Pyramid Texts — Budge 1911 Pepi I / Merenre / Pepi II selections — sourcepage 348
334 Osiris and the Egyptian Resurrection of Set. . . . The ... of this Pepi is that of Baabu.^ The breast of this Pepi is that of Bast. The belly of this Pepi is that of Nut. . . . The ... of this Pepi is that of the Two Companies of the Gods. The haunches of this Pepi are those of Heqet. The buttocks of this Pepi are those of the Semktet and Mantchet Boats. The phallus of this Pepi is that of Hep. The thighs of this Pepi are those of Net and Serqet. The legs of this Pepi are those of the Twin Souls in Sekhet-Tcher. The soles of the feet of this Pepi are those of the Two Maati goddesses. The toe-nails of this Pepi are those of the Souls of Anu. Now this Pepi is a god, the son of a god.^ Pepi is the son of Ra, who loveth him.^ Ra sendeth forth Pepi,^ Ra hath conceived Pepi.^ Ra hath brought forth Pepi.^ This word of power is the intestines of Pepi.^ Pepi is the Great Sekhem among the Great Taskmasters in Anu.2 [He] worketh the Boat of [of Ra].^ [He is] Horus the Babe, the Child. ^ Nut hath not united [with him], she hath not given her arms.*^ Keb hath not travelled on his path (?)'^ No god hath drawn aside the feet of this Pepi.^ He hath no fruit (?), he hath no shade, he hath not washed himself in the laver, he hath not smelled the haunch, he hath not carried the flesh and bone, he hath not ploughed the earth, he hath not carried the offering.- Behold, it is not this Pepi who saith these things to you, O ye gods, but it is Heka who saith them to you. Pepi is the warden of the stand which is under Heka.^ Ho, let every god draw his feet to Pepi.^ Ho, let every god prepare his throne in his Boat.^ Let him plough the earth, let him carry the offering, let him make ready the nem^e^ vessel, let him smell the haunch, let him carry the offering.^ Ho, let every god take the hand of this Pepi in heaven, let him make him journey to the House of Horus in the firmament,^ let his Ka be triumphant before Keb. 2 Here comes the refrain " He cometh forth," etc
