And believe in you.

As you came into being in Bithynia.
We praise your Mother, the mother of our Beloved God,
And we Praise your Father…the Father of our great God.
The Land of Bithynia is holy to us,
Because you were born there.
We honor and praise the Nation of Bithynia
And her ancient race
We praise the Kings of Bythinia

Who loved Caesar and gave his Kingdom to Rome
Sacred Bithynia Land of the Mother of Antinous

For we are the followers of Antinous.
May the Great Mother of the Gods protect us always,
And set us free from madness.
Beloved Sacred Bithynia, Land of Our Mother.
On this day we celebrate the Birth of Antinous,

Lord Attis, beloved of the Great Mother of the Gods
Lord of the Pine Forest, King of Eunuchs

Hear our Devotion to the Holy Child Antinous,
Who was devoted to You,
Who is a Child of your Children
Intercede for us, Lord Attis and grant us your blessing.

Holy River Sangarius…Lord of Bithynia,
Cleanse us for the New Year,
Strengthen us for the tribulation of the days,
Quench our Thirst for the Love of Antinous,
Your Beautiful Son.
Let all those who Love and Worship Antinous,
Be as children of Bythinia
Let the Moon God rise within us
Let the Beautiful Face of the Child-like Price
Illuminate the night with his silver blessing.
We are the Fullness of Antinous who never wanes.

We praise also the Holy City of Mantineia,
Sacred to Lord Hermes and the Arcadian Pan,
Founded by the Queen Antinoe,
Who was led to the sacred site by a serpent,
Where the great victory of the Sacred Band was fought And Sanctus Epaminondas gave his life.
The Grandfathers of Antinous were colonists
From Mantineia who settled in Bithynia
In your honor great Fathers of Mantineia
We celebrate the Birth of Our Beloved God Antinous.
The Local God of Your Country,
Where a beautiful temple of Antinous once stood
Be with us, Priests of the Mantineian Temple,
Watch over us, guide us, and bless us,
Give us your sacred powers,
For the Love of Antinous
