Lumen de Lumine

For my part, I advise you to take two living mercuries, plant them in a purified mineral Saturn, wash them and feed them with water of vegetable salt. Then you will see the adept’s saying fulfilled: “The mother will bear a germinal flower, nourish it with her viscous breast, and turn her whole self into food for it, while the father fosters it.” But a process or recipe is no part of my purpose, so I will return to the first matter and say that it is no kind of water whatsoever. Reader, if you wish to reach the truth, rely on my words, for I speak the truth and am no deceiver.
