The third Capitall Form is Anguish which ariseth from the desire of Impression and from the Enmitie of Compunction where the will standeth in (i) Torment and is there the cause of feeling and of the five Senses for in the Anguish all Formes grow Painfull and then are they sensible of one-another And here is the Word become distinct and is the root of Sulphur both Spirituall and Essentiall Corporall wherein is rightly understood the Hellish Fire in Darkness in painfull life as appears in the Table downward IV.

Is the Abyss the Nothing and the All There we begin to consider what God in himself is without or besides Nature and Creature and this consideration of the hidden God extendeth unto Wisedom Numb. 7. Therein is understood how God dwelleth in all and how all things from him have their existence but himself is to all Incomprehensible and as a Nothing yet through that All he maketh himself visible sensible and (a) attainable Numb. 2. Is the Will of the Abyss And by it at the right side FATHER and on the other side J E. This signifieth the Will of the Abyss which is the Father of all Beings And the J E signifieth the Eternall One as the Name JESUS from the Eternall One Numb. 3. Is the (b) Delight Lubet or Impression of the Will by which towards the right standeth SON and opposite to it H O signifying how the self will includeth it self in the place of its possession The place is the procreation out of it self where God begetteth God according to the good pleasure of his propriety The HO is the breathing of the will through which the Delight passeth Numb. 4. Is Science or Motion at the Right standeth SPIRIT and over against it V A. Science is the attraction of the Will to the place of God where the Will comprehendeth the Delight which proceeded to the Son or to the breathing by which outbreathing is understood the Spirit of God And here is understood the great Name JEHOVA as the (d) Tri-une Being
breath of the Omnipotent Spirit The word JEHOVAH is the most holy Name of God as the Divine sensual life the only good whereby the Holy Trinity with Glory and Omnipotency is understood the life of the Abyss as of the Unity which chiefly standeth in the only love And therein also is understood the most holy Name JESUS as the egress'd I is the ground and fountain of the breathing of Gods Unitie and a forming of the understanding For the egress of the Unity leadeth it self with the I into E as in the sight or beholding of a Chaos wherein the Mysterium magnum according to the Divine manner is understood and is a triple breathing of the powers J E is the breathing of the Unitie H O is the breathing of the J E. V A is the breathing of the H O and yet is only one breathing but maketh a triple egress of the 3. Centers or comprehensions And therein is understood how the triple I at last closeth it self in A as in a beginning to Nature Under V A standeth Life signifying that this threefold breathing is a real life and power Under that standeth Vertue which signifieth the immense Vertue of such a breathing life Now in this Table is rightly understood what God without Nature and Creature is in Trinitie as in a triple breathing of the Unitie in it self where nothing can be said of the place or dimension of his habitation for God is neither here nor there but every where alike as the Abyss is consider'd namely the Eternall Unitie without Nature and Creature and thus is he an active power and essence of Unity But that really such power and vertue is therein may well be understood in the effluence of the world and the Creatures therein generated by the breath of God and there is nothing in the being of this world which beareth not witness thereof if truly considered TETRAGRAMMATON In this Table is also manifested how the holy Name of the Eternall power with the knowledge hereof from Eternity to Eternity bringing it self into properties in Nature to eternal light darkness and how the word of breathing forth brings it self into a subject and how self-will acceptation of properties arise in the subject wherein two Essences are alwayes understood as Gods own effluence and then the properties own acceptation in the free wil in which acceptation another externall kinde of subject is understood whereby the Unity in its Effluence becomes more external and thereby the Eternal love bringeth it self into a sensiblenes and like a fiery flame as in the working of divine Power At the upper end of the Table standeth Dark World and under The first Principle and over-against it standeth Gods Love Light World and below it from the figure 4. to the figure 7. the second Principle which signifieth how the outflown will doth inclose and overshadow it self with acceptation of its own desire and with the self desire bringeth it self into properties and causeth Darkness in which Darkness the egressed one by fire in the Light is revealed and made sensible and is the cause of the Light in which Light Gods love assumeth a fiery operation from the fire of eternal Nature and shineth in fire through the dark painful acceptation even as the light from a Candle or day in the Night whence day and night have their names in Time but in the Eternal there is also an Eternal light and darkness in one another the Darkness is the ground of Nature and the Light is the ground of the joyful Divine Revelation The Dark world as the ground of the properties of self-desire and will is called the first Principle because it is the cause of Divine Revelation according to sensibilitie and also maketh a (a) proper Kingdom in it self as namely painfull torment according to which God calleth himself an Angry Jealous God and a consuming fire And the Light which is revealed in the fire wherein the unity of the divine effluence of Love is understood is called the second Principle as the divine Power-world wherein Gods love is a love-fire and active life as it is written God dwelleth in a Light which no man can approach unto for the power of the unity of God worketh in the Light and is God and the firy quality in the Light is of the eternal Nature wherein the Eternal love of the unity Perceiveth and loveth it self Below the first and second Principles in the 7. spaces stand seven numbers which signifie the seven properties of the Eternal Nature And under it standeth TINCTUR distributed in the seven spaces which signifieth the Divine Word in the (b) Temperature or equality of the seven properties wherein the divine powers lie in an equall will action and being as the outflown name of God wherein is understood the great Mysteries of Divine power and operation with the characters of the letters on the left side divided into the seven Properties For the word Tinctur is that separating word from whence flow the seven properties T is the Tau or the opening of the Unitie monas the cross of the triple I a ground to the breathing I is the effluence from Tau or the egress of the Unity as the cross-Angle of life N is the effluence of the sounding Threefold spirit C is the cutting of the sound where the I as the effluence of Unitie separateth it self again from Darkness and where the (c) acceptation of the Eternal will breaketh T under the figure 5. is that holy Tau or the opening of Glory in the firy sensibility openeth with * firing love as with Gods Kingdom and signifieth the great strength of the Light-Power V is the true Character of the Holy Spirit with three points the two upward signify the Fire and Light and the third downward signifieth the Unity in love as the meekness R with this the holy fire and light is comprehended in an active natural essence for it signifieth the Kingdom as the Throne and hereby is intimated how the holy Name with the outflown will introduceth it self in Mysterium Magnum as into the Eternal mystery whereout (d) existed the visible world The great Mysteries of the Tinctur or the highest ground of Gods Trinitie T is the triple I the Father I is that begotten I JESUS N is the threefold I in Spirit C signifieth CHRIST T in the fift Space is the Father in Christ U is the Spirit of Christ in the Word which quickneth R is the Royall Throne about which Darknes and Light strive there Satan and Christ stand against one another namely according to the assumption of Satans self-will as an Erronious Spirit and according to the Unity Christ where is understood Love and Anger in one Ground but in a two-fold Revelation Here are understood those that belong to God the other (e) a Lock rather at this place In this Table in the 7. Spaces is the ground of Angels and Soules as that
fashioned it into Creatures There standeth the third Principle where 3. Worlds in one another must be understood as the dark world of Gods wrath the Eternall light world of Divine Love and this visible fading world Numb. 15. Standeth Heaven signifying the (p) parting Mark between the internall and externall world as of the visible and invisible Essence which Heaven standeth in the Essence of the spirituall firie water Numb. 16. Stands Quintessence signifying the spirituall Powers as the Paradise-Ground in the four Elements as well the Astrall breathed forth by internall powers at the beginning of time ●●d is that good in the four Elements wherein the light of Nature shineth as an outbreath'd (q) fulgor of the Eternall light Numb. 17. Standeth four Elements viz. Fire Air Water and Earth as the created world out of the dark and light world which is the framed word spoken out of the Eternall Natures Essentiall power therein did the Devill cast his poyson which after the fall of Man was accursed of God Numb. 18. Stands Earthly Creatures signifying that out of the Quintessence and the four Elements were all Creatures of this visible World created and only from them have their life But the animated Man hath also in him both inward spirituall worlds according to the internall soul of man therefore may Gods love and wrath be manifested in him for wherein the will impresseth and kindleth it self of that Essence it partaketh and the same is manifest in him as is seen in Lucifer Thus have you a brief Intimation of the first Table and consequently of all the Authors writings faithfully imparted out of a good Christian affection to his loving friends and is as an A B C. to beginners II.
