Ye rejoice, and My servants are grieved, that this secret goeth forth from My treasury. By virtue of it the voice of your academies [soundeth] as [the voice of] fattened calves. Not with toil and not with weariness [do they learn], but with the name of this seal and with the mention of the fearful crown. He that marveleth at you, and he that grieveth grieveth because of you; many die in their sighing, and their souls go forth by reason of the repute of your glory,

Wealth and riches increase upon you; the great of the world cleave unto you; that family from which ye marry a daughter is known on all sides to be noble, he that is blessed in you is truly blessed, he that rejoiceth in you rejoiceth truly. Ye are called, ‘Those who turn many to righteousness’; they call ye, ‘Those who prove men innocent.’ The determinations of the months proceed from your [council], and the intercalculation of years from the subtlety of your wisdom.
