In respect of the Hill of Bachau([1]) upon which heaven resteth, it presenteth itself([2]) three hundred cubits in length([3]) and two hundred cubits in breadth.
Sebak, the Lord of Bachau, is at the east of the Hill, and his temple is upon it.
There is a serpent on the brow of that hill, five hundred cubits in length, three cubits of his forepart are pierced with swords.
I know the name of this serpent on his hill: “He who dwelleth in his own flame” is his name.([4])
Now, at the close of day([5]) he turneth down his eyes to Rā; for there cometh a standing still in the Bark and a deep slumber within the ship. And now he swalloweth three cubits of the Great Water.
Then Sutu is made to flee with a chain upon him of steel([6]) and he is forced to vomit all that he hath swallowed. Then Sutu is put into his prison.
And then he saith with Words of Power:—
Away with thee! Steel, which art made fast upon my hand. I remain in thy prison, the Bark sails on and thou seest the path; but thine eyes close, [thine eye is delivered to me], thy head is veiled,([7]) and I go on and stay thy steps.
I am the Manful one, who veileth thy head and who cooleth the hollow of thy hand: thy strength is my strength.
I am the Master of the Words of Power.
