P RE FACE.

THE ancient Egyptian hymns and religious texts printed in the following pages form a representative collection of the various compositions which the Egyptians inscribed upon the walls of tombs and sarcophagi, coffins and funeral stelae, papyri and amulets, etc., to ensure the well-being of their dead in the world beyond the grave. ‘They have been edited from papyri and other documents which were found chiefly at Thebes ; and, taken together, they are generally known as the Theban Re- cension of the Book of the Dead, that is to say, the Recension of the great national funeral work, which was copied by the scribes for themselves and for Egyptian men and women of high rank and position from about 1600 to goo B. C. Many of the ideas and beliefs embodied in these texts are coaeval with Egyptian civilization, and the actual forms of some of the most interesting of these are identical with those which we now know to have existed in the Vth and VIth dynasties, about €3. C. 3500.

T h e greater number of the texts here given belong to the group to which the Egyptians gave the name “Chapters of Coming Forth by Day” ; the remainder are introductory hymns, supple- mentary extracts from ancient cognate works , rubrics, etc., which were believed to increase the well-being and happiness of the dead, and to give them greater strength to resist the attacks of foes and to withstand the powers of darkness and of the grave.

VI PR EFA CE.

T h e papyri selected as authorities are the best now known, and they have been chosen with the view of illustrating the deve- lopment of the Theban Recension and the changes which took place in it during the various periods of its history. Since no papyrus contains all the Chapters of this Recension, and n o two papyri agree either in respect of contents or arrangement of the Chapters, and the critical value of every text in a papyrus is not always the same, it follows that a complete edition of all the known Chapters of the Theban Recension would be im- possible unless recourse were had to several papyri. I have, therefore, made use of several; and among them worthy of special mention is the Papyrus of Nu (Brit. Mus. No. 10,477) from which I have printed 102 Chapters. Here we have about twenty Chapters of the Theban Recension which had not hitherto been found, and several which have, up to the present, been known to exist in single manuscripts only. Wherever it has seemed advisable, I have given the text of a Chapter from more than one papyrus ; and, where lines have been omitted accident- ally by the scribe, I have generally supplied them from papyri of about the same period, telling the reader at the same time the sources of them.

Like M. Naville, I have adopted the system of numbering the Chapters employed by Lepsius in his edition of the SaYte, or last Recension of the Book of the Dead, from the Turin Papy- rus, which was published so far back as 1842. But although I have done so for the sake of uniformity of reference, I con- sider it to be unfortunate that it has been generally adopted in Egyptological works ; for three of the so-called Chapters (Nos. 16, 143 and 150) are in reality Vignettes, and nine others (Nos. 48, 49, 73, 107, 111, 120, 121, 129 and 139) are duplicates of Chapters found in other parts of the papyrus. T h e number of Chapters in Lepsius’ work is, therefore, 153 and not 165.

The Chapters, not including different versions, given in the

PI? EFA CE. VI1

present volume are 177 in number, of which 163 belong to the Theban Recension. T h e remaining 14 (Nos. 19, 32, 60, 128, 135, 140, 145, 157, 158, 159, 162, 163, 164 and 165) have only, as yet, been found in the Sai’te Recension, but as they form good specimens of the religious compositions of the later period and illustrate some curious beliefs, I have thought it right to add them to the older texts. Of Chapter 184 no complete text is known. Of the 163 Chapters of the Theban Recension 148 are edited, with four hymns, from papyri in the British Museum, and 13 Chapters and three hymns are derived from papyri which are preserved in the Museums of Paris, Berlin, Leyden, Cairo, and other places, and which have been published by Leemans, Mariette, Naville and Lefibure.

T h e present edition of the Theban Recension of the Book of the Dead is the most complete which has hitherto been published, and it contains all the original texts of which translations are printed in the volume on the Book of the Dead which Messrs Kegan Paul & Co. are issuing simultaneously with this work.

T h e source of each Chapter is clearly stated above it, but the text has been printed in horizontal instead of perpendicular lines, and has been broken up into words for the convenience of the student.

T h e hymns introductory to the Judgment Scene I have put together, for I believe them to be out of place when arranged as versions of the XVth Chapter ; and probably Chapters 182,

183 and 185 also belong to the group. Jn a small volume accompanying this work will be found a

Vocabulary to the Theban Recension containing over 35,000 re- ferences ; it has been bound up separately in deference to the wishes of many.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PAPYRI.

T h e Chapters of the Book of the Dead, hymns, etc., printed in this volume are edited from the following papyri :-

I. THE PAPYRUS OF NERSENI. This papyrus was obtained by Burton at Memphis and was acquired by the Trustees of the British Museum at the sale of his collection in 1836. It measures 77 ft. 7 in., by I ft. 1 ~ 1 ~ in. ; it is mounted, under glass, in thirty-three sheets, and bears the number 9,900. It is probably the oldest known papyrus inscribed with the Theban Recension of the Book of the Dead, and we cannot be far wrong in ascribing it to the first half of the period of the rule of the kings of the XVITIth dynasty over Egypt, i. e., about B. C. 1600. T h e vignettes and text are in black ink throughout, and only the titles of the Chapters are given in red ; the whole papyrus is most carefully written and is, it would seem, the work of Nebseni himself. As an authority for the text of the Theban Recension it takes very high rank, and the Chapters which M. Naville selected from it for his edition of the Book of the Dead form one third of the entire number which he has printed. T h e deceased Nebseni was by profession a scribe, and he held various offices connected with the architect and surveyor’s de- partment attached to the Temple of Ptab at Memphis, and he was in the immediate service of “the lord of the two lands”, his king. His father and mother were called Thena and Mut- restha respectively ; his wife’s name was Seneb or Senseneb. His two sons were called imsu-mes and Ptah-nies, and his

X T H E ROOK OF THE DEAD

daughter Thent-Men-nefer. T h e Papyrus of Nebseni contains 77 Chapters, not reckoning duplicates and triplicates, which are as follows :-I (sheet I), 5 (sheet 11), 6 (sheet IO), 13 (sheet 12), 17 (sheets 12, 13, 14), 18 (sheet IS), 2 0 (sheet IS), 22 (sheet 5), 23 (sheet 5), 26 (sheets 4, 51, 3oB (sheet 4), 3 8 ~ (sheet 12), 41 (sheet 25), 44 (sheet 12), 46 (sheet 5), 47 (sheet S), 48 (sheet S), 50 (sheets 11, 12), 56 (sheets, 5, 11), 62 (sheet 4), 64 (sheets 23, 24), 65 (sheet 22), 71 (sheet 16), 72 (sheet 3), 76 (sheet S), 77 (sheet 2),

81 (sheet 3), 83 (sheet 2), 84 (sheet 2), 85 (sheet 2), 86 (sheet z), 87 (sheet 11), 88 (sheet 11), 89 (sheet 11), 92 (sheet 6), 96 and 97 (sheet 11), gg (sheet 3), IOO (sheets 5, IO, 20), I03 (sheet 8), 104 (sheet S) , 105 (sheet 4), 106 (sheets 16, 19, 24), 108 (sheet 7), 109 (sheet S), IIO (sheet 17), 112 (sheet 7) , 113 (sheet 7), 114 (sheet 7), 117 and 118 (sheet 11), 119 (sheet 6), 125 (sheets 29, 30, 31), 133 (sheet 22), 134 (sheet 6), 136.4 (sheet 26), 136 B (sheet 26), 137 A (sheet 24), 137 B (sheet 6), 144 and 146 (sheets 2, 3, 4), 148 (sheet 4), 149 (sheets 27, 28), 150 (sheet 29), 151 (sheet 21), I53A (sheet 12), 155 (sheet IO),

156 (sheet IO), 160 (sheet IO), 166 (sheet 21), 167 (sheet 22),

172 (sheet 32), 173 (sheet g), 177 (sheet IS), 178 (sheet ~ g ) , 179 (sheet 26), 180 (sheets 20, 21).

A photograph of the coniplete papyrus was published by the Trustees of the British Museum (Photographs o f the Papyrus of Nebseni in the British Museum, London, 1876) with an introduction by the late Dr. Birch ; fifty-two Chapters from it were published by M. Naville in Das Aegyptische Todtenbuch, Berlin 1886, and he gave a detailed description of it in his Einleitung (pp. 48-54) to that work ; a French translation of the papyrus was published by Massy ( L e papyrus Nebseni, exemplaire hie'roglyphique du livre des morts conserve' au Bri- tish Museum, traduit pal- A. M., Gand, 1885, 8vo ; and extracts from it, with translations, have been published by Birch, Na- ville, Pierret and others. The numbers of the Chapters published in the present work are:-5, 6, 13, 17 (part), 18 (part), 20, 38 A, 41, ~ O A , 62, 64, 72, 92, 104, 110, 114, 125 (part), 1 3 6 ~ , 137B, 151, 166, 167, 172, 173, 177, and 178.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PAPYRI. XI

11. THE PAPYRUS OF NU. This papyrus was found at KGrna, Thebes, and was acquired by the Trustees of the British Museum in 1890. It measures 65 ft. 31/2 in., by I ft. I ' / ~ in. ; it is mounted under glass in thirty sheets, and bears the number 10,477. It is, I believe, the oldest of the painted papyri inscribed with the Theban Recension of the Book of the Dead, and it may, with little doubt, be considered a product of the first half of the period of the rule of the kings of the XVIIIth dynasty ; it is very little later than that of Nebseni. T h e papyrus begins with a coloured scene in which the deceased is standing in adoration before Osiris who is seated in a shrine, and only a few of the Chapters, i. e., those of the Transform- ations, Arits, Pylons, Aats, and one or two others, have vignettes. T h e text is in black throughout, and only the titles of the Chapters and the Rubrics are given in red ; the wlfole papyrus is most carefully written, and it is probably the work of Nu himself. It must rank as one of the chief authorities for the text of the Theban Recension, for it is n o mere copy hastily written for sale by a scribe, but a piece of work which bears upon every line of it the impress of care and knowledge ; it is, moreover, the work of one man. Here and there the scribe has omitted lines, and two copies of one short Chapter (No. 132) occur. This papyrus follows that of Nebseni in omitting the introductory hymns to Ra and Osiris and the great Judgment Scene, which are characteristic of the illustrated papyri of the last half of the XVIIIth dynasty and subsequent periods, and like most of the old papyri it ends with Chapters 149 and 150. It contains a considerable number of Chapters which have not hitherto been found in papyri of the Theban Recension, and also a large number of others which have only hitherto been known from a single document. It contains both versions of the 64th Chapter, and the various groups of Chapters relating to special subjects are singularly complete. T h e deceased Nu is frequently described as w 5 neb cimax, as in the case of Nebseni, and in two places (sheet 20, 1. 62 ; sheet 24, 1. 54) the word maiiXel-u is written 9 @ -b& and

XI1 THE BOOK OF THE DEAD.

9 @ ; compare Chap. Z ~ A published from a 20 papyrus at Parma by Naville, Todtenbuclz, Bd. I. B1. 40, 11. I and 7. T h e deceased Nu held the office of “overseer of the pa- ma which we may either lace”, and he is described as

render as “belonging to the office of chancellor” or “the tongue of the chancery” ; I have rendered it freely by the words “chancellor-in-chief”. T h e name of his father was Amen-hetep, and he had held the same offices as his son Nu ; his mother’s name was Senseneb.’ The name Amen-hetep is common enough in the XVIIIth dynasty, but the name Senseneb is rare, and is characteristic of the XVIIIth dynasty, and the period preceding it ; see the two instances of the name quoted by Lieblein (Dict. .de Noms Hie‘ro- glyyhiques, Livr. III., Nos. 1558, p. 621, and 1963, p. 763), and to these may be added that of the wife of Nebseni (see Naville, Einleitung, p. 51). T h e Papyrus of Nu contains 131 Chapters2

which are as follows :-I (sheet 5), 2 (sheet 13), 3 (sheet 13), 4 (sheet IS), 5 (sheet ZI), 6 (sheet ZI), 7 (sheet zz), 8 (sheet IZ) ,

‘Thebes, and was acquired by the Trustees of the British Museum in 1888. It measures 78 ft., by I ft. 3 in. ; it is mounted under glass in thirty-seven sheets and bears the number 10,470. It is the finest of all the illustrated papyri inscribed with the Theban Recension of the Book of the Dead, and it was probably written between the years B. C. 1500 and B. C. 1400. (For a detailed account of the papyrus see niy PAPYRUS OF ANI, London, 1895, p. C x r J f f . ) T h e Papyrus of Ani is a most important authority for the text of the Theban Recension, and it contains Chapters, Introductions to Chapters, etc., which are not found in any other papyrus ; from an artistic point of view its value is greater than that of any other papyrus. The texts from it printed in the present work are :- Hymn to RZ, Hymn to Osiris, and Chapters I , 2, 8, 9, IO, 15, 17 (part), 18 (with In-

DESCRIPTION OF THE PAPYRI. xv

9,901. It is beautifully illustrated, and is the shortest perfect document of its class known. T h e deceased Hu-nefer was the overseer of the palace, and inspector of cattle, and scribe to His Majesty Seti I, King of Egypt about B. C. I370 ; it is thus possible to date the document with considerable accuracy. The texts from this papyrus printed in the present volume are the Introductory Hymns to Ra and Osiris ; the latter is commonly called Chapter 183.

V. THE PAPYRUS OF MUT-HETEP. This papyrus was probably found at Thebes, and was purchased by the Trustees of the British Museum from Mr. Murray in 1861. It measures g ft. g1/2 in., by I ft. I’/~ in. ; it is mounted under glass in five sheets, and bears the number 10,010. T h e deceased Mut- hetep was a singer in the ‘Temple of i\men-R% at Thebes, and her papyrus is remarkable among the illustrated papyri. It contains Chapters 151, 168 A, 174,~ a Hymn to the setting sun, and a hymn to Osiris, which is commonly called Chapter 182 ; all these are printed in the present volume. It is a remarkable fact that Chapter 174 has its equivalent in the text inscribed within the Pyramid of Unas, lines 379 to 399, and its appearance along with Chapters of the Theban Recension goes to prove that portions of the earliest religious texts were made into “Chapters” and then incorporated with others of a much later period.3 The vignettes of the papyrus are as remarkable as the texts which it contains ; they are figured by Naville, Todten- buch, Bd. I, B11. 173, 187, 197 and 208. This papyrus may be assigned to the XXth dynasty. about B. C. 1150.

VI. THE PAPYRUS OF N.EKHT. This papyrus was found at Thebes, and was acquired by the Trustees of the British Museum in 1888. It measures 47 ft. I ’ / ~ in., by I ft. 2 in. wide ; it is mounted under glass in twenty-two sheets, and bears the number

10,471. The deceased Nekht was a “real royal scribe”, TffiI-? I. See Naville, Einleitung, p. 59. 2. See Naville, Einleitung, p. 59. 3. See Recueil de Travaux, tom. IV, p. 4 3 ; this Chapter has been dis-

cussed at length by Erman, Aeg. Zeitschrift, Bd. XXXII, p. 3 .

and he vias “overseer of the bowmen of the lord of the two lands”, Tgfj - - - - 7 his wife’s name was Thuau

a& 9 8. The papyrus contains a large number of well- written Chapters, and nicely painted vignettes, but a detailed account of it is unnecessary here. T h e only text from itlprint- ed in this volume is the Hymn to Ra which is found on sheet 21.

This papyrus may be assigned to the XXth dynasty. VII. The Papyrus of a person whose name is not given.

This papyrus was found at Thebes, and was acquired by the Trustees of the British Museum in 1890. It measures 15 ft. 51/2 in., by I I ~ / + in. ; it is mounted under glass in seven sheets, and it bears the number 10,478. T h e central portion of the papyrus is filled with the picture of a hall having a door at each end. T h e space between the ceiling and floor is divided into three parts ; in the first and third of these is a series of short addresses to personages in four sections of the underworld, and in the second division is a series of vignettes illustrating them. These texts are printed in the present volume as Chapter 168. T h e papyrus opens with a vignette in which the deceased is seen standing in adoration at a table of offerings in the presence of Osiris ; on a standard, before the god, are the four children of Horus, and behind him is Heru-netch-tef. T h e text which accompanies this vignette reads :-

DESCRIPTION OF THE PAPYRI. XVII

The papyrus closes with a vignette in which the deceased, accompanied by his wife, is seen standing in adoration at a table of offerings in the presence of the god Osiris, who is seated in a shrine. The god wears the utef crown, and in his right hand is the crook, and in the left the crook and whip, emblems of sovereignty and dominion. Behind Osiris stands Isis, who has upon her head the disk and horns. The text
