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.”
