ancient Egyptian hymns and religious texts printed in
the following pages form a representative collection of the
various compositions which the Egyptians inscribed upon the
walls of tombs and sarcophagi, coffins and funeral stelae, papyri
and amulets, etc., t o ensure the well-being of their dead in the
world beyond the grave. ‘They have been edited from papyri
and other documents which were found chiefly at Thebes and,
taken together, they are generally known as the Theban Re-
cension
of
the
Book of the Dead, that is to say, the Recension
of the great national funeral work, which was copied by the
scribes for themselves and for Egyptian men and
of
high rank and position from about 1600 to goo
B. C.
Many
of the ideas and beliefs embodied in these texts are coaeval with
Egyptian civilization, and the actual forms
of some of the most
interesting of these are identical with those which we now know
to have existed i n the Vth and
dynasties, about
C.
T h e greater number of the texts here given belong t o the group
to which the Egyptians gave the name “Chapters of Coming
Forth by Day”
the remainder are introductory hymns, supple-
mentary extracts from ancient cognate works
,
rubrics, etc.,
which were believed t o increase the well-being and happiness
of the dead, and t o give them greater strength to resist the
attacks of foes and t o withstand the powers of darkness and
of
the grave.
EFA CE.
T h e papyri selected as authorities are the best now known,
and they have been chosen with the view of illustrating the deve-
lopment of the T h e b a n Recension and the changes which took
place in it during the various periods of its history. Since n o
papyrus contains all the Chapters of this Recension, and n o t w o
papyri agree either in respect
of contents or arrangement of the
Chapters, and the critical value
of every text in a papyrus is
not always the same, it follows that a complete edition
of
all
the known Chapters of the Theban Recension would be im-
possible unless recourse were had to several papyri.
I
have, there-
fore, made use of several; and among them worthy
of special
mention is t h e Papyrus of
Nu
(Brit. Mus.
No.
from
which
I
have printed
Chapters. Here w e have about twenty
Chapters
of the Theban Recension which had not hitherto
been found, and several which have, u p t o the present, been
known t o exist i n single manuscripts only. Wherever it has
seemed advisable,
I
have given the text of a Chapter from more
than one papyrus
;
and, where lines have been omitted accident-
ally by the scribe,
I
have generally supplied them from papyri
of
about the same period, telling the reader at the same time
the sources
of them.
Like M. Naville,
I
have adopted the system
of numbering the
Chapters employed by Lepsius i n his edition
of
the
o r
last Recension
of the Book of the Dead, from the Turin Papy-
rus, which was published
so far back as
