the fift is the true Spirit When the fift property is revealed out of the Fire then she dwelleth in all the rest and changeth them all into her sweet love that no more painfulness nor Enmity is discerned but even as the day changeth the night In the first 4. Properties is that life like the Devills but when the Lights-power as the second Principle is revealed in the property then is it an Angel liveth in divine power holiness as appeareth in the Num. 5. downwards The sixt Property is the Understanding as the Sound where the properties in the Light stand all in an equality then they rejoyce and the power of the five Senses is manifest and all the properties rejoyce in one another and thus the love of the Unity leadeth it self into working willing sensibility finding and (n) celsitude Thus is there a contrary in the Eternal Nature that the Properties existing therein the love is known and that there might be something to be beloved wherein the Eternal Love of Gods Unity may work and God may be praised For if the properties of life be penetrated with the Divine love-flame then they praise the great love of God yield themselves all again into the Unity of God Such rejoycing knowledge could not be revealed in the Unity did not the Eternal will bring it self into painfull moving properties The Seaventh Property is that Essence wherein all the other are essential wherein they all act as the Soul doth in the Body wherein the Natural Essential Eternal Wisdom of God as the Mysterium Magnum is understood out of which the visible World with its Essence and Creatures did arise Thus by this Table is understood the hidden Spiritual world as the Eternal manifestation of God from whence the Angels and Souls of Men received their existence therefore may they turn themselves to evill or good for both lie in their Center This Spiritual world is no other than Gods revealed Word and hath its being from Eternity to Eternity for therein is Heaven and Hell understood III. TABLE The seven Properties of the visible World or external Nature MACROCOSMUS In this Table is signified how the hidden Spiritual Eternal Word as the Mysterium magnum by the motion of Gods Word issued forth and became visible manifest and Material And how the inward Powers through Gods working have comprehended and fashioned themselves how good and bad in every thing is to be understood and yet there was no evill in Mysterium magnum but existed through the sensibility and assumption of self-desire Here also is shewed what in the working issued forth from every property and which have the predominancy according to which every thing is formed and governed 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Ground of Nature Pure Element Para dise Cold Earth Snow Original of Air Fire of Essence Heaven Light of Nature Starrs Water Saturn Mercury the planet Mars Sol Venus soft Jupiter Luna Sal Mercury thunder Sulphur Flesh Sal-niter Oyl Power Body Black Gray Mixt-colours Red Yellow Green and white within Blew White without within Red and Green Melancholy Collerick Sanguin Phl●gmatick G●ossness of S●one Metal Stone Rust Growing Pearls Jewels Menstruum Lead Quicksilver Iron St●el Gold Copper Tinn Silver Bone Wood Herbs Res●n Tincture in the Earth Swe●t Bitter Grass Sour Poyson 〈◊〉 Opening Healing Srengthning Flesh Stopping Smelling Feeling Seeing Tasting Hearing Loathing of Nature Dying Lying Wrath War Richness Noble Reason Own possession Lord Craft Force Justice Faithfull Truth Simplicitie Stealing Deceiving Losing Finding Earthly Love being friendly Lightminded Obstinate Sad Confounded Senses Careless Constant Pure Jo●full Ignorant Earthly Beastly Evill H●●venly Modest Sensible Low ●olfe Fox Dogg Lyon Bird Ape Great Beasts Worms Venemous Wormes Evill Beasts Good Beasts Flying Beasts Tame Beasts Fish An Explanation of the third Table MACROCOSMUS IN this Table is understood how the hidden spiritual world hath made it self visible and with its own breathing forth hath made it (a) an object where the Eternal Principles are out-flown and the powers therein became co-material For the External Nature is no other than an efflux or object of the Eternal Nature The 4. Elements exist from the first 4 Properties of the Eternal Nature as the Earth and grossness of all Essences of the Dark desire where the other six Properties alwayes became co-material as we may conceive of Metals and Powers good and bad The Air existeth from the motion of the Magnetick Impression The Water from the abruption breaking off of the Impression where Heat and Cold are in Strife the Fire of the spiritual fire The cold is Perceived in the Magnetick sharpness as in the right root to Fire Before the seven Properties above the Table standeth Ground of Nature distributed in the three first Forms And in the fourth and fift Form or propertie is divided the word Pure Element With the word Ground of Nature is understood the root of the 4. Elements as the four causes of Motion and Sensibility By the word Pure Element is understood the Temperature or the equalitie of Nature and the four Elements where the Light also is sensible Moving and Elemental Thus is understood how the Eternal Element as the motion of Divine Power is accuated by the ground of Nature and revealed in the Light where the pure Element is the motion of the inward Spiritual world and at the Creation of the world went forth into a Being and is understood of the fift Essence The word Paradise in the 6. and 7. Properties signifieth the spiritual work in the Lights Essence as a springing up or spiritual growth which at the beginning of the world sprung up through all the 4.

Elements but in the Inward Pure Element only and may not be attain'd but in the New-birth of the inner man and in the material Tincture wherein the Paradisical working is also fully manifest to our understanding This Table sheweth from whence all Essences or Beings in this world did arise and what the Creator is namely that the Creator hath been the divine power-world which the (b) Unity as the Eternal will hath moved which will is God himself But the Separator or Divider was the owt-flown will in the spiritual world in such motion he issued out of himself and made him a subject for his working in which motion one subject issued out of another continually untill the external matter of the Earth through the divine motion was drawn into a Mass or Chaos and this drawing of the Motion standeth thus still all things therefore
