Whose serpents strain\n Thou in the Light & in the Night! \nHe lays the Wand, etc., on the Altar, uses the Scourge on his buttocks, cuts a cross with the Daggar upon his breast & tightens the Chain of the Bell about his forehead, saying:\n \n The Lustral Water! Smite thy flood\n Through me\u00c4Lymph, marrow & blood! Annointing the Wounds, say\n The Fire Informing! Let the Oil\n Balance, assain, assoil!
