I have ascended to you
with the Great One behind me
and <my> purity before me:
I have passed by Tefnut,
even while Tefnut was purifying me,
and indeed I am a priest, the son of a priest in this temple.
~Papyrus Berlin 3055


Atum said: Tefnut is my living daughter, she is together with her brother Shu . "Life" is his name, "truth" is her name ... "life" sleeps with my daughter "truth" 
~Pyramid texts
