6 Pure flames are offered to thee;

7 Offerings are made to every god,

8 As they are made unto Nile.

9 Incense ascends unto heaven,

10 Oxen, bulls, fowls are burnt!

11 Nile makes for himself chasms in the Thebaid;[505]

12 Unknown is his name in heaven,

13 He doth not manifest his forms!

14 Vain are all representations![506]
