THE HEART OF CARNELIAN

[From the Papyrus of Ani (British Museum No. 10,470, sheet 33).]

The Chapter of a heart of Carnelian. Osiris Ani, triumphant, saith:

“I am the Bennu, the soul of Rā, and the guide of the gods in the Tuat (underworld). Their divine souls come forth upon earth to do the will of their kas; let, therefore, the soul of Osiris Ani come forth to do the will of his ka.”
