It came to pass thereafter that the disciples were gathered together on the Mount of Olives with Jesus. And Jesus stood by the water of the ocean and made invocation, turning to the four corners of the world with his disciples, who were clothed in linen garments.

2"And he said: 'IAŌ, IAŌ, IAŌ! Hear me, O Father, Father of all fatherhood, boundless Light! Hear me, as I make invocation unto thee on behalf of my disciples whom thou hast given unto me.'"

3And as he prayed, there came down a great fire from the height, and fragrant vapors of sweet incense surrounded them.
