Men and women both march with hands upheld before their faces, singing in unison a psalm in praise of Osiris, while their leader, the queen, tells the god that she is "rattling the sistra before thy beautiful face."1 The act of The office at which the votaries attend and at which the king officiates is the cul sacrifice minating act, the purification which consecrates the sacrifice by "the burning of incense and p...
