Leadership Week at Brigham Young University where collector Wilford C. Wood displays "a silver piece that was Emma's most priceless possession, that was taken from the pocket of the Prophet-from his dead body. What do you think it was? In hieroglyphics . . . that the Prophet would save: CONFIRMO, O DEUS POTENTISSIMUS (Make me, Oh God, all-powerful)." English texts of magic give the incantation phrase of Jupiter talisman as: "Confirm, O God, they strength in us."
