“Though thou art very far away, thy rays are on the earth; even though thou art on the faces of men, thy traces are invisible.”53 Aton is “the creator of the seed in woman,” and it is he who gives life to the embryo and guards the birth and growth of the child—even as he also gives breath to the chick in the egg and later protects it. “How diverse are thy works! They are hidden before men, O! only God, beyond whom there is no another.”
