Confess unto Thee, Thou Hawk-Headed One,
That I have neglected Thy Mighty Decree,
Oh how shall I humble myself before Thee?
For Thou art the Unconquered Lord I acclaim!
And I but a spark of Thine Unutterable Flame!
How shall I approach Thee, who art Everywhere?
But Thou hast called me to promise and swear
To be Thy Servant and Thy Warrior-Priest!
But I have done evil; I have profaned the East!
I bow my neck before Thee; I am in Thy Power:
Strike if Thou wilt or spare me this hour!
But accept me as I am, Lord of Terrible Might,
And so shall I enter the Secret Path of Night,
If haply I may attain to Thy Mystical Light!

O Thou Hawk-Headed Mystical Lord,
Thou Whose Word is the Great Reward!
Only-begotten Child who I acclaim,
From Mighty Isis and Osiris Slain!

Slayer of Typhon, Thee whom I adore!
Thou who didst lift thine Holy Head
And the Nile Crocodile was defeated!
Thou who dost conceal with the Night
This Immense Universe of starry-light!
Thou who dost abide at the glorious Helm
Of the Boat of Ra, in the infinite Realm!
Thou who dost bear the Magick Double-Wand,
And the Rose and Cross of the Mystick Bond,
Thee I invoke from the Inscrutable Beyond!
Strike, Strike, the Master Chord!
Draw, Draw, the Flaming Sword!
Crowned Child and Conquering Lord!
Horus, Avenger!

(VAV - AIR - UNIFICATION)
Mine is the Head of the Man of this Rite,
As keen and subtle as the Hawk's is my Sight!
By my Head I invoke Thee, O Lord of the Light!
It is I, the only-begotten Child I say,
Of the Sun and Moon, of both Night and Day!
By my body I invoke Thee, and to Thee I pray!
For mine is the Sign that is given of none,
Save it be of Thee, O Thou Hawk-Headed Son!
By the Sign I invoke Thee, O Thou Mighty One!
And mine is the Triumphant Sign of Apophis,
The Destroyer and Mighty Lord of Darkness!
It is I who bears the Word of Double Power
And the Song of Old which I sing this hour!
And in my hand is Thy Holy Sword to Avenge:
By these I invoke Thee, O Lord of Revenge!

(HEH FINAL - EARTH - MATERIALIZATION)
Mine is the Head of the Hawk of Flame:
Child of Isis and Osiris is my Name!
It is I who formulated my Father above,
And I who made fertile my Mother with Love!
I am the Avenger of the Unspeakable Terror,
Of Great Typhon, I am the Mighty Slayer!
It was I, the One who raised my Holy Head
And the Nile Crocodile was annihilated!
It is I who shrouds the Night-Blue Sky
With my Vast Nemyss as I soar and fly!
It is I who abides at the glorious Helm
Of the Boat of Ra, in the infinite Realm!
It is I who bears the Double-Wand of Power,
And the Cross of Gold and the Ruby Flower,
For I am Horus, Who is invoked this Hour!
Strike, Strike, the Master Chord!
Draw, Draw, the Flaming Sword!
Crowned Child and Conquering Lord!
Horus, Avenger!
