Two Magical Fragments

The magical spell associated with a niche in the east wall of a tomb holding a statue of Anubis reclining upon his shrine or on a hill is:

‘Thou watchful one, watchful also is he-who-is-upon-his-mountain. Thy moment is repelled. I have repelled thy moment of rage. I am thy protector.’

The spell placed on the statue of Anubis guarding the storeroom (The Treasury of the Innermost) in the tomb of Tutankhamen reads:

‘It is I who hinder the sand from choking the secret chamber, and who repel he who would repel him with the desert-flame. I have set aflame the desert, I have caused the path to be mistaken. I am for the protection of the Osiris.’
