                                                 Ships

Erman, Egyptian Religion.

p. 7. The sun, moon and stars sail in ships over the heavenly ocean.

The sun disappears every evening in the West to re-appear in the 

morning in the East; a question usually solved by the Egyptians by 

imagining a second heaven under the Earth, which the sun traverses 

by night. It is a dark place, inhabited by the dead, lighted

at night by the sun when he sails through it in his bark.

<p. 11> ... in the evening arrives at the Mountain of the West, where he is 

received by the Goddess of the West. Here he quits his morning bark in 

which he travels by day, and enters the evening bark to begin his 

nightly journey through the under-world. There he shines forth for 

the great god Osiris, the Eternal Lord.

p. 59. The god is referred to Re He traverses the heavens in peace and is Lord 

of the Evening – and Morning – bark.

p. 89. Thus he journeys over the heavens < A whether by or by night> as companions of the Sun-God
By night he (Thoth <the moon god>) takes him to his bark, and thus hetraverses 

the heavens like Re, and traverses the heavens like Thoth eternally
