Hello - 

The entire message is mirrored - or backward, if you will.  It says:
"I show not your face but your heart's desire."

Hi!
To go right back to Book 1 - does anyone know what the inscription around  the mirror actually means?  I've figure out that Erised is desire backwards,  but then I've come to a brickwall - I checked out the possibility of it  being Latin,b ut I couldn't find any meaning in a Latin dictionary - but I'm  sure I read somewhere that JK said there is a meaning to it - but it was for  the readers to go and do some investiagative work and work it out for  themselvs!
