Entry text

The foresaid covenant being framed by me, John Dee, as near as I could according to the intent and faith of us required, to be notified and declared by our works of unity both spiritual and corporal. Now it was by the women as by ourselves thought necessary to understand the will of God and his good pleasure, whether this covenant and form of words performed is and will be acceptable and according to the well liking of his Divine Majesty. Hereupon E.K. and I went into the chapel to the Holy Table. I read over the covenant (verbatim) before the Divine Majesty and his holy angels. Pausa 74 hora:. E.K.: 'Here appeareth Madimi. A thing like a head with three eyes cometh upon her head, and one of the eyes seem to go one into another.' MADIMI: 'Are you ready?': 'We are ready.' MADIMI: 'It is decided. Make haste. Let everything be in common among you. 'Be of God, not of man. Take possession of what has been promised. The things that have been destined to you are true. I am eternal.' E.K.: 'She is gone. Mythought an infinite number of spiritual creatures stood afar off behind her like as in a half moon.'
