EK hard first a sownd of Musicall harmonie. ∆: The Veale was pluckt away. Three cam in, two went away, as was before accustomed. EK: Now he lyeth down. He riseth and pulleth the veale from the chayre. That veale was of cullor as a raynbow. The boke appeared playne and evidently on the globe in the chayre. EK felt the thing ronne in his hed as the other day it did. Me taketh out the rod from under the Table: He sayd, Æternitas in Cælo. ∆: Uppon my staying from speche, he sayd, What wilt thow? ∆: The proceding instruction necessary for understanding of the boke. Me: Mensuratur.1096 ∆: He putteth up his rod to the boke. Me: Sint oculi illorum clari, ut intelligant.1097 [He held up his hands and semed to pray.] He pointed now to the second row of the 49 rows of the first page of the boke, and sayd, Secundus a primo. 1.

I wold gladly be resolued of that dowt if it pleas you. EK: He boweth down, and put the rod away, and than Kneled down. Δ: He rose and axed me, What wilt thow? Δ: The former question to be soluted. Me: Thow hast written fals: for, it must be Ihehudz, and so it is of 7 letters. Δ: Yf euery side conteyne 49 rows, and euery row will require so much tyme to be receyued as this hath done it may seme that very long time will be requisite to this doctrine receyuing: But if it be gods good liking, we wold fayne haue some abridgment or compendious manner, wherby we might the soner be in the work of Gods servyce. EK: The Chayre and the Table are snatched away,1113 and seme to fly toward heven. And nothing appeared in the stone at all: But was all transparent clere. Δ: What this snatching away of Chayre and Table doth meane we know not: But if the Lord be offended with his yonglings, and Novices in thes Mysteries, for propownding or requiring a compendious Method &c, Then we are very sorry, and ax forgivenes for the rashnes of our lipps: and desyre his maiestie not to deale so rigorously with us: as thowgh we had sufficient wisdom or warning, to beware of such motions or requests making to his ministers. Let it not be so sayd of the holy one of Israel: but let his mercies abownd with us to his glorie. Amen. EK: Now commeth all down agayn, as before. Me: What are the Sonnes of men, that they put time in her own bosom? or measure a Judgment that is unsearchable? Δ: Me: I help thy imperfections: What, man thinketh wisdome, is error in our sight. But bicause my Nature is to cure, and set up those that fall, Thus much understand. As I haue sayde: The 49 partes of this boke1114 -49 voyces, Whereunto the so many powres, with theyr inferiors and subiects,1115 haue byn, are, and shalbe obedient. Euery Element in this mysterie is a world of understanding. Euery one knoweth here what is his due obedience: and this shall differ thee in speche from a mortall creature.1116 Consider with thy self, How thow striuest against thyne own light, and shaddowest the windows of thyne own understanding. I haue sayde: Be it unto thee, as God will. I am not a powre or whirlewynde that giueth occasion of offence. Longe sumus a peruersitate destructionis.1117 Thus much I haue sayd, for thy reformation and understanding. Δ:1118 Me: Lo, untill the Secrets of this boke be written, I come no more: neyther of me shall You haue any apparition. Yet, in powre, my office shall be here.1119 Say, what you here, for every word shall be named unto you: it is somwhat a shorter way, and more according to your desyre. Euery Element1120 hath 49 manner of understandings. Therin is comprehended so many languages.1121 They are all spoken at ones, and seuerally, by them selues, by distinction may be spoken. Untill thow come to the Citie, thow canst not behold the beawty thereof. Nihil hic est, quod non est perfectum.1122 I go. I haue sayde, (and it is true,) No unclean thing shall enter: Much less, then, here: For, it is the sight of whose Maiestie we tremble and quake at. He shall teache, of himself; for, we are not worthy.1123 What then, of your selues? But such is his great and singular fauor, that, he is of him self, and with those, whom he choseth.1124 For, the ende of all things is at hand,1125 and Powre must distinguish, or els nothing can prevayle. What you here, yea what thow feelest, by thy finger, Recorde; and seale sure. This is all, and in this is conteyned all, that comprehendeth all, The allmighty powre and profunditie of his glory. What els? As thow seest, and till he see, whose sight,1126 is the light of this his own powre, His might is great. The dew of his stedfastnes and glorious perfection hold up and rectify the weaknes of your fragilitie: Make you strong to the ende of his workmanship to whome I commit you. EK: He plucketh the veale ouer all. A voyce afterward:-Ne Ne Ne na Jabes. Δ: Sanctus Sanctus Sanctus Dominus Deus Zebaoth: Pleni sunt cæli et terra gloria Maiestatis eius. Cui soli omnis honor, laus et gloria.1127 Amen.
