א
o. Say thou that He God is one; God is the
Everlasting One; nor hath He any Equal, or
any Son, or any Companion.
Nothing shall
stand before His face.
'I. Even for five hundred and eleven times
nightly for one and forty days did I cry aloud
unto the Lord the affirmation of His Unity.
2. Also did I glorify His wisdom, whereby
He made the worlds.
3. Yea, I praised Him for His intelligible
essence, whereby the universe became light.
4. I did thank Him for His manifold mercy;
I did worship His magnificence and majesty.
5. I trembled before His might.
6. I delighted in the Harmonyand Beauty
of His Essence.
7. In His Victory I pursued His enemies;
yea I drave them down the steep; I thundered
after them into the utmost abyss; yea, therein
I partook of the glory of my Lord.
