The Papyrus of Ani, Chapter 2

Text:

A spell to come forth by day and live after dying. Words spoken by the Osiris Ani:

O One, bright as the moon-god Iah; O One, shining as Iah;

This Osiris Ani comes forth among these your multitudes outside, bringing himself back as a shining one. He has opened the netherworld.

Lo, the Osiris Osiris [sic] Ani comes forth by day, and does as he desires on earth among the living.
