Lord of the Storm!
Soldier in the prow of Ra’s boat!
Lift up Your spear!
Slay the uncreated serpent!
Fierce of thunder,
lightning’s flash and fearsome iron,
reach from the sky,
split its head and cast it down!

Set! Set! Set! Set!
Limitless, the desert’s ruler!
Potent of force,
perfect strength and perfect power!
Red as the flame,
You Whose voice subdues the sea!
Come with Heru —
smite isfet, set us free!

O strange and sacred Beast of Netjer —
Set! Set! Set! Set!


Notes: Written in June 2009.
