 Over fig. 1. is the name of the king, Remeses HI. 

 Before him is represented the gateway (on which the 

 sculptures are), and the words "he dedicates the gate of 

 the temple to you; he Phrah (Pharaoh) does this, to 

 whom life has been given." In answer to which the 

 God says, " I give you all the regions of the world (or 

 Egypt), and all the foreign lands." Over the god, fig. 2., 

 is " This is (the word *) of Amun-re, Lord of the region 

 of the world (or Egypt.) I give you a completely pure 

 and established (durable) life and all * * * * ." 

 The other compai'tment is very similar. The legend of 

 the god varies, reading " This is of Amun-re, king of 

 the Gods, lord of heaven. I give you a completely pui"e 

 durable life [or life, stability, and purity) and all fortune."
