Cf. the speech of the crocodile in the tale of the _Predestined Prince_: “Ah, moi, je suis ton destin qui te poursuit; quoi que tu fasses, tu seras ramené sur mon chemin.” Maspero, _Contes Populaires de l’Égypte Ancienne_, 3rd ed. Paris, n. d. p. 175. Footnote 632: Evidently the Egyptian _ka_ or double. Cf. the “Heart Amulet” described by Erman, _Handbook of Egyptian Religion_, pp. 142, 143, where the dead says to his heart: “Oh heart that I have from my mother! Oh heart that belongs to my spirit, do not appear against me as witness, provide no opposition against me before the judges, do not contradict me before him who governs the balance, thou art my spirit that is in my body....” This seems to be a transcription of the 30th Chapter of the _Book of the Dead_, of which there are several variants, none of which however directly suggest that the heart is the accuser to be dreaded. See Budge, _Book of the Dead_, 1909, vol. II. pp. 146-152. Footnote 633: Thus the Μ. τ. σ. says (p. 355, Copt.) “For this I despoiled myself (_i.e._ laid aside my heavenly nature) to bring the mysteries into the Cosmos, for all are under [the yoke of] sin, and all lack the gifts of the mysteries.... Verily, verily I say unto you: until I came into the Cosmos, no soul entered into the light.” Contrast this with the words of the _Pistis Sophia_ proper (p. 250, Copt.): “Those who are of the light have no need of the mysteries, because they are pure light,” which are made the “interpretation” of the text: “They that are whole have no need of a physician, but they that are sick.” See also the _Pistis Sophia_, p. 246, Copt., where it is said of the mysteries promised by Jesus that “they lead every race of men inwards into the highest places according to the χωρημα of the inheritance, so that ye have no need of the rest of the lower mysteries, but you will find them in the two books of Jeû which Enoch wrote etc.” Footnote 634: p. 280, Copt. Footnote 635:
