The dignified one of the king, overseer of the storehouse Mentu〈hotep〉 says: I came out of my city, I descended from my nome, after I had done what people loved and what gods praised, after I made the god satisfied with what 〈he〉 liked, and after I had spoken truly (lit. in trueness). I have never done anything evil against any people. I was one who said what was good and reported what was liked - the overseer of the storehouse Mentuhotep, who says: O living ones, who are on earth, who shall pass by this tomb 〈of〉 the necropolis, may you say: "A thousand of bread, beer, bulls and fowl for the ka of Mentuhotep, justi[fied]!" One truly beloved of his lord, overseer of the storehouse Mentuhotep. The dignified Senet, conceived of Senet, justified, mistress of dignity.
