two horizons; his throne is Ra's throne; for he is the Horus of
the two horizons.(646) He is beautiful, this spirit, he is
perfect, he is powerful in both his hands.
6 The two great gods speak to the royal Osiris; they rejoice on
his account; they celebrate his victorious strength, they give him
their protection, they send him their spirit of life; (they say to
him:) He is brilliant like the spirit of the horizon that is the
dwelling of Ra in the heavens;(647) they communicate their words
to him, they give him the power by their authority. He opens the
door of heaven and earth like his father Ra; a spirit shining in

face is a sparrow-hawk, his head is Ra; his eyes are the Rehti,
the two sisters; his nose is Horus of the empyrean; his mouth is
the King of the Ament; his lungs are Nun; his two hands are the
god Secheni;(650) his fingers are the gods who seize him; his body
is Chepra; his heart is Horus, the creator; his chest is the
goddess of life; his spleen is the god Fenti;(651) his lungs are
