Chapter Cxxxvia

Chapter whereby one is conveyed in the Bark of Rā.

Lo the Light which riseth up in Cher-āba.

He is born, he of the strong cord, his cable is at an end, and his rudder hath been taken in hand.

I poise the divine machinery by which I raise up the Bark to the cord above head, by means of which I come forth into Heaven, and am conveyed to Nut.

I am conveyed by it along with Rā. I am conveyed by it like the Kaf.

I stop the path at the Uārit of Nut, at the staircase where Seb and Nut bewail their hearts.
