[The
Chapter] Of Making The Transformation Into A Hawk Of Gold
The Osiris Ani
saith:- I have risen up out of the seshett chamber, like the
golden hawk which cometh forth from his egg. I fly, I alight like
a hawk with a back of seven cubits, and the wings of which are
like unto the mother-of-emerald of the South. I have come forth
from the Sektet Boat, and my heart hath been brought unto me from
the mountain of the East. I have alighted on the Atet Boat, and
there have been brought unto me those who dwelt in their
substance, and they bowed in homage before me. I have risen, I
have gathered myself together like a beautiful golden hawk, with
the head of the Benu, and Ra hath entered in [to hear my speech].
I have taken my seat among the great gods, [the children of] Nut.
I have settled myself, the Sekhet-hetepet (the Field of
Offerings) is before me. I eat therein, I become a Spirit-soul
therein, I am supplied with food in abundance therein, as much as
I desire. The Grain-god (Nepra) hath given unto me food for my
throat, and I am master over myself and over the attributes of my
head.
