“Blessed are the generous in love: for theirs is the Love of the Goddess.Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.Blessed are the poor: for they shall inherit the Earth.Blessed are they who hunger and thirst after the knowledge: for they shall be enlightened.Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall be loved by the Goddess.Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the avatars of the Goddess.Blessed are they who are persecuted: for theirs will be the Goddesses’ justice.Blessed are you of the Goddess when the ignorant shall revile you,And persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for the Goddesses sake.”
