e two famous sanctuaries of northern Egypt. _ 19 I.e._, An-rut-f. 20 "Ab" is undoubtedly the "heart," and "hat" is the region wherein is the heart; the word may be fairly well rendered by "breast," though the pericardium is probably intended. 21 "Erpat," _i.e._, "tribal chief." 22 The Papyrus of Mes-em-neter (Naville, "Todtenbuch," Bd. II. p. 92) adds: "His heart goeth forth to take up its abode in his body, his heart is renewed before the gods, and he hath gained the mastery over it." 23 The words within brackets are from the Papyrus of Mes-em-neter. _ 24 I.e._, the god of the "Large Face." _ 25 I.e._, the deceased. 26 The words within brackets are translated from the Papyrus of Nebseni (sheet 4). _ 27 I.e._, Mycerinus, a king of the fourth dynasty. _ 28 I.e._, "He of two teeth" (or two horns); the Saite Recension (Lepsius, op. cit., Bl. 16) reads "Bent," _i.e._, "ape." _ 29 I.e._, "Thy face is of right and truth." 30 We should probably add the word "tep" and read "Tep tu-f," "He that is upon his hill," _i.e._, Anubis. 31 The Theban texts mention four crocodiles only. 32 So far back as 1867 the late Dr. Birch identified the animal "maftet" with the lynx. 33 Read, "the lord of the city of Shennu" _i.e._, of Kom Ombos. 34 Or, "I report [my] message to Nebes" (or Nebses). 35 The two opponent goddesses, or Isis and Nephthys(?). 36 These words are from the Papyrus of Ra. 37 The words within brackets are supplied from the Papyrus of Mes-em-neter. _ 38 I.e._, The "land of cold and refreshing water." 39 Literally, "eat." 40 A king of the first dynasty. See also the rubric to the longer version of the 64th from the Papyrus of Nu, infra, p. 47. 41 These words are added from the Papyrus of Nebseni. 42 From the Papyrus of Nu, sheet 13. 43 From Papyrus of Nu, sheet 21. 44 He was the son of Cheops, the builder of the Great Pyramid at Gizeh. 45 Here follows the text of Chapter of "Preserving the Heart," page 25. _ 46 I.e._, the souls of Horus and Ra. 47 This Rubric is taken from the Papyrus of Thenna (see Naville, op. cit., Bd. II. p. 153). 48 From the Papyrus of Ani (Brit. Mus. No. 10,470, sheet 6). 49 The words in brackets are supplied from Naville, op. cit., Bd. II. p. 158. 50 Literally, "Thou has
