passage as meaning “_I seek_ the direction of _the wind_ in order to avoid it.” But I am inclined to recognize a superstition still current among sailors, the “whistling for a breeze.” The oldest copies and the more recent ones have different readings, and though the words _uḫa ḫemu_ occur repeatedly in the Pyramid Texts, the second word is not written ⁂⁂⁂⁂, as in the Theban papyri, but ⁂⁂⁂⁂. ------------------------------------
