Chapter LX Another Chapter

Let the doors of Heaven be open to me, let the doors of Kabhu be thrown wide to me; by Thoth and by Hapi, the great Coverer of Heaven, at daybreak.

Grant ye that I may have the command of water even as the mighty Sut had the command of his enemies on the Day of Disaster to the Earth. May I prevail over the Long-armed ones in their corners,69 even as that glorious and ready god prevaileth over them, whose name they know not. May I prevail over the Long-armed ones.

Notes

69. The four cardinal points; the Eastern and the Western ⁂⁂, and the Southern and the Northern ⁂⁂⁂.
