Free, let thine soul soar ever upward,free from the bondage and fetters of night. Lift thine eyes to the Sun in the sky-space.
For thee, let it be a symbol of life. Know that thou art the Greater Light,perfect in thine own sphere,when thou art free.
Look not ever into the blackness.
Lift up thine eyes to the space above. Free let thine Light flame upward and shalt thou be a Child of the Light.
