way of the truth, with this earth, truly that which ye seek would be obtained. That is
indeed more dear than restoring thy sight unto thyself, should ye be suitable for this
craft. Recognize then the Gold and the Silver, the Sun and the Moon, and the White
and Crimson Gum, perchance ye may be informed. It is through such means that
they say, “The Craft concerneth naught but the two Great Luminaries,” just as ye
observe in the books of the people. Thus appreciate what they say, “Our Gold is not
the gold of the common people, nor is the Silver,” could ye but understand. This is
that which is named ‘The Master of Two Wings’ and is soaring within every body,
and every divine Name applieth comparably unto It. For instance, It applieth unto
the liquid, for It floweth and surgeth; It also applieth unto the fire, for It is torrid
according to its nature; and likewise is the earth, because the hidden treasures
within It becometh dry; and thus the firmament is a conglomeration of that hath
been mingled together in harmony with It. Whosoever gazeth into the mysteries of
the natural world testifieth of such and are of them who, by virtue of their
detachment from all save God and their nearness unto Him, attaineth unto that
exalted station.
