The Instructions of Ptah-Hotep
Go and Prosper in the Service of the King
If now you attain my position, your body shall flourish, the King shall be content in all that you does, and you shall gather years of life not fewer than I have passed upon earth. I have gathered even five score and ten years of life, for the King has bestowed upon me favors more than upon my forefathers; this because I wrought truth and justice for the King unto mine old age.
IT IS FINISHED
FROM ITS BEGINNING TO ITS END
EVEN AS FOUND IN WRITING.
