Infinites."

Praising the Alone-begotten, they cry, "It is because of Thy Image (24)
that we have seen Thee, that we have run to Thee, that we have clung to
Thee, that we have received the Incorruptible Crown which is known
through Her. Glory be to Thee, O Alone-begotten, for ever and ever."

Then together do they all say Amen.

For [? Jesus, the Fruit of the AEons] became a Body of Light, He crossed
the AEons of the Indivisible [Body] until He came to the Alone-begotten
who is in the Monad and who dwells in Peace and Solitude. He received

The First Paternity is a face of the Infinite One, and thirty infinite
