XVIII.
In the name of the great life.


On the day the great Bihrām wrapped up his banner,
360 guards settled on it.
They covered it with chains of precious stones
and put the seal of the great (life) on it.


The great (life) blessed with his pure mouth
the man who settled here and said to him:
"From your splendor grew,
from your light the whole world was illuminated".


Our Father illuminates with his wondrous voice, saying,
"Let not every one that is true and believing
go to Jordan early in the morning,
and be marked with the sign of Jordan altogether".


Commentary

[edit]
Recite this song and wrap the banner on the day of the great feast... together, (this song) alone.
Every day you perform a baptism, wrap the banner together with the said song and cover it.
