Odes of Solomon
tr. Harris, 1911
Chapter 13
1Behold! the Lord is our mirror1: open the eyes and see them in Him: and learn the manner of your face: 2and tell forth praise to His spirit: and wipe off the filth from your face: and love His holiness, and clothe yourselves therewith: 3and be without stain at all times before Him. Hallelujah.
