11.2 Horus answered, “I will. Look, I will indeed!” Later, in the evening, a bed was spread for them,

11.3 and they lay down together, the two of them. In the night Seth made his phallus stiff and thrust it between the thighs

11.4 of Horus. Horus put his two hands between his thighs and caught Seth’s semen. Then Horus

11.5 went to tell his mother Isis, “Come to me, Isis, my mother! Come and see what Seth has done to me!” He opened his hands and

11.6 showed her Seth’s semen. She cried out loudly, seized her harpoon, cut off his hands,

11.9 to Seth’s garden and asked his gardener, “Which vegetable is the one

11.2 house.” Horus told him, “I'll do it. Yes, I'll do it, I really will.” Later, in the evening, someone prepared a place for them to lie down.

11.3 They lay down together. In the night Seth made his penis stiff and put it between Horus's thighs.

11.7 threw them into the water. She provided him with replacement hands. Then she fetched some sweet-smelling ointment and put it on Horus's penis.

11.8 She made it stiff and held it over a cup. Horus let his semen fall into the cup. In the morning Isis took Horus's semen
