Nectanebo's Tomb Inscription, no 1

Found written in hieroglyphics on a coffin dug up in Cairo. Astrological divinations by the court mage of the Fatimid Caliph indicated that something interesting was in this sport, so he told the Caliph to build a mosque there. Diggings for the foundation revealed a sarcophogus, on which this was written in hieroglyphics. Translated by the Temporary Party:

At dawn, Ra and the serpent Apep fought; and Apep was defeated; and the gods built the world of men for the day. On every journey of the sacred barge, Apep rises from the abyss and seeks the death of Ra, but ever he has escaped. Once the children of Apep raided the two kingdoms, delivering our greatest humilitation, but they too left. Yet Apep's power waxes as Ra's wanes, and someday she will swallow the sun.

I, Nectanebo, last pharaoh of the two kingdomes, shall have no tomb worthy of my station, and never will my Ba ascend to join my ancestors. The old woman Uert Hekev stole the book of Thoth as well as the ebony casket, and now there is nothing to stop the onslaught of the Persians.
