THE COMPLETE GOLDEN DAWN SYSTEM OF MAGIC<br />

(<strong>The</strong> Stolistes follows the course <strong>of</strong> the sun, coming eastward from his place in the<br />

North. He faces the Hierophant and <strong>of</strong>fers him his vessel for consecration. <strong>The</strong> Hierophant<br />

blesses with the Cross and says:)<br />

Hierophant.<br />

Bless us, 0 Lord, we beseech <strong>The</strong>e, and this Thy gift <strong>of</strong> water, which we are about to<br />

use in Thy service as a sign without <strong>of</strong> graces that are communicated within.<br />

(<strong>The</strong> Stolistes makes a Cross with his Cup and sprinkles thrice in the East. He<br />

proceeds in succession to South, West and North, facing each point, where he repeats the<br />

Cross sign and sprinkles. He completes the circle by returning to the East. He again faces<br />

the Hierophant, lifts up the Cup <strong>of</strong> Water and says:)<br />

Stolistes.<br />

Hierophant.<br />

To him who has fulfilled election, there is given a Robe <strong>of</strong> Glory. Let the mystical<br />
