Bless me, mother, for I am thy child

Blessed be my eyes, that I may see thy path

Blessed be my nose, that I may breathe thy essence

Blessed be my mouth, that I may speak of thee

Blessed be my breast, that I may be faithful in thy works

Blessed be my loins, which bring forth the life of man

As though hast brought forth all creation

Blessed be my feet, that I may walk in thy ways

Blessing be upon thee, creature of salt.

Let all malignity and hinderance pass henceforth

And let all good enter in.

We are mindful that as water purifies the body

So the salt purifies the soul.

Wherefore do I bless thee

In the names of Aradia and Cernurros,

That thou mayest aid me.
