Spell 125 — Negative Confession, Opening Declaration

E.A. Wallis Budge, 1895

In truth — for I know you and I know your name, and I know the names of the forty-two gods who are with you in this Hall of Two Truths, who live on those who cherish evil and who gulp down their blood — behold, I have come to you, and I bring you truth; I have not done evil against men.
