Spell 30B — The Heart Scarab

E.A. Wallis Budge, 1895

My heart — my mother. My heart — my mother. My heart whereby I came into being. May naught stand up to oppose me at my judgment. May there be no opposition to me from the Tchatcha. May there be no parting of thee from me in the presence of him who keeps the Scales! Thou art my Ka, the dweller in my body; the god Khnemu who settest firm my limbs.
