7. _I have come to an end._ The first two words of this chapter are evidently copied from the end of the last, but instead of _menḥu_, ‘sacrificial slaughter,’ the notion of _menȧ_ or _meni_ ‘coming to an end,’ has been substituted. Later texts read “I do _not_ come to an end.” 8. _Its hair._ All this paragraph sounds very strangely, and translators are tempted to understand that the _hair_, _side-lock_, and _skin_ of the deceased are acted upon by the winds.[82] But the feminine suffix shows that the converse is the case. The speaker catches the air and distributes it, as we are afterwards told, to the faithful departed. ----- Footnote 82: But we “catch Time by the forelock,” and so did the Greeks. ------------------------------------ CHAPTER LXXI. _Chapter whereby one cometh forth by day._(1.) O Divine Hawk, who comest forth in Heaven, Lord of Mehurit.(2.) Make thou me sound,(3.) even as thou hast made thyself sound, who revealest thyself,(4.) who disrobest thyself, and presentest thyself to the Earth. May his will towards me be done by the Lord of the Lord of the One Face(5.). I am the Hawk in the Tabernacle and I pierce through [that which is upon] the Vail.(6.) Here is Horus, the Son of Isis: Horus the Son of Isis. Make thou me sound, even as thou hast made thyself sound, who revealest thyself, who disrobest thyself, and presentest thyself to the Earth. May his will towards me be done by the Lord of the One Face. I am the Hawk in the Southern Heaven, and Thoth in the Northern Heaven, who appease the Flame when raging and who convey Law to the god who loveth it. Here is Thoth: Thoth. Make thou me sound, even as thou hast made thyself sound, who revealest thyself, who disrobest thyself, and presentest thyself to the Earth. May his will towards me be done by the Lord of the One Face. I am Unbu of En-areref, the Flower of the Abode of Occultation. Here is Osiris: Osiris. Make thou me sound, even as thou hast made thyself sound, who revealest thyself, who disrobest thyself, and presentest thyself to the Earth. May his will towards me be done by the Lord of the One Face. O thou who art upon thy two legs [_or_ who art terrible upon thy two legs], at thine own hour, owner of the Two Twin Souls, and who livest in Two Twin Souls. Make thou me sound, even as thou hast made thyself sound, who revealest thyself, who disrobest thyself, and presentest thyself to the Earth. May his will towards me be done by the Lord of the One Face. O thou who circlest round, within thine Egg, Lord of Mehurit. Make thou me sound, even as thou hast made thyself sound, who revealest thyself, who disrobest thyself, and presentest thyself to the Earth. May his will towards me be done by the Lord of the One Face.
