The Egyptian Book of the dead by P. Le Page Renouf and Edouard Naville

CHAPTER XCV.

_Chapter whereby is opened the place wherein Thoth resteth._ I am the Dread one(1.) in Storm, who guard the Great one(2.) against assault. I smite like the Flint-god: I sprinkle like the Sprinkling-god.(3.) I am the protection(4.) of the Great one against assault and I give vigour to the sword which is in the hand of Thoth(5.) in the storm. NOTES. The papyrus _Ad_ gives this chapter the title of “assuming the form of the Smen-goose,” and Dr. Birch published the text of this papyrus in the _Zeitschrift_ of 1869 (p. 25) as one of those additional chapters which “do not occur in the Ritual of Turin.” This is of course an error of oversight. This chapter is in the Turin _Todtenbuch_, and the papyrus _Ad_ merely gives it under an erroneous title, which was evidently meant for another text.
