The prince of planets wrapped in robe of fire!

Enthroned, exalted, beautifully grand!

Clothed in a mantle of effulgent light;

Crowned by the eternal King of kings, whose hand

Arrays in majesty such satellite—

Courtiers that dance around thee with delight;

A band of guardians ever watching o’er thee,

Beaming with thy own beauty through the night,

Veiling their faces when they come before thee,

Like Gheber worshipers when they adore thee.
