from the knives. Hail, thou who art in charge of the hidden boat, who dost
fetter Apep, grant that I may bring along the boat, and that I may coil up
the ropes and that I may sail forth therein. This land is baleful, and the
stars have overbalanced themselves and have fallen upon their faces
therein, and they have not found anything which will help them to ascend
again: their path is blocked by the tongue of Ra. Antebu [is] the guide of
the two lands. Seb is stablished [through] their rudders. The power which
openeth the Disk. The prince of the red beings, I am brought along like
him that hath suffered shipwreck; grant that my _Khu_, my brother, may
come to me, and that [I] may set out for the place whereof thou knowest."
