BENEDICTION:
Isa preserve you! he who is revealed In these eight forms by man perceptitle - Water of all creation's works the first; The Fire that bears on high the sacrifice Presented with solemnity to Heaven ; The Priest, the Holy Offerer of gifts; The Sun and Moon, those two majestic orbs,
Eternal marshallers of day and night; The subtle Ether vehicle of sound, Diffused throughout the boundless Universe; The Earth, by sages called 'the place of Birth' Of all material essences and things; And Air, which giveth life to all that breathe.
