Spell 1 — Prayer to Osiris

E.A. Wallis Budge, 1895

O Osiris, thou art my father, and I am thy son Horus. I have come hither to behold thy beauties. I have come to thee that I may be at peace with thee. My heart standeth upright and true. Grant thou that I may pass through the underworld in peace. Establish thou my soul as thou didst establish thine own, O thou who hearest millions of prayers.
