Of Bringing Men Back to Earth

[From the Papyrus of Ani (British Museum No. 10,470, sheet 18).]

The Chapter of causing a man to come back to see his house upon earth.117 The Osiris Ani saith:

“I am the Lion-god coming forth with extended strides. I have shot arrows and I have wounded the prey; I have shot arrows and I have wounded the prey. I am the Eye of Horus, and I pass through the Eye of Horus at this season. I have arrived at the furrows; let the Osiris Ani advance in peace.”118
