Spell 64 — Chapter of Coming Forth by Day

E.A. Wallis Budge, 1895

I am the djed-pillar of gold which was set up to give light in the darkness. I was born in the Field of Offerings and the Field of Reeds. I have stood upright as Osiris stood upright. I rest in the horizon. I shine from the horizon. I watch over the horizon. I am he who is in the midst of his Eye.
