A LEGEND OF PTAH NEFER-HETEP AND THE PRINCESS OF BEKHTEN (Continuation) “Now, when the messenger came to His Majesty in the first month of the season of Shemu (harvest season), in the twenty-sixth year [of His reign], on the day which coincided with that of the Festival of Amen, His Majesty was in the palace (or, temple?) of Thebes. And His Majesty spoke a second time in the presence of Khensu in Thebes, [called] ‘Nefer-Hetep,’ saying, ‘O my fair Lord, I present myself before thee a second time on behalf of the daughter of the Prince of Bekhten.’ Then Khensu, in Thebes, [called] ‘Nefer-Hetep,’ was carried to Khensu, [called] ‘Pa-ari-sekher,’ the great god who drives away the spirits which attack.
