Bored Ghost

“I have come here from my city, I have descended from my nome; I have built a house, set up (its) doors, I have dug a pool, planted sycamores. The king praised me, My father made a will for me. I was one worthy --- One beloved of his father, Praised by his mother, Whom all his brothers loved. I gave bread to the hungry, Clothing to the naked, I brought the boatless to land. O you who live upon earth, Who shall pass by this tomb Going north or going south, Who shall say: "a thousand loaves and beer jugs For the owner of this tomb," I shall watch over them in the necropolis.  I am an excellent equipped spirit (akh), A lector-priest who knows his speech. As for any man who enters this tomb unclean, I shall seize him by the neck like a bird, He will be judged for it by the great god! I was one who spoke fairly, who repeated what was liked, I never spoke evilly against any man to his superior, Never did I judge between two [contenders] In a manner which deprived a son of his father's legacy.
