Whose Father is the Sky, whose Mother is the Earth, whose root the Ocean hath become—the Plants: may those divine Herbs advance to aid thee for the winning of a son.
Których Ojcem jest Niebo, których Matką jest Ziemia, których korzeniem Ocean się stał, te Rośliny: niech te boskie Zioła przybędą, by ci pomóc w zdobyciu syna.
