She is the milker of heaven, visible, a light of treasures in front. She follows the path of order; rightly beloved, she does not search the directions like the many.
She, the daughter of heaven, is beheld in the east, gracious and arrayed in light; she travels steadily along the path of the sun, as if cognizant (of his plural asure), and damages not the quarters (of the horizon).
There in the eastern region she, Heaven's Daughter, arrayed in garments all of light, appeareth. Truly she fo1loweth the path of Order, nor faileth, knowing well, the heavenly quarters.
