Driving Back the Merti
[From the Papyrus of Nu (British Museum No. 10,477, sheet 8).]
The Chapter of driving back the two Merti goddesses. Nu, the chancellor-in-chief, triumphant, saith:
“Homage to you, ye two Rekht goddesses,35 ye two Sisters, ye two Mert goddesses, I bring a message to you concerning my magical words. I shine from the Sektet boat, I am Horus the son of Osiris, and I have come to see my father Osiris.”
