The Soul`s Deliverance
Hail to you, hail to you, soul, for you have departed from the world.

You have left corruption behind and the stinking body in which you found yourself, the abode, the abode of the wicked, the place which is all sin, the World of Darkness, of hatred, envy, and strife,
the abode in which the planets live, bringing sorrows and infirmities; they bring sorrows and infimities, and every day they cause unrest.

Rise up, rise up, soul, ascend to your first earth.

To your first earth, ascend, to the place from which you were transplanted, to the place from which you were transplanted, to the fine abode of the uthras.

Bestir yourself, put on your garment of radiance and put on your resplendent wreath.

Sit on your throne of radiance, which the Life set up for you in the Place of Light.

Rise up, inhabit the skinas, among the uthras, your brothers.

As you have learnt, pronounce the blessing over your first father`s house.

And curse this place the house of your earthly guardian.

For the years that you spent in it, the Seven were your enemies, the Seven were your enemies.

Your enemies were the Seven, and the Twelve were your persecutors.
