‘The Demonic Tablet of Apep’

The ‘Old Luxor Hotel’ Today

“Taste thou death, O Apep, get thee back, retreat,
0 enemy of Ra, fall down, be repulsed, get back and retreat!
I have driven thee back, and I have cut thee in pieces.

Ra triumphs over Apep. Taste thou death Apep.
Ra triumphs over Apep. Taste thou death Apep.
Ra triumphs over Apep. Taste thou death Apep.
Ra triumphs over Apep. Taste thou death Apep.
Back, Fiend, an end to thee!
Therefore, have I driven flame at thee,

and therefore, have I made thee to be destroyed,
and therefore, have I adjudged thee to evil.
An end, an end to thee!
Taste thou death!

An end to thee!
Thou shalt never rise again.”
