Thy tender feet are engaged in kicking at the chest of the God of Death, in pressing down the terrible demon of epilepsy, in travelling on the mountain, and in rubbing against the crown of the celestials that prostrate before Thee. (Therefore, as a measure of protection) move about always putting on the bejewelled foot-wear of my mind. |
