1.
 In the Great Age of the Hound and Young Bull,
2.
 At one thousand, seven hundred and eighty cycles of AUN
3.
 Past the dawn of the Great Age (2700 BCE),
4.
 Great prosperity had been made
5.
 Civilizations of all name
6.
 Honoring man and the gods
7.
 The Šumeru excelled in the building of cities
8.
 In the education of men
9.
 The good government of life
10.
 The people of the Indus (Harappa)
11.
 Excelled in the crafts
12.
 Of intricate design
13.
 The people of Ebla
14.
 In the crafting of wood and smith of metal
15.
 The Aegyptus in the carving of stone.
16.
 The songs (poems) of Kothar
17.
 Were sung in all the great halls
18.
 And chambers of man
19.
 The Bra(h)mān revered.
 
106.
    
1.
 But upon the season of the rain gods
2.
 Dagan (god of rain/fertility) did not come
3.
 The peoples of the river valleys did grow thirsty
4.
 The crops began to wither
5.
 The kings of man did consult
6.
 The Most high Bra(h)mān of the sacred isle.
 
107.
    
1.
 The King of the Aegyptus
2.
 Named Pharaoh Khasekhemwy
3.
 Did send his young son Djoser
4.
 To ERI(U), To plead with the head of the Holly
5.
 DON, the most senior of the Cuileann
6.
 Did first welcome the young prince
7.
 For the priests Aegyptus had spoken
8.
 Of the bright young prince
9.
 But Djoser did protest
10.
 Not to learn had he come
11.
 But to save his people
12.
 The high priests of the council
13.
 Did consult for five days
14.
 And then returned
15.
 Proclaiming that they shall prepare
16.
 The greatest of all songs
17.
 To help bring order
18.
 That such a poem
19.
 Would be prepared
20.
 Within ten cycles of YAH (the Gleaming One).
 
108.
    
1.
 Djoser did tear his clothes
2.
 For such delay
3.
 And more prose
4.
 Would not feed the bellies
5.
 Of his hungry land
6.
 He did depart the sacred isle
7.
 Vowing never to regard
8.
 Such men as gods again
 
109.
    
1.
 Yet even a curse
2.
 Of good conscience
3.
 Does not pass unheard
4.
 by the gods
5.
 And upon his return journey
6.
 LIR did pound his boat
7.
 With fierce aggression
8.
 Till it broke in two
9.
 Upon the rocks Of the Latins coast
10.
 In the tempest
11.
 But two did live
12.
 The young prince Was saved by Cú
13.
 The tillerman Of the sacred boat
 
110.
    
1.
 The old king
2.
 Of the Aegyptus
3.
 Upon hearing the news
4.
 From the other boats
5.
 Did give up the ghost
6.
 Believing his son doomed
7.
 Without an heir
8.
 It was Nimaethap
9.
 The wife of the King
10.
 And mother of the prince
11.
 Who ruled in his stead
12.
 Not first without fighting a brief rebellion
13.
 The second wife and sons scratched out
14.
 from the book of life.
 
111.
    
1.
 Upon their shipwreck
2.
 Cú implored the young prince
3.
 To remove his princely clothes
4.
 And dress in rags
5.
 In those days The Latins
6.
 Knew no civilized ways
7.
 And did treat all Strangers
8.
 As Meat for their dogs
9.
 But held special feast
10.
 Upon the bones of kings
11.
 And holy men
 
112.
    
1.
 The Latins did bind and take them
2.
 to their Camp
3.
 and prepared to cleave them
4.
 as was their custom
5.
 Whereupon Cú did speak in their tongue
6.
 He did call them not to end them
7.
 But that they might serve as slaves
8.
 The Latins amazed this man could speak
9.
 Called if he might be a holy priest
10.
 For sweet the flesh of doomed poets
11.
 Cú did reply that he was no priest
12.
 But a mere slave of priests
13.
 Who happened to gain their favour
14.
 By serving them
15.
 Upon the sincerity of Cú
16.
 The Latins did bind them
17.
 And made them slaves
 
113.
    
1.
 Away from the gaze
2.
 Of the uncivilized Latins
3.
 The young prince did ask
4.
 Knowing the ancient promise
5.
 Of the Holly since the beginning of time
6.
 To never utter an untruth
7.
 How then Cú knew such wisdom
8.
 If he indeed was not a priest?
9.
 Cú replied that he once was a novice
10.
 Of the Holly and destined to shine
11.
 But did reject the singing of songs
12.
 Preferring to write using sign
13.
 To commit to memory the knowledge
14.
 The Cuilleain had rejected his ways
15.
 And condemned him to be a ferryman
16.
 Upon the seas
 
114.
    
1.
 For five years the Latins kept them bound
2.
 For five years Cú and the prince did speak
3.
 And Cú did reveal the great wisdom
4.
 Of the most holy and ancient
5.
 The greatest of law of kings
6.
 The finest of science and custom
7.
 Then upon a night of great storm
8.
 The Latins fearful did run from their camp
9.
 Seizing the moment,
10.
 Cú did find a strong young tree and rock
11.
 And released them from their bonds
12.
 At the coast
13.
 Cú and Djoser did lash a raft
14.
 And depart the shores of the Latins
15.
 first to Krētē
16.
 and then by boat and crew to his land Aegyptus
 
115.
    
1.
 Upon Memphis, Queen Nimaethap
2.
 Wept for joy
3.
 For her son lost, had returned.
4.
 Within one cycle of YAH
5.
 Djoser was crowned Pharaoh
6.
 His first act was to call Cú to his throne
7.
 Whereupon Djoser did proclaim
8.
 I name thee IM-HATAP (Imotep)
9.
 Meaning the one who comes in peace
10.
 I shall make Chancellor of all Lower Egypt,
11.
 First after the King
12.
 Administrator of the Great Palace
13.
 Hereditary nobleman
14.
 High priest
15.
 Builder, Chief Carpenter,
16.
 Chief Sculptor and Maker of Vessels in Chief
17.
 To save our kingdom
18.
 You shall first make a language
19.
 That all men may read
20.
 And understand
21.
 That they may be literate
22.
 In the way
23.
 and knowledge of the gods
 
116.
    
1.
 IM-HATAP (Imotep) rose and asked the Pharaoh
2.
 How can such things be done
3.
 When the most sacred and ancient of high priests forbid it
4.
 For all knowledge then was prose
5.
 sung from ancient times
6.
 The Pharaoh did reply
7.
 That wisdom without purpose is nought
8.
 Men without culture are animals
9.
 No good priest may ransom his King or his people
 
117.
    
1.
 And so, within less than one cycle of AUN
2.
 IM-HATAP (Imotep) did give his king and people
3.
 a language for all to read and understand
4.
 He did use the pressed reeds of the river
5.
 And the inks to make sign
6.
 And handsome in art
7.
 That by carved stone and paint
8.
 They might be the same
9.
 And within two cycles of the AUN
10.
 The kingdom of the Aegyptus
11.
 Did have knowledge for fields,
12.
 For law and fair rights
13.
 For learning and for taxes
14.
 For trade and reason.
 
118.
    
1.
 The high priests of the sacred isle
2.
 Did hear word of what IM-HATAP had done
3.
 They summonsed him to return
4.
 On his priestly oaths
5.
 But Pharaoh refused to release him.
6.
 Instead, Pharaoh Djoser sent word
7.
 To each and every great King
8.
 To meet at the sacred city of Memphis
9.
 Upon the question of the writing of signs (written language)
10.
 Such was the question of many Kings
11.
 That they did agree
12.
 An event to rival the gods of the heavens
 
119.
    
1.
 For the first time
2.
 So grave the threat
3.
 To their sacred wisdom
4.
 The High Priests of the Cuilleain
5.
 The High Council of priests
6.
 Did leave ERI(U)
7.
 And to the court of Pharaoh
8.
 There Pharaoh erected thrones equal in stature
9.
 For the great council of the most ancient priests
10.
 And a throne equal to each King
11.
 Never before had such a scene come
12.
 The great and noble King Ebrium (Abrum) of Ebla
13.
 The great and noble King Emmaberagesi of Kish
14.
 And even the great and noble King GILGAMESH of Uruk
15.
 Did all attend.
16.
 The King of Mari of the Amurru (Amorites)
17.
 Was not invited
18.
 On account of their wicked
19.
 And dark acts
20.
 Worse than even the most ancient MOT and MAB
 
120.
    
1.
 Upon the arrival of the Holly Ones
2.
 DON, the most senior priest
3.
 did speak first
4.
 As was most ancient custom
5.
 He did remind Pharaoh
6.
 That all knowledge was from the gods
7.
 And it was the priests who represented them
8.
 That by the priests and the Holly ones alone
9.
 Did such knowledge reside
10.
 Only to noble men worthy should it be spoken In prose
11.
 And only spoken and sung, never written
12.
 For written signs
13.
 Such as Pharaoh had designed
14.
 Was blasphemy to the gods
 
121.
    
1.
 Pharaoh remained as cold a stone
2.
 While the words of DON
3.
 Did boil his blood
4.
 He stood up from his throne
5.
 And stepped down to the throng
6.
 Attendants scattered from his path
7.
 Men and noble gasped in horror
8.
 That Pharoah may lower himself
9.
 In view of great kings and ancient priests
10.
 The wise king did let the throng subside
11.
 And spoke with purpose
12.
 Nearly twelve cycles ago of the great Gods
13.
 I did stand before you as a man
14.
 For my people starving
15.
 And throughout your lands
16.
 Fields and plough
17.
 And all manner of science employed
18.
 But in your wisdom you saw fit to offer me but song
19.
 Now that my people can feed themselves,
20.
 Can divine science and learn
21.
 You threaten all men Great culture
22.
 You threaten all men
23.
 That such rights are not ours
 
122.
    
1.
 Upon hearing the Pharaoh’s speech
2.
 Don did rise from his chair and did yell
3.
 Blapshemy!
4.
 You shall have no more priests
5.
 nor divination of the gods
6.
 You shall be cut off
7.
 And food for the wolves
 
123.
    
1.
 Upon this burst
2.
 The Pharaoh did proclaim
3.
 Let it be known
4.
 As my word bonded
5.
 From this day forth
6.
 No priest of the Holly
7.
 Shall step foot in my lands
8.
 No song of the Bra(h)mān shall be sung
9.
 No gods of the ancient names be honored
10.
 For upon your ways
11.
 We shall write our own wisdom
12.
 We shall sing our own songs
13.
 We shall worship our own Gods.
 
124.
    
1.
 The old priest and the High Council did cry in horror
2.
 DON did rend his sacred robes
3.
 Smashing his sacred staff upon the floor
4.
 of the Pharaohs hall
5.
 He did cry out
6.
 I curse thee
7.
 The highest curse
8.
 And all men who follow thee
9.
 For fickle will be your wisdom
10.
 Shallow and without unity
11.
 You shall be damned to war
12.
 You shall be beguiled by darkness
13.
 And this shall be your doom
 
125.
    
1.
 Upon hearing the High Curse uttered
2.
 Against humanity
3.
 By such a powerful and ancient priest
4.
 IM-HATAP did speak weeping
5.
 In cursing man
6.
 You have cursed our kind
7.
 Within a Great Age
8.
 We will be ghosts
9.
 No more of the history of man
10.
 Doomed as the unremembered.
 
126.
    
1.
 Thus the priests departed back to ERI(U)
2.
 And the great kings each did commission their own writing signs
3.
 And each did create their own gods
4.
 And each did create their own songs and wisdom
5.
 And true to the words of IM-HATAP
6.
 Before the end of the next Great Age
7.
 The most sacred and ancient of all priests
8.
 Were long forgotten.
