O Mighty Isis, Briareos is quite please that you had a wonderful evening. He is also quite pleased with being able to entertain the lady of Khebt on that same night in his humble abode.
I think you meant:
The great lady, the God-mother, lady of Re-a-nefer; Isis-Nebuut, lady of Sekhet; lady of Besitet; Isis in Per Pakht, the queen of Mesen; Isis of Ta-at-nehepet; Isis, dweller in Netru; Isis, lady of Hebet; Isis in P-she-Hert; Isis, lady of Khebt; Usert-Isis, giver of life, lady of Abaton, lady of Philae, lady of the countries of the south,
but you made a mean dinner, so I'll let it slide this time.
