To dissolve the sinews (KYP T32)

Content note: a curse wishing bodily harm.

Let my voice come to you (pl.), they who dissolve the sinews and the ligaments and the joints, that you might dissolve the sinews of NN, forever!

"NN" is a blank: fill in your enemy. Our parasites take a body apart quietly, joint by joint, and this scribe wanted the same power in words. The scribe left the blank because there was always someone.
