			*The new analytical translation as given above was prepared in 1982 for inclusion in the Appendix to "The Holy Books of Thelema" (ed. Hymenaeus Beta, revised edition, 93 Publishing, 1989). It reflects the advances in Egyptian lexicography achieved during the last seventy years. The transliteration of proper names as found in "The Book of the Law" is given in brackets (for the paraphrased version of the text on the stèle, see AL III, 37-38). (We thank Harold M. Hays, from the Dept. of Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations, Univ. of Chicago, for his kind assistance with linguistic questions).
