Kheftiu Asar Butchiu Enemies of Osiris who are to be burned Let there be fetters on your arms Let there be shackles on your necks Let there be chains upon you Ye shall be hacked to pieces for what ye have done to Osiris You have put his mysteries behind your backs You hath dragged the statue of the god From the secret place You hath desecrated the hidden things of the great one You are doomed to stand and receive in your faces The fire which the serpent Khetti is about to spit at you Khetti Great serpent who lieth in undulations Before the damned Khetti Open thy mouth distend thy jaws Belch forth thy flames against my fathers enemies Burn up their bodies Consume their souls By the fire which issueth from thy mouth And by the flames which art in thy body The fire which is in the serpent Khetti Shall come forth And blaze against the enemies of Osiris Whosoever knoweth how to use these words of power Against the serpent shall be as one Who doth not enter upon his fiery path
