Prayer for the baptism wreath

3807057Mandaïsche Liturgien — Prayer 191920Mark Lidzbarski
XIX.
Mandā created me,
Uthras strengthened me,
they clothed me with splendor,
covered me with light.
Hazazban set the wreath on the head on me, NN,
as well as those souls who go down to the Jordan and are baptized.
Its tendrils shine,
and its fragrance is pleasant.
It does not wither or come apart,
and its leaves do not fall off.
And blessed be the life.

Commentary[edit]

This is the saying for the wreath at baptism.
Read it over the myrtle garland
and place it on the head of the souls you baptize.
