I (Ramses III) made for thee (Ptah) a mysterious shrine of Elephantine granite, established with work forever, of a single block, having double doors of bronze, of a mixture of six (parts), engraved with thy august name, forever. Ptah, Sekhmet, and Nefertem rest in it, while statues of the king are by their side, to present offerings before them. — 4.320
Its rushes are Ptah, Sakhmet is its foliage, Iadet its buds, Nefertem its lotus blossoms. — 500
