Transformation into a Falcon of Gold Pen and ink; black, gold and silver. 23 x 16cm. 1997 Translation:
Chapter for making the transformation into a falcon of gold. I have risen in the shrine as a falcon of gold having come forth from its egg. I have flown up and alighted as a falcon of four cubits along its back, whose two wings are like green stone of the south. I have come forth from the night barque, my heart has been brought from the eastern mountain. I have alighted in the day barque. Brought to me are those who are from their primeval time, with them bowing down. I appear in glory. I am united as the beautiful falcon of gold upon the bennu. I sit among the gods of the sky.

Translation:
"To be said on the first day of the first month.
Ra rises in his horizon,
They rejoice at the ways of Ra
May the gods who are in heaven,
May he be strong upon earth and in the netherworld.

Words spoken by Osiris, the scribe, Ani, true of voice.
his Ennead is following him
at the coming forth of the god
from the secret place
in the eastern horizon of the sky
at the words of Nut.
when the great one goes around,
being renewed every day.
when they see Osiris Ani in triumph,
give to him praises like Ra.
May he rise up strengthened, like Ra,
every day in the divine boat,
mighty of forms of existence."
