Only the determinative of the standing man with raised arms (Gardiner A28) and the vertically grouped plural strokes (Z3) are preserved; the word ḥꜥꜥ.wt: "jubilation", Wb 3, 41.3-10 is the most likely restorarion. ḥꜥꜥ.wt is attested since the Old Kingdom, but the word was commonly reduced to hꜥꜥ.w from the New Kingdom onwards. Whether the feminine ending was used in the present case cannot be determined with certainty, since it is usually placed before the determinative. The lack of a female ending at the wnn, however, might indicate a masculine form.

Whether and how ḥw is linked to the preceding text passage cannot be determined. Because of the small excerpt of preserved text, a syntactic analysis of the present compound sentence cannot be undertaken.

Most frequently, the word ḥw is attested next to nouns with a similar meaning, such as ḏfꜣ(.w) and ḥtp.t, s Wb 3, 44.13-14. As the remains of a snake (I10) can be traced above the broken edge, ḏfꜣ or the plural ḏfꜣ.w: "food(s)", Wb 5, 569.9-571.5, might be reconstructed here. In particular in the funerary prayers, provisions play a prominent role. In this context, the divine sphere is often praised as inexhaustible source of sustenance and all kinds of food. Thus, it can be assumed that this ideal state was further described with other nouns.
