Plain text of Chapter Iii
Another chapter like it.
O God, the Creator, who proceedest from the Waters, who art resplendent, and who strewest Thy words to those who are before Thee;
Here cometh the faithful N, from the band of those who do the bidding of Thy words.
O ye servants of God at the gloaming of the day, let N live after death, as the sun, Thy sign, returneth daily.
Here the helmsman: As the sun is renewed from yesterday by God's command, so shall he too be raised, and as every servant of God exulteth in life, so shall N exult even as they exult in life.
I go forth from the House of the Prince in Heliopolis.
