Glory be to Thee, O Lord my God! I beg of Thee by Thy Name through which
He Who is Thy Beauty hath been stablished upon the throne of Thy Cause,
and by Thy Name through which Thou changest all things, and gatherest
together all things, and callest to account all things, and rewardest all
things, and preservest all things, and sustainest all things--I beg of Thee
to guard this handmaiden who hath fled for refuge to Thee, and hath sought
the shelter of Him in Whom Thou Thyself art manifest, and hath put her
whole trust and confidence in Thee.

She is sick, O my God, and hath entered beneath the shadow of the Tree of
Thy healing; afflicted, and hath fled to the City of Thy protection;

Ever-Forgiving, the Most Merciful.

warmed, and the downtrodden are raised up. Through Thy name, O my God, all
created things were stirred up, and the heavens were spread, and the earth
was established, and the clouds were raised and made to rain upon the
earth. This, verily, is a token of Thy grace unto all Thy creatures.

I implore Thee, therefore, by Thy name through which Thou didst manifest
Thy Godhead, and didst exalt Thy Cause above all creation, and by each of
Thy most excellent titles and most august attributes, and by all the
virtues wherewith Thy transcendent and most exalted Being is extolled, to
send down this night from the clouds of Thy m
