The great dome of Heaven rises above, and no man knows its limitations.
The broad Earth is spread wide, and no man knows its boundaries.
Man cannot fathom it all; O God who is great, have compassion on my littleness.
Bear patiently with my blunderings, and overlook my ignorance.
Your reach is so great, and mine is so small; help me to know You for myself.
I am helpless and lost.
Hail to The Supreme Power and Spirit!
O Great God, who brings comfort to the prisoner, peace to the tormented; who strengthens the fearful and adjusts the scales between the
weak and the strong.
Strengthen my desire to understand Your great purpose.
O Sole God, whose tears vitalise the hearts of men, in reverence and humility my spirit awaits Your command, my Creator and my Light.
Hail to The Supreme Power and Spirit!
O Great Craftsman, who fashioned man so wonderfully, who brought together the elements of the Earth and transmuted them so mysteriously, who created with such diversity that no two things are exactly alike, give Your servant some task, that he may accomplish it to Your glory.
O Provident Benefactor, who provides sustenance for the beasts of the wilderness and fills the storehouses of men, who placed the great metals in the bosom of the Earth, that man might draw them forth, let not my body go naked, nor my sleeping place be destroyed.
Accept my homage, O God of Truth, who lives down through the ages of time, which make up the
everlasting Circle of Eternity.
Hail to The Supreme Power and Spirit!
O Powerful God, whose wrath lit up the vaults of Heaven and whose fire devoured the wicked in olden times, whose whirlwind swept clean the Earth, who lifted the seas and dashed them against the mountains.
O let not the great forces of Earth afflict me.
Hold them fast in Your hand, that they may not crush me as the chariot crushes the ant.
Hail to The Supreme Power and Spirit!

The Faraday effect or Faraday rotation, sometimes referred to as the magneto-optic Faraday effect (MOFE),[1] is a physical magneto-optical phenomenon. The Faraday effect causes a polarization rotation which is proportional to the projection of the magnetic field along the direction of the light propagation. Formally, it is a special case of gyroelectromagnetism obtained when the dielectric permittivity tensor is diagonal.[2]
Discovered by Michael Faraday in 1845, the Faraday effect was the first experimental evidence that light and electromagnetism are related. The theoretical basis of electromagnetic radiation (which includes visible light) was completed by James Clerk Maxwell in the 1860s and 1870s and Oliver Heaviside. This effect occurs in most optically transparent dielectric materials (including liquids) under the influence of magnetic fields.
The Faraday effect is caused by left and right circularly polarized waves propagating at slightly different speeds, a property known as circular birefringence. Since a linear polarization can be decomposed into the superposition of two equal-amplitude circularly polarized components of opposite handedness and different phase, the effect of a relative phase shift, induced by the Faraday effect, is to rotate the orientation of a wave's linear polarization.
