Chapter 151

have been taken out and made into a special chapter, which in papyrus London, 9900 (_Aa_) occurs in two different forms. I called them CLIA _bis_ and CLIA _ter_, the second one being only an abridgement of the first. Vignettes and titles are not the same for these two chapters. That translated, CLIA _bis_, is the longest of the two. The title of the other one is: the _Chapter of the Mysterious Head_, and the vignette thereof consists of a mummy’s head.

In comparing this chapter with the words of Anubis we had before, we find the explanation of expressions like this: thy eyebrows are with Anubis.

1. ⁂. This word has always been translated _fingers_, a sense which is evidently wrong in this place, where parts of the head only are mentioned, and when one would expect the hair or the beard.

I suppose that this obscure sentence means that since everything in him is divine the design or colour of his fingers (?) was taken from the books of Thoth.
