ebek] fished
for them and he found them, and the mother of Horus made them to grow in
the places to which they belonged. Then Sebek, the lord of his papyrus
swamp, said, 'I went and I found the place where they had passed with my
fingers on the edge of the waters, and I enclosed them in [my] net: and
strong was that net.' And Ra said, 'So then, there are fish with the god
Sebek, and [he] hath found the hands and arms of Horus for him in the land
of fish;' and [that] land became the land of the city of Remu (_i.e._,
Fish). And Ra said, 'A land of the pool, a land of the pool to this net.'
Then were the hands of Horus brought to him at the uncovering of his face
at the festivals of the month and half month in the Land of Remu. And Ra
said, 'I give the city of Nekhen to Horus for the habitation of his two
arms and hands, and his face shall be uncovered before his two hands and
arms in the city of Nekhen; and I give into his power the slaughtered
beings who are in them at the festivals of the month and half month.' Then
Horus said, 'Let me carry off Tuamautef and Qebhsennuf, and let them watch
over my body; and if they are allowed to be there, then shall they be
subservient to the god of the city of Nekhen.' And Ra said, 'It shall be
granted unto thee there and in the city, of Senket (_i.e._, Sati), and
there shall be done for them what hath been done for those who dwell in
the city of Nekhen, and verily they shall be with thee.' And Horus said,
'They have been with thee and [now] they shall be with me, and shall
hearken unto the god Suti when he calleth upon the Souls of Nekhen.' Grant
to me [that I, even I, may pass on to the Souls of Nekhen, and that I may
unloose the bonds of Horus]. I, even I, know the Souls of Nekhen, namely,
Horus, Tuamautef, and Qebhsennuf."

THE CHAPTER OF KNOWING THE SOULS OF KHEMENNU (Hermopolis).

"The goddess Maat is carried by the arm at the shining of the goddess
Neith in the city of Mentchat, and at the shining of the Eye when it is
weighed. I am carried over by it and I know what it bringeth from the city
of Kesi,(76) and I will neither declare it unto men nor tell it unto the
gods. I have come, being the envoy of Ra, to stablish Maat upon the arm at
the shining of Neith in the city of Mentchat and to adjudge the eye to him
that shall scrutinize it. I have come as a power through
