��watchest us and reachest unto us thy hand and thy foot that we may be held in them and go beholding these few days in this world where thou didst leave us. In darkness we grope for we are vile and with our filthiness do we obstruct ourselves.

The heat must take itself hence that this invalid may recover. With these few words do we beg thy forgiveness. Thou wilt repel the heat with thy arrows and with thy chimales. Do not look askance. Thou must reach unto us thy hand that we may be gath- ered into it in all hours. Then will no evil befall us. With all manner of cold will our Lady purify us. Then will this invalid recover. So be it. With these few words do I beg thy forgiveness. Thou who wast created beneath the east, the north, the west and the south art seated above us in the seven beautiful heavens whence thou watchest us in all hours.

Thus do we beg thy pardon. Soon will this invalid see again. With thy arrows wilt thou cleanse him; thou wilt cast aside the affliction that he may not die. This only do I say unto thee, my Lord, my Guide, my Morning Star. May God bless thee.
