THE ANGEL OF EARTH We invoke the Abundant Earth! That possesseth Health and Happiness And is more powerful Than all its Creatures. This wide earth do we praise, Expanded far with paths, The productive, the full-bearing, Thy mother, holy plant! We praise the lands where thou dost grow, Sweet scented, swiftly spreading, The good growth of the Earthly Mother. We praise the good, the strong, the beneficent Angel of Earth, Who doth rejoice in the dew of heaven, The fatness of the earth, And the abundant harvest Of corn and grapes.

He who sows corn, grass and fruit Soweth the Holy Law: He maketh the Law of the Creator to progress. When all the earth shall be a garden, Then shall all the bodily world become free From old age and death, from corruption and rot, Forever and forever.
