Σελίδα xv - ... and to justice. View not with indifference the extensive connections you have formed, but let universal benevolence regulate your conduct Exert \ "your abilities in the service of your king and your country, and deem the knowledge you have this day attained, the happiest acquisition of your life.

Σελίδα 125 - I adore thee in the song — I am the Lord of Thebes, and I The inspired forth-speaker of Mentu; For me unveils the veiled sky, The self-slain Ankh-af-na-khonsu Whose words are truth. I invoke, I greet Thy presence, O Ra-Hoor-Khuit! Unity uttermost showed! I adore the might of Thy breath, Supreme and terrible God, Who makest the gods and death To tremble before Thee: — I, I adore thee! Appear on the throne of Ra! Open the ways of the Khu! Lighten the ways of the Ka! The ways of the Khabs run through...

Σελίδα xiii - ... human nature; and may you feel the elevation of soul which scorns a dishonourable action, and ever invites to the practice of piety and virtue ! These are the wishes of a father and a brother conjoined. Of you the greatest hopes are raised ; let not our expectations be deceived.
