Of The Crocodile

From the Papyrus of Nu (British Museum No. 10,477, sheet 11).]

THE CHAPTER OF MAKING THE TRANSFORMATION INTO A CROCODILE. The
chancellor-in-chief, Nu, triumphant, saith:

“I am the divine crocodile which dwelleth in his terror, I am the divine
crocodile, and I seize [my prey] like a ravening beast. I am the great and
Mighty Fish which is in the city of Qem-ur. I am the lord to whom bowing
and prostrations [are made] in the city of Sekhem.”
