Lumen de Lumine

Now Reader I have done, and for a farewell I will give thee a most noble, secret, sacred truth. The Chaos it self in the very first Analysis is threefold, the Saphir of the Chaos is likewise threefold. Here thou hast six parts, which is the Pythagoricall Senarius or Numerus Conjugii. In these six the Influx of the Metaphysicall Unitie is sole Monarch, and makes up the seventh Number, or Sabaoth, in which at last by the Assistance of God the Body shall rest. Againe, every one of these six parts is twofold, and these Duplicities are Contrarieties. Here then thou hast twelve, six against six in a desperat Division, and the Unitie of peace amongst them. These Duplicities consist of contrary Natures, One part is good, one bad: one corrupt, one incorrupt: and in the Termes of Zoroaster, one rationall, one irrationall. These bad, corrupt, irrational seeds are the Tares and sequels of the Curse. Now Reader I have unriddl’d for thee the grand mysterious problem of the Cabalist.
