Great of vegetation,
its fresh plants are numerous,
their number cannot be known;
its plant-offerings are like the field
on a green day;
all its flowers are opening their blossoms,
they flourish in your forecourt, daily.191
Behold, your are chief of the field (ȝḫ.t),
who performs benefactions (ȝḫ.w).
May your face be kind
to the chief of agriculture, whom you love,
(Domitian Augustus)|
17 May you make prosper for him all plants
upon the earth,
and he will make your eyes (ṯḥn.ty) sparkle (sṯḥn)
with fresh plants, forever.

Words spoken:
Hail, Khnum-Re Lord of Esna,193
may your face sparkle
from the papyrus stalks of life.
I give to you marsh-reeds
which came forth from the mound,
all that grows through your goodness;
that which the earth spits out,
which Nun rejuvenates:
they 22 all move when you shine.
Protective shade for a chick,
the papyrus of Sakhmet serves
as a birth-place in Chemmis:
they perform your protection,
they repeat your guard,
to shield the god within them.
Khnum-Re Lord of Esna:
one brings all plants to your
in your beautiful face.

which emerged in the beginning;
the great plant,
which makes verdant its two lands;

It remains (mn) in your agricultural district,
and it conceals (ḥȝp) 24 your body
in its name of mnḥw-papyrus.196
(It) broadens your territory,
having seized (ṯȝy.n=f) this land,
in this its name of reed (ṯwf).
It has surrounded (ỉtḥ) it (this land)
as a protective wall around it,
in this its name of delta-plant (ỉdḥw).

Greetings to you,

so he might offer it

27 O Khnum-Re, Lord of Esna,
take the divine sweat
which emerged from Thoth;
may you breathe it,
your throat desires it:
fill your lungs with it.
The Son of Re brings it to you,
(namely) (Domitian)|,
so your nose might breathe it daily.
