<p><strong>What the corpus itself says about the Mothers — gathered, translated, and set in order.</strong></p><p>Few subjects in Ifá attract more speculation and less text than the Iyaami. This volume answers that with the verses. The Odu that speak directly of the Mothers are collected here in Yorùbá and English: what is said of the Eleye, the missions they carry, the protection they extend, and the sacrifices that answer them.</p><p>The work is presented for practitioners who need the source rather than rumor about it. Where a verse is difficult, the difficulty is shown instead of smoothed over. Where the tradition withholds, the withholding is respected.</p><p>Sacred verses on the Mothers, the Eleye, and the hidden power of the night. Part of the Nubala Ifá Library.</p>
