As your host and guide, I traveled with you to the Necropolis of that Queen, the place called Ribreteper, and I showed you the most cherished things belonging to that Queen: the alters in the chapels of her Gods; the carvings of the monuments to her husband, Remptahhu Justified, and to her Son, Tutimaios Emperor Esintsundu, Life Prosperity Health, and to her daughter, Ajōrēshakheto; and the Constitution of our country, signed by that Queen's Majesty and given to My People to guard their liberty, security, and prosperity.
