THE CANONICAL PRAYERBOOK OF THE MANDAEANS

PRAYER #19

Manda created me, 'uthras set me up, radiance clothed me and light covered me: Haza-zban set the wreath on my head, mine, Adam-Yuhana , son of Mahnush, and on these souls who descend to the jordan and are baptised.

Its tendrils shine and its perfume is sweet, for they (the tendrils) wither not nor do they come apart, and its leaves do not fall off.

And Life be praised!


[This is the set prayer for the baptism wreath.

Recite it over the myrtle-wreath and place it on the heads of the souls that thou baptisest].
