These incidents of the scorpions are not related by Plutarch but are known to us from Egyptian sources. The barbarous legend of the begetting of Horus by the dead Osiris is told in unambiguous language in the Pyramid Texts, and it is illustrated by a monument which represents the two sister goddesses hovering in the likeness of hawks over the god, while Hathor sits at his head and the Frog-goddess Heqet squats in the form of a huge frog at his feet. See J. H. Breasted, _Development of Religion and Thought in Ancient Egypt_, p. 28, with note 2; E. A. Wallis Budge, _Osiris and the Egyptian Resurrection_, i. 280. Harpocrates is in Egyptian _Her-pe-khred_, “Horus the child” (A. Wiedemann, _Religion of the Ancient Egyptians_, p. 223). Plutarch, who appears to distinguish him from Horus, says that Harpocrates was begotten by the dead Osiris on Isis, and that he was born untimely and was weak in his lower limbs (_Isis et Osiris_, 19). Elsewhere he tells us that Harpocrates “was born, incomplete and youthful, about the winter solstice along with the early flowers and blossoms” (_Isis et Osiris_, 65).
