'What wilt thou do therewith?' [say they]. 'Bury them by the furrow of
M[=a][=a]at as Things for the night' [I reply]. 'What wilt thou find
by the furrow of M[=a][=a]at?' [say they]. 'A sceptre of flint
called Giver of Air' [I reply]. 'What wilt thou do with the fiery
flame and the crystal tablet after thou hast buried them?' [say they].
'I will recite words over them, in the furrow. I will extinguish the
fire, and I will break the tablet, and I will make a pool of water' [I
reply]. Then let the gods say unto me, 'Come and enter in through the
door of this Hall of the M[=a][=a]ti goddesses, for thou knowest us.'"

After these remarkable prayers follows a dialogue between each part of
the Hall of M[=a][=a]ti and the deceased, which reads as follows:--

_Door bolts_. "We will not let thee enter in through us unless thou
tellest our names."

_Deceased_. "'Tongue of the place of Right and Truth' is your
name."

_Right post_. "I will not let thee enter in by me unless thou tellest
my name."

_Deceased_. "'Scale of the lifter up of right and truth' is thy
name."

_Left post_. "I will not let thee enter in by me unless thou tellest
my name."

_Deceased_. "'Scale of wine' is thy name."
