th proceedeth from him, it hath obtained it by prayer from him. I have had granted to it and awarded to it, the glow of heart at the hour of the god of the Broad Face, and have offered the sacrificial cakes in Hermopolis. Let not this Whole Heart of mine be torn from me.[G] It is I who entrust to you its place, and vehemently stir your Whole Heart towards it in Sechit-hotepit and the years of triumph over all that it abhors, and taking all provisions at thine appointed time from thine hand after thee. And this Whole Heart of mine is laid upon the tablets of Tmu, who guideth me to the caverns of Sutu and who giveth me back my Whole Heart which hath accomplished its desire in (the) presence of the Divine Circle which is in the Netherworld. The sacrificial joint and the funereal raiment, let those who find them bury them. CHAPTER XXIXA. _Chapter whereby the Heart of a person may not be taken from him in the Netherworld._ Back thou Messenger[H] of thy god! Art thou come to carry off by violence this Whole Heart of mine, of the Living.[I] The gods have regard to my offerings and fall upon their faces, all together, upon their own earth.[J] Certain chapters referring to the Heart were incised upon hard precious stones,[K] and used as amulets and talisman. The XXVIth upon Lapis-lazuli, the XXVIIth on green Felspar, the XXXth on Serpentine. The following was usually incised on Carnelian. CHAPTER XXIXB. _Chapter of the Heart; upon Carnelian._ I am the Heron, the Soul of Ra, who conducts the Glorious ones to the Tuat. It is granted to their Souls (_Baiu?_) to come forth upon the Earth, to do whatsoever their Genius (_Ka?_) willeth. It is granted to the Soul (_Ba?_) of the Osiris (the name of the deceased was inserted here) to come forth upon the Earth to do whatsoever his Genius (_Ka?_) willeth. CHAPTER XXXA. _Chapter whereby the Heart of a person is not kept back from him in the Netherworld._ Heart mine which is that of my Mother, Whole Heart mine which was that of my coming upon Earth, Let there be no estoppel against me through evidence; let not hindrance be made to me by the Divine Circle; let there not be a fall of the Scale[L] against me in (the) presence of the great god, Lord of Amenta
