The Chapter of Not Letting the Heart of a
Man
be Snatched Away from Him in Khert-neter
The Osiris Ani,
whose word is truth, saith: Get thee back, O messenger of
every god! Art thou come to [snatch away] my heart-case
which liveth? My heart-case which liveth shall not be
given unto thee. [As] I advance, the gods hearken unto my
propitiation [prayer] and they fall down on their faces
[whilst] they are on their own land.
The
Chapter of Not Allowing the Heart to be Carried Away Dead
in Khert-Neter (Papyrus of Nu):
[Nu, whose word is truth, saith]: My heart is with me,
and it shall never come to pass that it be carried away.
I am the Lord of Hearts, the slayer of the heart-case. I
live in truth, I have my being therein. I am Horus, the
dweller in Hearts, [I am] in the Dweller in the body. I
have life by my word, my heart hath being. My heart-case
shall not be snatched away from me, it shall not be
wounded, it shall not be put in restraint if wounds are
inflicted upon me. [If] one take possession of it I shall
have my being in the body of my father Keb and in the
body of my mother Nut. I have not done that which is held
in abomination by the gods. I shall not suffer defeat
[for] my word is truth.
