The Twenty-first Ceremony

THE TWENTY-FIRST CEREMONY.

In the next ceremonies the various kinds of bread and cakes on the "Tchesert" table were offered one by one. The first was the tept, and as the SEM priest presented it the Kher heb said:--

"Unas, the Eye of Horus hath been presented unto thee for thy tasting."


The Sem priest presenting the Tept cake.

Here there is a play on the words tept, a "kind of bread," and tep, "to taste."
