CHAPTER VIII

.

_Chapter of opening the Tuat by day._

The Hour(1.) discloseth what the head of Thoth keepeth close, who giveth might to the Eye of Horus.(2.)

And I call upon the Eye of Horus which gleams as an ornament upon the brow of Râ, the father of the gods.

I am that Osiris, the Lord of Amenta, and Osiris knoweth his day, and that it is in his lot that he should end his being, and be no more.(3.)

I am Sutu, the father of the gods, the imperishable one.

Stay, Horus, for he is counted among the gods.
