On the Anointing

[A short liturgical instruction; only a few lines survive.]

It is fitting that you should give thanks at the time of the anointing. [Line damaged]

For the oil is the mercy of the Father; by it we are anointed and sealed, that we may receive the imperishable, and be made worthy of the rest, and enter the bridal chamber of the light. [Text missing]

[Here the witness breaks off.]
