he laid siege to the stronghold in question with a wall around its exterior on account of the enemies who were within it who had inflicted great wrong upon Egypt , having abandoned the path of duty to Pharaoh and duty |14 [ to the ] gods .

He caused to be dammed up the canals which provided water for the stronghold in question , the like of which no former pharaohs had been able to do , expending much silver upon it .

He appointed a force of infantry and cavalry at the mouth of the canals in question to watch over and guard them because of the overflow of water which was great in year 8 at |15 the canals in question , which provided water for an extensive area and were ( therefore ) extremely deep .

Pharaoh seized the stronghold in question by force in a short time ; he prevailed over the enemies who were within it and gave them over to slaughter as did Re and Horus son of Isis to those who were hostile to them in the said places |16 formerly .
