Spell 1 — Opening of the Mouth

E.A. Wallis Budge, 1895

I have come to thee, O Osiris, my arms are raised, and I worship thee with the adoration which is thy due. O thou God of the Two Truths, make thou me to be at peace, and drive thou from me all evil thoughts, for in me there is no sin, in me there is no deceit, in me there is no evil. I live upon truth, I have nourished myself upon truth.
