Monday, mane hora 9. Prag:e. Having finished our prayers, I invited Ga, Za, Vaa (as being assigned to understand of Rudolph his doings) that of them I might receive instructions. E.K.: 'There appeareth written in great letters upon a right hand (and no body appearing), the hand being very big: "Cui est, habet: cui nihil, non habebit.
