Thus we see that the modern custom of drinking magical water was derived from the ancient Egyptians, who believed that it conveyed into their bodies the actual power of their gods. The text of this legend is cut in hieroglyphics on the walls of the temple of Edfu in Upper Egypt, and certain portions of it are illustrated by large bas-reliefs.
The color of Edfu is a pale and delicate brown, warm in the strong sunshine, but seldom glowing. Its first doorway is extraordinarily high, and is narrow, but very deep, with a roof showing traces of that delicious clear blue-green which is like a thin cry of joy rising up in the solemn temples of Egypt.
But though I know this, I am never able to associate Edfu with Horus, that child wearing the side-lock when he is not hawk-headed in his solar aspect that boy with his finger in his mouth, that youth who fought against Set, murderer of his father.
French "Promenoir"; this is perhaps best expressed by "Processional Hall," in accordance with the description of its purpose on p. 67. Most of the famous sanctuaries Denderah, Edfû, Abydos were founded before Men a by the Servants of Hor.
