Chapter whereby the Heart is given to a person in the Netherworld.

He saith: Heart mine to me, in the place of Hearts! Whole Heart mine to me, in the place of Whole Hearts!

Let me have my Heart that it may rest within me; and I shall feed upon the food of the righteous, on the eastern side of the mead of amaranthine flowers.

Be mine a bark for descending the stream and another for ascending.

I go down into the bark.

Be there given to me my mouth wherewith to speak, and my feet for walking; and let me have my arms wherewith to overthrow my adversaries.

Let God, by His command, open my mouth: let the angel part my two jaws; let him open my two eyes which are closed, and give motion to my two hands which are powerless, and give vigour to my legs, that I may raise myself up upon them.

And may the angel lift me up, so that I may arise in Heaven.

I am in possession of my Heart, I am in possession of my Whole Heart, I am in possession of my arms and I have possession of my legs.

My soul is not held back at the gates of the Unseen Realm.
