PLATE XVI.
The Stele recording the casting out of a devil from the Princess of Bekhten. The hymn concludes with a reference to the accession of Horus, son of Isis, the flesh and bone of Osiris, to the throne of his grandfather Keb, and to the welcome which he received from the Tchatcha, or Administrators of heaven, and the Company of the Gods, and the Lords of Truth, who assembled in the Great House of Heliopolis to acknowledge his sovereignty. His succession also received the approval of Neb-er- tcher, who, as we saw from the first legend in this book, was the Creator of the Universe. VI.
