on the plants, on the plants which I had placed there, and it set order among them, and it took up its place in my face, and it doth rule the whole earth. Then Shu and Tefnut brought forth Osiris, and Ḥeru-khenti-ȧn-maa, and Set, and Isis, and Nephthys, and behold, they have produced offspring, and have created multitudinous children in this earth, by means of the beings which came into existence from the creatures which they produced. They invoke my name, and they overthrow their enemies, and they make words of power for the overthrowing of Āpep, over whose hands and arms Aker keepeth ward. His hands and arms shall not exist, his feet and legs shall not exist, and he is chained in one place whilst Rā inflicts upon him the blows which are decreed for him. He is thrown upon his accursed back, his face is slit open by reason of the evil which he hath done, and he shall remain upon his accursed back.”
