LXXXVIII.
In the name of the great life
Be glorified the noble light.
Urgently I exhort you, my elect,
who have gone up with me to the Jordan.
Twist and change me not,
change me not with your hand.
Twist and do not change me,
you men who have heard the call of life.
He who listens to the call of life is built up.
He is built up and armed,
and his strength is doubled.
Again, he who listens to the call of life
receives rich gain.
He neither gains nor loses;
he is united with the Great.
He is united with the Great One,
he ascends and beholds the place of light.
Life is held high and is victorious,
and victorious is the man who has gone here.
