If this doesn't scare these darned foreigners out of Egypt, nothing will. Thank the gods Shesmu is the head of our Organization and the REAL Anubis. Romans go home!






It is Shesmu who carves them up for Unis,

Cooks meals of them for him in his dinner-pots.2

Unis eats their magic, swallows their spirits:

Their big ones are for his breakfast,

Their middle ones are for his dinner,

Their little ones are for his evening snack.

The oldest males and females are for his fuel:

The Great Ones in the northern sky light him fire

For the kettles' contents with the old ones' thighs,

For the Sky-dwellers serve Unis

And the pots are scraped for him with their women's legs.



He has encompassed the two skies,

He has circled the Two Shores,

Unis is the great power that overpowers the powers,

Unis is the divine hawk, the great hawk of hawks:

Whom he finds on his way he devours whole!*
