are yet to be.

Spell for escaping from the net O you who look backward, you with power in your heart, you fishermen who net at the river-bank and open up the earth: O you fishermen, children of your fathers, you takers of your catch, who go round about in the abode of the waters, you shall not catch me in this net of yours in which you trap the wanderers, the floats of which are in the sky and its weights on earth. I have escaped from its snare, and I have rejoiced as Henu; I have escaped from its clutch, and I have appeared as Sobk, I have used my arms for flying from you, even you who fish and net with hidden fingers. I know the reel in it; it is the middle finger of Sokar. I know the guard-beam in it; it is the shank of Shesmu. I know the valve in it; it is the hand of Isis. I know the cutter in it; it is the knife of Isis with which the navel-string of Horus was cut. I know the name of the floats in it and of its weight; they are knee-cap and the knee of the Double Lion. I know the name of its cords with which it catches fish; they are the sinews of Atum. I know the names of the fishermen who use it; they are the Earth-gods, the forefathers of the Swallowers. I know the names of its arms; they are the arms of the Great God who gives judgement in Heliopolis on the night of the half-monthly festival in the Mansion of the Moon ... I know the name of the plateau on which it is pulled tight; it is the plateau of the firmament on which the gods stand. I know the name of the agent who receives its fish; it is 'Marker of jars, the agent of the god'. I know the name of the table on which he lays it; it is the table of Horus who sits alone in darkness and cannot be seen, of whom those who have not given him praise are afraid. I have come and have appeared as a great one, I have goverened the land, I have gone down to the earth in the two Great Barks, and the Great One has made presentation to me in the midst of the Mansion of the Prince. I have come as a fisherman, with my net and my reel in my hand, my knife in my hand, and my cutter in my hand; I go to and fro and I catch with my net. I know the name of the reel which closes the mouth of the opening; it is the middle finger of Osiris. I know the name of the fingers which hold it; they are the fingers which are on the hand of Re and the nails which are on the hand of Hathor. I know the name of the cords which are on this reel; they are the sinews of the Lord of the Common Folk. I know the name of its valve; it is the hand of Isis. I know the name of its netting; it is ... of the day. I know the names of the fishermen who use it; they ae the Earth-gods who are in the presence of Re. I know the name of ...; they are everyone who is in the pesence of Geb. What you have brought and eaten, I have brought and eaten; you have swallowed what Geb and Osiris swallowed. O you who look behind you, O you who have power in your heart, fish and catch for him who opens the earth, O you fishers, children of your fathers, who entrap within Nefersenet, you shall not catch me in your net, you shall not entrap me in your net in which you catch the inert ones and entrap those who are throughout the earth, for I know it, I know it from its upper floats to its lower weights. Here am I, I have come with my reel in my hand, my peg in my hand, my valve in my hand and my knife in my hand; I have come and I have entered; I smite and I catch. Do you know that I know the name of the catcher of fledglings? I break his bow. I smite him and I put him in his place. As for the peg which is in my hand, it is the shank of Shesmu; as for the reel which is in my hand, it is the finger of Sokar; as for the valve which is in my hand, it is the hand of Isis; as for the knife which is in my hand, it is the decapitating sword of Shesmu. Here am I; I have come. Here am I; I sit in the bark of Re, I ferry across the Lake of the Two Knives in the northern sky, I hear the words of the gods, I do as they do, I rejoice as they rejoice over my ka, I live on what they live on. I ascend on your ladder which my father Re made for me, and Horus and Seth grip my hands.

The deceased appeals to Thoth to vindicate him before the tribunals of the gods O Thoth, you who vindicated Osiris against his enemies, may you entrap the enemies of N in the presence of the tribunals of every god and every goddess: In the presence of the great tribunal which is in Heliopolis on that night of battle and of felling those who rebelled. In the presence of the great tribunal which is in Busiris on that night of erecting the two djed-pillars. In the presence of the great tribunal which is in Letopolis on that night of performing the night-ritual in Letopolis. In the presence of the great tribunal which is in Pe and Dep on that night of confirming the heritage of Horus in respect of the property of his father Osiris. In the presence of the great tribunal which is in the Two Banks on that night when Isis mourned for her brother Osiris. In the presence of the great tribunal which is in Abydos on that night of the haker-festival and of the numbering of the dead and the spirits. In the presence of the great tribunal which is on the Road of the Dead on that night of making inquiry into him who is nothing. In the presence of the great tribunal which is in the Great Devastation. In the presence of the great tribunal which is in Naref. In the presence of the great tribunal which is in Rosetjau on that night when Horus was vindicated against his enemies. Horus has become great happily, the Two Conclaves are pleased about it, and Osiris is glad. O Thoth, vindicate N against his enemies in the tribunal of every god and every goddess, and in those tribunals of Osiris which are behind the shrine.
