What is a man without a Shadow, who is not anchored in the world?

What is a man without a Heart, who can neither feel nor think?

What is a man without a Ka, who has no essence?

What is a man without a Ba, who is not himself, but like unformed clay?"

Therefore praise Osiris, the King of Eternity, the Lord of Everlastingness, the eldest son of the womb of Nut, he who traverses millions of years in his existence."
