Hymn to Isis

E.A. Wallis Budge, 1895

Homage to thee, O Isis the great, the god-mother, lady of Ra-setjau, queen of the gods, who comest forth and appearest with the disk and horns of the Moon-god! Lady of the words of power, thou art the mother of the god Ra, thou art the lady of the word of power and of the book of Thoth. Hear my prayer and grant me life, health and strength.
