THE AMULET OF THE SOUL

This amulet was made of gold inlaid with precious stones in the form of a human-headed
hawk, and, when the words of the LXXXIXth Chapter of the Book of the Dead had been
recited over it, it was directed by the rubric to the Chapter to be placed upon the breast of
the deceased. The object of the amulet is apparent from the text in which the deceased is
made to say, "Hail, thou god Anniu! Hail, thou god Pehrer, who dwellest in thy hall!
Grant thou that my soul may come unto me from wheresoever it may be. If it would tarry,
then let my soul be brought unto me from wheresoever it may be. . . . Let me have
possession of my soul and of my spirit, and let me be true of voice with them
wheresoever they may be. . . . Hail, ye gods, who tow along the boat of the lord of
millions of years, who bring it above the underworld, and who make it to travel over Nut,
who make souls to enter into their spiritual bodies, . . . grant that the soul of the Osiris

"may come forth before the gods, and that it may be true of voice with you in the east of
the sky, and follow unto the place where it was yesterday, and enjoy twofold peace in
Amentet. May it look upon its natural body, may it rest upon its spiritual body, and may
its body neither perish nor suffer corruption for ever!" Thus the amulet of the soul was
intended to enable the soul both to unite with the mummified body, and to be with its
spirit (khu) and spiritual body at will.

Comment: This is a different edition of the book of the dead than the one in my previous torrent. Wallis Budge is the Indiana Jones guy you've seen in my torrent "The Egyptian Book of the Dead.XviD+PDF".
