Original whereof is this That the Love is a Desire and desireth onely Light and Joy for the Materia is made out of the Desires Property But if the Love-desire shall come to be corporeal in the Impression then it must resign it self to the wrathful Fiat viz. to Mars his Desire in the fire or in the fiery Property for the Saturnine Property taketh all into its might and maketh it Corporeal 39. Therefore the Metal of Venus is so nigh allyed to gold by reason of her own Property from the Liberty but Mars makes it too wrathful and too spreud and because it separates it self out of Mars his fire it retaineth a great part of Mars his Property in it 40. Mars his Metal is Iron for he is the Wrath in Sulphur in which the fire enkindleth and ariseth his Original with the Materia is in the Austereness of the Desire Copper doth sever it self in the Generation out of Iron for it Ariseth from the Will of Venus and they differ as Body and Soul for Mars is the Fire soul of Venus and maketh Venus Corporeal else Venus as to her own Property giveth onely water in the mortification in the Salnitral Flagrat for her fire is onely a pleasant Shine Smile or Love-fire as she is alone devoyd of other mixture and therefore she cannot produce any Corporeal Essence from her own Power and Ability which is hard and tough she is onely the Mother to her childe without a creatural Soul Mars is her Soul and Saturn maketh her Body 41. The spirit of Sol may Tincture Mars and Venus and change them into the highest Metalline Perfection viz. into Gold which cannot so easily be effected in Silver unless it be reduced into the first Maetria where Saturn Mars and Mercury are together in the Sulphur and then it can be done Venus receiveth its toughness from Saturn and its redness from Mars as the fire 42. Now the Desire of Venus is onely Eager and longing after Sol as after her first Mother whence she springeth forth in her Birth in the first Original for the Love cometh forth originally from God and so it is likewise in the extern Birth in the Figure The Desire of Venus goeth into Sol into the Sun and receiveth in its Desire the Property of the Sun and shineth from Sol she hath a very Peculiar Shine and Lustre above all the Planets and Stars which she receiveth from her Mother and in her Mothers Power consists her Joy viz. the Pleasant Twinkling Smiling Aspect which she hath in her she is in her own Property as she is purely alone without the property of the other Planets a real Daughter of the Sun understand in Sulphur where all is enwrapt together therefore she standeth next under the Sun as a childe of the Sun not that the Sun did generate that Star for he is likewise created with her but in the Sulphur without the Creation meerly in the Generation it is so both in the Heavenly and Earthly Being or Principle 43. For God the Father Generateth the Love through his Heart now the Sun by way of similitude betokeneth his Heart for it is a figure in the outward World according to the Eternal Heart of God which giveth strength and vertue to every Life and Essence 44. And understand it aright As All things proceed from the Word and Heart of God which is the Divine Sulphur in the Birth of the holy Trinity and manifest themselves in and through the Proceeded or Egressed Essence which is Gods Wisdom and yet again do eagerly force and press out of the Egress in and towards his Heart and Power and vehemently long after it as Paul saith all Creatures do groan and pant with us to be delivered from Vanity 45. So also doth the outward Essence in the outward Birth of Metals Planets Stars and Creatures Each thing longeth after its Center viz. after its first Mother whence it proceeded viz. after the Sun in Sulphur for it is the Tincture of all Essences Whatsoever the first Desire with the Impression in Saturn maketh Evil in the Wrath of Mars that the Sun turns again into good As the Divine Sun Tinctureth the Anger or Wrath of God so that the wrathful Property of Gods Anger is changed into a Joyfulness so likewise the outward Sun Tinctureth the outward Sulphur viz. Saturn and Mars that there is a pleasant Temperature viz. a growth springing and blooming in all Metals and Creatures therefore the Sun is the Center which Reason will not beleeve understand in the Planetick Orb and in all Vegetables and Animals CHAP. V. Of the Sulphurean Death and how the dead Body is revived and replaced into its first Glory 1. ALl Life and Motion with Understanding Reason and Senses both in Animals and Vegetables consist originally in Sulphur viz. in Natures Desire and in the Lubets Desire of the Liberty 2. In Natures Desire ariseth the Death and Enclosing and in the Desire of the Liberty ariseth the Opening and the Life for the Liberties Desire Tinctureth the Desire of the dark Nature so that the wrathful Mother foregoeth her own Right and freely resigneth to the Liberties Desire and so the Life groweth in Death for there is no Life without Light but if the Light goeth out in the Essence of the Sulphur then it is an Eternal Death which no man can revive except God move himself in the Lubet-desire in the same Death for Death can receive no Life into it unless the first Desire viz. the free Lubets Desire doth manifest it self in the Desire to Nature wherein the Enclosing and Death is generated 3. Therefore when Man dyed in the Sulphur none could have made him alive again unless the Free Lubet viz. the Desire to the Eternal Life did again enter into his Phur viz. into the Birth of the Nature of the humane Property and moved the enclosed Death viz. the Center of Nature and give it self again into the Center viz. into the Soulike Property and into the Souls Essentiality and Corporality and this was so brought to pass 4. We know that the right Sulphur is a generation of all Spirituality and Corporality so far as concerneth its first Original where it is heavenly it is the Generation of the Essence of all Essences For all whatsoever Eternity and Time is in it self hath and is able to effect lieth in this Birth But now as to the Kingdom of this World it is earthly viz. a figure of the Eternal for in it the Time and Creature consist and all whatsoever is visible and invisible 5. Now Man and every Life also as to the Kingdom of this World was created and generated out of the outward Sulphur Man out of the inward and outward Sulphur and the outward Creature onely out of the outward for Man is an Image and likeness of God and the other Creatures are as a Similitude according to the Figuration in the internal Generation in Gods Wisdom viz. in the expressed or
four Elements but to the Eternal Fathers Nature in the walm of the pure Divine Element the life of the outward world dyed 5. Thus the true Humane Life fell forth-with again into that place whence Adam had brought it viz. into Paradise whereupon Christ said to the Thief To day thou shalt be with me in Paradise it fell into Adams death whereby he dyed unto Paradise and sprang up in Adams Death as a new creature out of the old like as the branch springeth from the Corn and this it did from the might and power of the Speaking Word which of grace was entered with living essentiality into the disappeared Heavenly Essentiality of man and had freely given it self into the Centre of the Soul-like nature and also into the wrath of the Anger and Death in the Flesh and changed the Anger into Love and tinctured the corrupt blood in the Anger with the Love 6. The Divine Tincture Tinctured the Humane the Divine Sun entered into the Humane the Divine Sun entred into Adams night viz. into Adams sleep Gods Sun with the Name Jesus entred with Adams Soul and Humanity in Christs person into death understand into Adams sleep 7. When Christ dyed then Adam dyed also to his Self-hood in Christs death the Name Jesus was in Christ the Serpent-stroyer in Adams Humanity Christ entered into the Image of the first Adam so that the first Adam in the Humanity of Christ did become the same Christ and Serpent-stroyer indeed not in the same Creature but in the same Souls and Bodies property 8. The first Adam fell into Sleep viz. into the impotence of the Divine World and dyed in the death of Death the second Adam entered into the death of Death and took the death of Death captive in Himself viz. in the Humanity of Adam He was a death to Death and brought forth the Life out of Death into the Eternal Liberty He arose in the Divine Omnipotence in the Essence of the first Adam Gods Spirit in the Speaking Eternal Word brought forth Adam out of death in Christs Humanity Adam did arise in Christs Humanity and all the Children of Adam which are partakers of Christs Kingdom do arise in Christ all in Christs Flesh and Blood Soul and Spirit but every one in his Creature which he hath had here and mortified in Christs death 9. Every one is a particular twig but there is only one Tree which is Christ in Adam and Adam in Christ only One not two only one Christ in all Christians so that I may say If I be dead in Christ unto the World I am the same Christ viz. a branch on the same Tree 10. But seeing that I in the outward man do yet live in my Self-hood therefore I must also dye with the outward man in Christs death and arise and live in him Now therefore I live with the Will of Faith in the mind in Christ and am a Christian in the Will of the Mind in the desire of Faith and receive Christ with his Humanity into my Will and cast my Will into his death and thus my inward man is also dead in Christs death and liveth no longer to Self-hood but I am resigned in him and lie buried in his death but being He is arisen in Gods Will I also live in His Resurrection in Him but my Earthliness in its Selfness liveth to the Earthly World until it also dyeth quite to Self-hood and entereth into the Resignation and Putrifaction and then Christ will awaken it through my inward man which now liveth in Him 11. Like as he is arisen from the Dead even so shall I who shall dye to the Earthliness in Him viz. in my first Father Adam in the Name Jesus as a Christian in Christ my twig withered in Sin on the Tree shall obtain strength and sap in the Name Jesus to life I shall and must spring forth afresh with my Humanity in Him as in my Stem who is become a Heart and Power in my Father Adam and bring forth fruit to the praise of God 12. My Will-spirit which now is in Christs Humanity and liveth in Christs Spirit that shall in Christs power give Sap to the dry tree that it shall again arise at the last day in the sound of the Trumpet of the Divine Breath in Christs voyce which also is my voyce in his Breath and spring afresh in the Tree Christ viz. in Paradise the Paradise shall be in me all whatsoever God hath and is shall appear in me as a Form and Image of the Divine Worlds being all colours powers and vertues of his Eternal Wisdom shall be manifest in me and on me as on his likeness I shall be the manifestation of the Spiritual Divine World and an instrument of Gods Spirit wherein he maketh melody with Himself with this Voyce which I my self am as with his Signature I shall be his Instrument and Organ of his expressed Word and voyce and not only I but all my fellow-members in the glorious Tuned Instrument of God we are all strings in his Joyful Consort the spirit of his mouth doth strike the tune and note on our strings 13. And therefore God became Man that he might again repair his glorious Instrument which he has made for his praise which perished as to him and would not sound according to the desire of his joy and Love and did introduce again the true Love-sound into the strings yea he hath introduced the voyce which soundeth in his presence again into us viz. into his Instrument he is become that I am and hath made me that which he is so that I may say that I am in my Resignation in him his Trumpet and the sound of his Instrument and Divine voyce at which now I do rejoyce in all my fellow-strings and voyces which with me are tuned and set as an Eternal work unto the praise and glory of God 14. Thus know ye now my Fellow-voyces in the praise of God that I sound with my string played upon in the Spirit upon and in your Note and thus sing I unto you that whatsoever Jesus hath done through the Christ viz. through his and my Humanity the same he doth yet to day in me and in all my fellow-members he dyed to my Self-hood in his death and I also dye to my self-hood in his death He is given up to his Resignation in God his Father and God his Father hath araised him up with the spirit of his mouth in him and set him forth for the Royal Image according to the holy Trinity through and with whom God will judg all things in the place of this World 15. Thus God also hath awakened in him my Spirit and Soul through his Spirit in the great Name Jesus in Christ so that I in my Resignation in him need not to dye for he dyed in me and for me his death in that he is arisen from death is become my Eternal life so that now I live in his
turneth round viz. the Desire for this World is round so also the Birth when as the Liberty hath given its highest Lubet as a golden Hunger unto Saturn and placed Mercury for Work-master then it betaketh it self into it self into its Defire according to the property of Meekness for the first Conception to the golden Child is effected according to the property of Joyfulness but this out of goodness and meekness resigneth it self to Luna for it is a pleasant demission by reason of the meekness which Mercury doth apprehend and worketh therein also this Body is Silver and cometh from the first Impression where the yellow and white separate in the Fire viz. the Colours of the Vertue then Luna ariseth out of the yellow and turneth into white by reason of the divine Meekness and because its Original is from Sols Colour therefore it hath a perpetual Hunger after Sol and receiveth the Suns Lustre into it putteth it on and shineth therewith 30. Now as the Superior is so is likewise the Inferior namely Metals therefore Silver is the next degree to Gold and as Gold is generated so is also Silver Venus clothes it which Mercury cannot endure being he is the Master-worker and he gives his garment also but the Silver hath neither the property of Venus nor Mercury for it retaineth the property of its Mother viz. the meekness in the Liberty and is hatched as the Gold by reason of the Sun The Moon hath an Heavenly Property but in reference to its own proper Form from the property of the Desire it is of a very earthly property it is a Cabinet and Keeper of the earthly and heavenly Essence As the outward body of Man which before the fall in Adam was comparable to Silver but when he dyed in the Lubet then the earthly property only lived in him and therefore he continually hungreth after Sols glance and glory he would fain take again his splendor with Luna from the Sun but he getteth only an earthly Lunatical Lustre wherein he acts and exerciseth Pride unless he be born again out of Sols splendor that is out of Gods Power in the Heavenly Mercurius and so he becomes again the golden filver-child in divine Essentiality only covered and clothed this life-time with the Earthly Moon that is with Earthly Flesh. 31. Saturn also is the House of silver he is likewise the Cause of the first Conception but he turneth his Desire onely upon the golden Childe and leaveth the silver its garment and takes it into his stony Earthly Property and lets Mercury hatch it 32. The Desire of the Free Lubet is fixt and stedfast as concerning the Property of the Desire onely which bringeth its Will again from the Body into the Combate in the Senses and maketh Jupiter that is on the Orb upwards under Saturn under the Saturnine Power its metal is Tin and it is the third degree for the Lubet of the Liberty in the Desire proceedeth forth into the Desire of the Austereness and so gives it self into the Fiat 33. We must understand it thus The Lubet of the Liberty goeth forth out of it self as a Plant and maketh one degree after another in order but Mercury maketh the Sphere for he is the Work-master And as the Eternal Birth is in it self in the Heavenly Mercury viz. in the Eternal Word in the Fathers Generation so likewise with the Motion of the Father it came into a Creatural Being and so proceedeth in its Order as may be seen in the Wheel of the Planets for the Order is just so placed as Man is in his Order 34. First there is in him the true golden divine man which is the likeness of God Next there is in him the man of heavenly Essentiality viz. the inward holy body generated from the Fire and Light in the Tincture which is like to the pure Silver if it were not corrupted Thirdly there is in him the Elemental man from the pure Element resembling Jupiter Fourthly the Mercurial which is the growing or Paradisical man Fifthly the Martial from the fire viz. the Soulick man according to the Fathers property Sixthly the Venerine man according to the outward Desire and the waters property Seventhly the Solar according to the Suns property viz. according to the outward World as a Seer and Knower of the wonders of God and yet it is but the one onely man yet is both in the inward and outward World Thus likewise is the similitude or form of the Seven Metals with one property according to the inward World and with another visible palpable property according to the outward World 35. From Jupiter the Sphere turneth round and out of the Severation Mercury proceedeth forth with a broken metal according to his spirits property externally quicksilver and internally he is a Paradisical working he is in his spiritual property the Distinguisher or Articulator of the words voyces and speeches It is written God hath made all things by his Word The heavenly Eternal Mercurlus in his Word which the Father expresseth in the Enkindling of his Light and the Expressed is his Wisdom and the Word is the Worker Framer and Maker of the Formings in the Expressed Wisdom Now what the inward Mercurius doth internally in Gods Power that likewise the outward Mercurius effecteth in the outward Power in the Created Essence He is Gods Instrument wherewith he worketh extrinsecally to death and to life in each thing according to its property he buildeth and breaketh down 36. According to Saturns property he buildeth and according to his own property he distinguisheth and dissipateth the hardness in Saturn viz. the Enclosed and openeth it to life He openeth the Colours and maketh Forms and shapes and carryeth in him an Heavenly and also an Earthly Property in the Earthly he carryeth out of the first Desire to Nature viz. out of Saturn Mars viz. the wrathfulness of the Impression for he is his Soul wherein Mercury liveth he giveth him the fiery Essence and standeth under Jupiter in the order upwards on the Sphere for he carryeth the fire-spirit in Sulphur into all Planets and forms and giveth to each thing its Source and true spirit of life 37. Mars in the first Impression is the great Anguish and causeth the Love-will of the Liberty to separate from him and the Severed is called God and the Anguish or Fire-Source is called Gods Anger viz. the Wrath of the Eternal Nature And as internally Gods Love Severs from Gods Anger that is from the wrathful Property of the Eternal Nature viz. Heaven from Hell God from the Devil so also it is effected in the Birth of the outward Nature 38. Love proceedeth out of the Wrath and is an Humility or Submission Thus likewise it came in the Creation into Order therefore Venus standeth in the Sphere on the line of Mars under the Sun for so is the Separation in Nature and so one proceeds forth from another Its Metal is Copper the
his wrathful Hunger may be changed into a Love and then they sleep together in their own Marriage Bed now the Devil is an Enemy of this Wedlock who soon cometh with a strange Desire and tempteth these married people but dares not lay an hand of violence on them but only afflicts and plagues them with a false strange Desire now if they yeeld their Desire unto his Will and his Desire overcome them then they become Enemies to one another and bring forth a false Child for Christ said An evil Tree bringeth forth evil fruits and a good Tree good fruits 51. Therefore the Artist must beware and keep himself from such Anger and yet must prepare a Cross for this married couple for he is their Foe and Friend that so they both in their Marriage Bed of Love might lift up their Desire to God and so with their Desire Gods Essence may be pregnant in their Desire and then in their Copulation they shall beget such a Child which they understand the Mother viz. the Female shall nourish in their Belly until it be ripe 52. In the mean time let the Mother take heed she bear no Love to any other besides her Consort and also not Imagine after strange things else she will imprint a spot or mark on the Child she must continue simply in one Love till the Child be perfect as to its body which comes to pass in the fourth Moneth yet according as the Parents are of one property even so strife and contrary will arise in the essence in the Child when as the Child is to receive its Souls life 53. But when the Essence is in its wresting Combate the Artist must assist the Soulish viz. the fiery propeity until the Souls-spirit attains its Life even then he appeareth in the Womans Form and Lustre Now supposeth the Artist that he hath the Child that it is born but there belongeth a further time unto it till the Soul grows strong and then it appeareth and shews it self in its red and white Coat 54. But there is yet a wonderful Process behind when the Souls life is born then the new Soul casteth away the Vegetable Life of the Parents which is propagated and inherited to the body from the Parents Vegitta wherein the body of the Child congealed and grew till the time of the Soul and the Life of the four Elements dyeth and the Life in the one Element ariseth the Child is hidden in the dark Death and the Artist supposeth it to be dead but he must have patience till the Childe be born The Peculiar Process in the shaping of the Magical Child 55. The Course of Christ upon the Earth is a real Type how the new Child is nourished in the Mothers Womb after its Conception as is before mentioned and attains a Vegetable Life and groweth up to the time of its right Souls and Spirits Life and how the Child ariseth from the Parents Essence and how in the Enkindling of its Right viz. of its own Life it casts away the Parents Vegitta and Working and how a new plant viz. a new peculiar Operation doth now arise according to the new enkindled Spirits property whereby the Child is more noble then its Parents understand as to its outward Life 56. But perhaps some rude clownish Sophister might meet with this Treatise and draw a strange Understanding from it in that I write of a Soul in the Vegetative Life but let him know that we do not understand the Image of God which was formed into a likeness according to God to be in Metals Stones and Herbs but we understand the Magical Soul how the Eternity viz. the Deity doth imprint and pourtray it self in its likeness according to the Model of its Wisdom in all things and how God filleth all in all we understand the Summum Bonum the Good Treasure which lieth hidden in the outward Worlds Essence as a Paradise 57. When Christ in his childhood grew up in humane and divine Property till he was twelve years old he went with his mother Mary unto the Feast at Jerusalem and went into the Temple among the Scribes asked them and harkened unto them and gave answer unto the Questions of the Teachers but when his Parents returned home supposing him to be among the Company he remained purposely behind among the Doctors and followed not the intent of his Parents but the divine Will until they came back again and sought him and then his Mother said unto him My Son wherefore hast thou dealt so with us Lo thy Father and I have been seeking thee Sorrowing Then he said unto them How is it that you have sought me wist ye not that I must be about my Fathers business And he went home with them and was subject unto them 58. In this Figure we have the Type of the Wills of the inward and outward World how they are in one another and against one another and yet are but one Even as in Christ there were two Kingdoms manifest one wrought unto Gods Will and brake the outward Worlds Will of his Parents in that Christ tarried behind contrary to the will of his Parents at which they were troubled which the divine Will in Christ knew well enough and the other Kingdom viz. of his Parents Will brake the divine Will that he went home with them and was obedient unto then according to their will 59. This Figure sheweth the Magus that he shall find two Wills in his Purpose which he thinks to carry on one will not be obedient and subject unto him viz. the divine Will and yet if his own peculiar external Will shall rightly apply it self thereunto and only seek the dear Child Jesus with Mary with desire and earnest sorrow and not earthly pleasure of the flesh then the divine Will will be obedient to him and go home with him and be used according to his good pleasure 60. Secondly It sheweth him the two-fold Working and Will in all things and if he will be a Magus and according to his Will turn the Will and Essence of the good Property out of the inward into the outward then he must be first capable of the inward viz. of the divine Will else he cannot change the inward Will into the outward as Christ was not obedient to the external Will of his Mother until she sought him with grief and sorrow of Heart and turned her Will into Gods Will and wrestled in his Compassion with Gods Will as Jacob the whole night until the Lord blessed him and God said unto him Thou hast wrestled with God and man and hast overcome or got the Victory 61. Also let the Magus know that he need not go about to implant the right Will to perfection from without into his purpose it is already in all things only he must introduce a divine desirous Will according to the things property into that thing which he taketh in hand which wrestleth with the divine Will as
the Expressed Word must have a Tincturation from the outward expressed Love and Light unless the Will-spirit of the Soul doth wholly re-enter into the inward hidden Man and be again transmuted and then the Cure may be again introduced into the outward Man being the through-shining Love of God in the Light which is exceeding precious 71. But now this Herb is rarely to be found upon the Earth for men do eat only of the forbidden Tree therefore the Poyson of the Serpent doth so spring up in them in the Wrath of the eternal and external Nature so that they must also have an external Cure for their Serpents Poyson in the outward Mercury 72. It is indeed Possible for a man to live without sickness but he must bring the divine Tincturation from the inward Man through the outward which is very difficult to do in the World for the outward Man liveth amongst the thorns of Gods Wrath which gall and sting him on every side and blow up the Wrath of God so that it burneth in the outward Man and then the Tincturation of Gods Love may not continue there it is indeed there but not in the outward enkindled Abominations but it dwelleth in it self like as the Light dwelleth in the Darkness and the Darkness comprehends it not also knoweth nothing thereof but when the Light is manifest in the Darkness then is the Night changed into Day 73. Thus it is likewise with Man of what Light Man liveth of that also cometh his Cure if he liveth in the outward World then the outward Goodness and Love viz. the outward Jupiter and Venus with the Sun must be his Cure or he remaineth in the Angry Mars and in the poysonful Mercury in the earthly Moon captived in the Impression of Saturn viz. in the earthly Sulphur which however is made manifest and awakened in the outward Man by Adam for whose sake the outward Man must dye putrifie and so enter again into the Nothing viz. into the End or as I might better say and signifie it into the beginning of the Creation into the Essence out of which it went and departed with Adam CHAP. X. Of the inward and outward Cure of Man 1. LEt the Lover of God understand us aright We do not go upon an Historical Heathenish Conjecture but only and alone upon the Light of the outward Nature both Suns shine unto us Understand us aright and see how God hath Cured Man when the Poyson of the Serpent and Devil held him imprisoned in Death and how he yet still cureth the poor Soul captivated in Gods Anger the like Process also must the Physician keep in curing the outward body 2. The divine Light and Love was extinguished in Adam because he Imagined into the Serpents property viz. into Evil and Good so that the Poyson of Death began effectually to work in Mercury and the Source of Anger was inflamed in the eternal Mars and the dark Impression of the eternal Natures property took possession of him his body became Earth in the dark Impression in the Poyson of the enkindled Mercury and was an enmity against God he was utterly undone and there was no remedy for him by any Creature neither in Heaven nor in this World the wrathful Death captivated him in Soul and Body 3. Now how did God do to Cure him and Tincture him again did he take a strange thing thereunto No! He took the Likeness and cured him with that what was corrupted in him viz. with the divine Mercury and with the divine Venus and with the divine Jupiter understand in Man was the Expressed Word which I call the Eternal Mercury in Man for it the true ruling acting Life it was inspired or in-spoken into Mans Image which God created out of his Essence into an Image according to God as into a Creatural Image which was the Soul with the Property of all the Three Worlds viz. with the World of Light and Understanding which is God and with the Fire World which is the Eternal Nature of the Father of all Beings and with the Light love-Love-World which is Heavenly Corporality for in the Love-desire is the Essence viz. the Corporality 4. The Desire of Love is Spirit and is the Heart of God viz. the right divine Understanding In the Love-Essence Mercury is Gods Word and in the fiery Nature he is the Wrath of God the Original of all Mobility and Enmity also of Strength and Omnipotence the fiery Property maketh the Light viz. the Liberty desirous so that the Nothing is a Desire and this Desire is the Love of God which Adam did extinguish in him for he Imagined after Evil and God that is after Earthliness the Earthliness came forth into a Being both out of the Wrath and out of the Love-Being and that through Gods Motion that the Wonders of the Abyss and Byss might be made manifest that Good and Evil might be made known and manifest and this Adam being the Image of God should not do for God had created him unto his Image He should have Tinctured the Fire-World and outward World with the Word of Love that so none of them should be manifest in him like as the day holdeth the night avalled in it self 5. But by false Imagination he hath awakened and manifested the dark and poysonful Mercurial Fire-World in him so that his bodily Essence of the dark Impression is fallen unto the evil Part in the poysonful Mercurial Property and the Soul is become manifest in the Eternal Nature in the Fathers Fire-property viz. in the poysonful hateful Mercury according to which God calleth himself an angry zealous God and a consuming fire 6. Now to help and restore this again viz. the Image of God God must take the right Cure and even the same which Man was in his innocency But how did he effect it Behold O Man behold and see open thy Understanding thou art called 7. He introduced the holy Mercury in the Love-flame viz. in the fiery Love with the Desire of the divine Essentiality or after the divine Essentiality which Desire maketh divine Corporality in it self again into the Expressed Word viz. into the Mercurial Fire-Soul understand into the Souls Essence in the Womb of Mary and became again that same Image of God He Tinctured the Poyson viz. the Wrath of the Father of all Essences with the Love-fire He took only even that same Mercury which he had breathed into Adam for an Image and formed into a Creature He took only that same property yet not in the Fires property but in the burning Love He did with the Love introduce again the Light of the Eternal Sun into the humane property that he might Tincture the Wrath of the enkindled Mercury in the humane property and inflame it with Love that the humane Jupiter viz. the divine Understanding might again appear and be manifest 8. Ye Physicians if ye here understand nothing then ye are captivated in the Poyson of
its refreshment in Love then all the seven Forms do manifest themselves in this Property as came to pass in the Process of Christ in his Miracles but as yet they are not perfect in the operation of their Properties manifestation 19. The Universal is not yet there until all seven do give their Will into One and forsake their property in the Wrath and depart from it with their Will and take into them the Loves-property they must take in the Will of the Nothing that their will be a Nothing and then it can subsist in the Wrath of the Fire and there is no further Turba therein for so long as the Desire of the Wrath is in the Form it is adverse and opposite unto the second Form and enflameth the second Form with its wrathful property that is it striketh the Signature of the second and awakeneth it in the Wrath and then the voyce or sound of the second enkindleth the first Forms property in Mercury and so no Form can attain unto any perfection that it might enter into Love 20. Therefore the Artist can effect nothing unless he gives a Meat unto the Forms which they all do desire and love to eat wherein there is no Turba now the Properties cannot eat being their mouth is frozen up in the Impression of Saturn the Artist must first open their mouth and make them alive in their Zeal that all the Forms may be hungry and then if there be Manna they do all eat together thereof and so the precious grain of mustard-seed is sown 21. Now when Mercury doth thus awake from the Death of the Impression of Saturn and gets Manna into the mouth of his property of the poysonful Deaths-Source then ariseth the Flagrat of the Kingdom of Joy for it is as a Light which is enkindled in the Darkness for the Joy or Love springeth up in the midst of the Anger Now if Mercury apprehends the glimpse or aspect of the Love in Mars then the Love dismayeth the Wrath and it is as a Transmutation but it is not fixt and stedfast and as soon as this cometh to pass the Angelical Properties do appear in view and ken The Process in the Temptation 22. Jesus was led by the Spirit into the Wilderness and the Devil came unto him and tempted him When the Soul of Christ did hunger the Devil said unto Jesus Open the Centre in the Stones that is the Impressed Mercury and make thee Bread eat the Substance of the Souls property what wilt thou eat of nothing viz. of the speaking Word Eat of the expressed Word viz. of the property of Good and Evil and then thou art Lord in both this also was Adams bit wherein he did eat Death Then said Christ Jesus Man liveth not by bread alone but by every word which proceedeth from the mouth of God 23. Mark Whence had the Person of Christ the Will that he would not eat with the Souls Hunger of the Bread which could have been made of stones which he could well have performed Or how had it been if the Hunger of the humane Property had after the Unction of Baptism here eaten in the Temptation of the Mercury in the Impression of Death viz. of the Sulphur of the expressed Word in which was the Anger and from whence the Love was fled as it is so in the earthly Property 24. Observe The Will and Desire to eat of the Speaking Word came into the Souls property from the Motion of the Deity when as the same had moved it self in the Soulick Essence shut up in Death in Mary his Mother in her Essence or Seed and introduced the Aspect of the Eye of God in the Love into the dead Souls Essence and had manifested the Love in Death then one Divine Property desired the other and the Desire of the bodily Hunger to eat of Gods Bread or Essence came from the Baptism When the Water of the Body which in the Impression of the Substance was enclosed in Death did taste the Water of eternal Life in the holy Spirit viz. the holy Spirits Corporality or Essentiality in the Baptism then the Incentive of the divine Hunger of the Ardent Desire after Gods Essence did arise in the flesh as a divine Hunger a glimmering or shining Incentive of Divine Property 25. Now the Man Christ must hereupon be tempted in Body and Soul of which he would eat on one part the Expressed Word of Love and Anger was represented before Body and Soul in which the Devil would be Lord and Master and rule therein omnipotently and on the other part the Speaking Word in the Love property was only represented to the Soul and Body 26. Here now began the Combate which Adam should have undergone in Paradise for on one side Gods Love-desire which had manifested it self in the Soul did eagerly attempt the Soulick and bodily property and introduced its Desire into the Souls property that the Soul should eat thereof and give the Body Manna thereof and on the other side the Devil in Gods wrathful property did assault in the Souls property and brought his Imagination into the property of the first Principle viz. into the Centre of the dark World which is the Souls Fire-life 27. Here was the Contest about the Image of God whether it would live in Gods Love or Anger in the Fire or Light for the property of the Soul as to its Fire-life was the Fathers according to the fire-Fire-world and being the Soul in Adam had quenched the Light-world the Light-world was again incorporated with the Name Jesus which came to pass in the Conception of Mary 28. Now it was here tryed in the Temptation of which property man would live whether of the Fathers in the Fire or of the Sons in the Light of Love Here the whole property of Christs Person was Tempted The Devil said as he had also said unto Adam Eat of the Evil and Good Hast thou not Bread then make Bread of Stones why dost thou Hunger so long in thy own Property Then said the Divine Desire Man liveth not of Bread alone but of Every Word of God 29. Thus the property of the fiery Soul resigned it self with its Desire into the Love viz. into the Speaking Words property and the fiery Desire did eat Manna in the Love-desire O ye Philosophers observe it well when this was done the Love transmuted the fiery property into its Love-property here the Father gave the Fire-Soul unto the Son understand the fiery property of the Expressed Mercury to the Speaking Mercury in the Light for Christ also said so afterwards Father the men were thine and thou hast given them me and I give unto them Eternal Life 30. Here Gods Love gave the Eternal Love-Life to the Corrupted Humanity the Love did wholly give it self in unto the Fire-wrath and transmuted the Wrath of the Soul into a Triumphant joyful Love but if the Souls and Bodies property had obeyed the Devil in Gods
Wrath and made Bread of the Enclosed Mercury and eaten thereof then had the Will entered again into its self-hood and could not have been transmuted 31. But being it entered into Resignation into the Speaking Word of God and was willing to be and do what ever that pleased then the Will went from its self-hood though the wrathful Death of Gods Anger viz. from the Expressed Word which the Devil had poysoned with his Imagination quite through the property of the Wrath and sprang forth afresh with a new Love-desire in God here the Will was Paradise viz. a divine Lovebudding in Death 32. Thus now the Love-will being set in opposition to the poysonful Mercury of the Souls property in the Anger of God then came the Devil and said Thou art the King who hast overcome come and shew thy self in thy Miracles and Deeds of Wonder and he brought him upon the Pinacle of the Temple and said Fall down that men may see it for it is written He bath given his Angels charge over thee that they should bear thee up in their hands left thou dosh thy foot against a stone Here the Devil would fain that he should use again the Fires might viz. the Souls self-hood in its own fiery property and depart out of the Resignation into an Arrogation of Self in its own Fire-will as he had done and also Adam when he went with the Desire in his own Might into Evil and Good and would have his eyes open in Evil and Good as Moses writeth thereof that the Serpent did perswade them thereunto 33. Here came the fine Adorned Beast again and tempted the second Adam also for God gave him leave seeing he said the Fires Matrix had drawn him he could not stand here now that should be tryed for he was an Angel also as well as the humane Soul which he had Seduced but the humane property in Body and Soul in the Person of Christ had once cast it self into the Resignation out of its Self-hood into Gods Mercy and stood still in the Resignation viz. in the divine Will and would not cast himself down or do any thing save what God alone did by it and said unto the Devil It is written Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God which is as much as if he had said A Creature of God shall will not do nothing but what God willeth and doth by it there must be no other God besides the only One to Rule and Will the Creature must go and do as the Will-spirit of God doth lead it it must be Gods Instrument wherewith he worketh and doth only what he pleaseth 34. In this proof Adam did not stand for he went from the Resignation into an Arrogation of Self into an own self-will and would try Evil and Good Love and Anger and prove how Evil and Good tasted Here dear man was the trying state before the Tree of Temptation in Paradise and that was fulfilled which the first Adam could not and would not do in divine Obedience in Resignation 35. When the Devil saw that in this also he had no success that the Humanity would not give way to depart out of the Resignation out of Gods Will he carried the Humanity upon an high Mountain and shewed it all the Riches of the World all whatsoever doth live and move in the Expressed word all the Dominions and Might in the outward Nature over which he calleth himself a Prince but hath only the one part in the Wrath of Death in possession and said unto it understand to the humane property If thou fallest down and worshipest me I will give thee all this 36. The Humanity should again depart out of Resignation into a Desire of Propriety and desire to Possess something of its own in arrogation of Self in the Cursed Property Evil and Good this had been a dainty dish and delight unto the Devil then had he remained King and his lyes had been Truth in this Adam also was Corrupted and entred into selfish Propriety and desired worldly Dominion and Covetousness which may be seen in Cain which is the Heart of the poysonful Mercury viz. its Hungers-desire which maketh it self Essence according to the property of its Hunger not Manna but Earth as we may see in the wilde Earth what he hath made in the Enkindling or Motion of the Father in his Fires property in which Inflammation viz. in the poysonful Wrath of the Expressed Mercury the Devil thought to be a Prince and is so in the same property in the wicked and also in the Government of the World in the Wrath but God holdeth him captive with the Water and Light of the third Principle so that he is not Prince in the Dominion of the expressed Word but the Judges Executioner He must look where Turba Magna is enkindled in the Wrath and there he is busie so far as Turba Magna goeth in the Wrath further his Courage is cooled 37. He would give the Humanity of Christ this whole Dominion to rule in and above all in the Essence of all things as a mighty God which notwithstanding he only possesseth in the part of the Turba in the Wrath of God and hath it not in his full Domination He should but set his Desire thereinto and introduce his Will into him and he would bring his Mercury of the Creature into the Greatest Omnipotence that he should be a Lord over Good and Evil and have all things at Command to do therewith as he pleased for so Adam had fooled it 38. His Mercury went with the Desire into the Impression whence Cold and Heat ariseth and Imagined thereinto and so the property of the cold and hot Fire did presently boyl up in the Mercury of the Creature and so also the outward Heat and Cold did soon pierce into the enkindled Mercury of the humane property so that the body now suffereth pain from the Heat and Cold which property before when as it stood in the free Will of God in the Resignation was not manifest and thus Evil and Good did Rule and domineer in Adam 39. For the Centre of Wrath viz. the dark Worlds property was manifest in him in a poysonful Deaths property as the Mercury in Man is yet to this day so poysonful and of a venomous Source whereas indeed he is changed in the vital Light into a Solar property but yet the poyson and property of Death doth hang unto it and it is his Root as we plainly see that so soon as the ready Instrument of his martial fiery Properties Signature or Form is a little struck or played upon that his evil poysonful fiery Property doth come forth and shew it self and inflameth the body that it doth even tremble and shake for the very poyson of Wrath and will ever enter into the Enkindled Poyson Source in him who hath awakened and enkindled the same and assimulate in his malice with the malignant Fomenters malice and wrestle in the poysonful
only in the Impression in the cold Sulphur in the sharpness of the Wrath it turneth to a false desire viz. to a false Love which is contrary to the meeknes for its desire is Saturn and Mars 2. It putteth forth its Sun understand its luster of life in Mars and the warming Light which also receiveth its fiery sharpness in the Impression in Sulphur from Mars bringeth its desire again into the liberty viz. through the dying in the Fire through the anguish It doth wholly and freely give it self forth in the dying of the Fire and forsaketh the property of the wrath 3. And so it becometh a Generall joy and not its own only even like the Sun that giveth forth its shining Lustre Universally the Sun-shine is neither hot nor cold only Mercury in the Spirit of the great World doth make in Mars and Saturns property a heat therein for the Sun doth enkindle their desire whereupon they grow so very hungry eager desirous and operative that even a Fire is found to be in the Light which heat is not of the Lights own property but of the Soul of the great Word which doth so sharpen the pleasant Light in its Splendor that it is unsufferable to the eye 4. And we are highly to consider and know that if another Fire-desire which is not like unto the outward life in Mercury would rule in the Austere wrath of the outward Nature that then it would be an Enmity contrary to the Austere cold bitter and fiery Dominion and Life and that they would exalt or exasperate their wrath eagerly desiring to be rid of it Even as it so came to passe when the Divine Love desire did manifest it self with its great meeknesse to the false cold proud and austere Fire desire of the Saturnalites Martialists and especially of the false Mercurialites It was a great Opposition and Enmity to them that Love should rule in the Death of Poyson and dwell therein this they could not not would not endure for Heaven was come into Hell and would overcome the Hell with Love and take away its might as it is to be seen in the person of Christ he loved them and did them all manner of good and healed their plagues or diseases but in that he was not arisen from their wrathful might and that he said he was descended from above and was Gods Son this was unsavory to the cold hot Fires might even that he should rule with Love over them 5. Even thus it goeth in the Philosophick Work when the wrathful Forms of the Earthliness viz. the outward Saturn Mars and Mercury do see the Heavenly Champion with the Virgins property among them and perceive that he hath far another desire then they then they are angry in themselves for the Love-desire when it glimpseth on the Fire-flagrat doth awaken their Fire-flagrat and then the wrath proceeds forth from the Anxiety into Love where-from ariseth a Deaths-flagrat in the Love but being there can be no death therein the Love condescendeth in the Fire-flagrat and giveth forth or distuseth it self into their desire and leaveth its Essence so that in their desire they reach after its Property in the Deaths-flagrat this is a poyson to Death and a pestilence unto Hell and in this Property Death was deprived of its power in the Humanity For Christ when as he shed his Heavenly blood in the Flagrat of Death and left it in Death the wrath of God was driven to retain the Heavenly Love-essence in it self Even there the Fire-desire in the enkindled Humanity was changed into a Love-desire and out of the Anguish of Death proceeded a Joy and strength of Divine Power 6. But I will hereby give the Wel-wisher fundamentally to understand how it went with Christ and how in like manner it goeth with his Philosophick Work both have wholly one process Christ overcame the wrath of Death in the Humane property and changed the Anger of the Father into Love in the humane property the Philosopher likewise hath even such a Will he willeth to turn the wrathful Earth to Heaven and change the poysonful Mercury into Love therefore observe us here aright we will not here write parabolically but wholly clear as the Sun-shine 7. God would change the Humanity after that it was become Earthly and had awakened the poysonful Mercury in the Love-property which poysonful Mercury had devoured the Love and changed it into it self again in to the Divine Heavenly property and make Heaven of the humane earth of the four Elements only one in One desire and change the wrath of God in the humane property into Love 8. Now his Anger was a might of the Fire and Wrath and was inflamed in man and therefore there must be right Earnestnesse to withstand the same and change it again into Love the Love must enter into the Anger and wholly give it self in unto the Wrath it would not be enough that God should remain in Heaven and only aspect the Humanity with Love it could not be that the Anger and Wrath should thereby yeeld up its might and strength and freely give it self unto the Love as the Fire is not made better by the light it still holds its wrath for all that in it self but when a meek Essence as water doth come into the Fire then the Fire goeth out 9. Even so Heavenly Divine Essentiality understand Heavenly water which the Tincture of the Fire and Light doth change into Blood must enter into the wrathful Fire of God and become the Fires food so that the Fire of God might burn from another Essence for water could not have done it the Fire doth not burn in the Water but the meek oleous property of the Fire and Light in the Essence of Divine meekness in the Love-desire that did effect it 10. The humane Fire-life doth consist in the Blood and therein ruleth the wrath of God now another Blood which was born out of Gods Love-essence must enter into the Angry humane Blood they must go both together into the death of the wrath and the wrath of God must be drowned in the Divine Blood and therefore the outward Humanity in Christ must dye that it might not any more live in the Wraths property but that the Heavenly bloods Mercury viz. the Speaking Word might alone live in the outward Humanity and solely rule in peculiar Divine Power in the outward and inward Humanity that the Self might cease in the Humanity and Gods Spirit might be All in All and the Self only his Instrument whereby he maketh what he pleaseth that I say the Self hood might be solely Gods instrument and wholly in Resignation for God hath not created man to be his own Lord but his servant He will have Angels under obedience and not Devils in their own Fire-might 11. Now when as His Love would give it self into Death and deprive Death of its might then the two Worlds viz. the Fathers fire-Fire-world with
the outward visible World and also the Divine Love-world with the Divine Heavenly essentiality that is with Heavenly Flesh and Blood and also with corrupted flesh and blood were formed into one Person God became man and made man to God the Seed of the Woman viz. of the Heavenly Virginity which disappeared in Adam and also corrupted mans Seed in the Anger viz. Maries Seed were formed into one Person which was Christ and the Seed of the Woman viz. of the Virgin of God understand the Heavenly Essentiality should bruise the head of the Serpent understand the wrath of God in the Corrupted man the head is the might of Gods Anger the Divine man understand the Divine property should change the earthly into it self turn the earth to heaven 12. Now when the Person was born Heaven stood in the earth of man Now the Incarnation could not have done it alone there must be yet after this another Earnestness for so long as Christ walked on the Earth the Humanity which was from Maries property was not almighty but the Humanity from God was omnipotent they were set opposite one against the other in two principles yet not shut up but both manifest in each other the Love against the Anger and the Anger against the Love 13. Here now was the Tryal of the Combate one with another whence also proceeded the Temptation of Christ and when the Divine World overcame then the great Wonders brake forth through the outward Humane World but all this could not accomplish it there must yet be a greater earnestness the Humane Property viz. the expressed Word was yet stirring in the inflamable Anger the Humane Sulphur must be changed into the Heavenly viz. into the Heavenly part and thereupon the Humane Self viz. the expressed Mercury was astonished when upon the Mount of Olives the Heavenly world in the Love did wrestle with the Anger in the Humane world viz. with the Self-hood so that the person of Christ did sweat bloody sweat even there the one was dismayed at the other the Love at the horrible death whereinto it should and must wholly yeeld and give in it self with the Divine Essentiality and be swallowed up by the Anger and the Anger was dismayed at its death in that it must lose its might in the Love 14. Hence the whole Person of Christ said Father if it be possible let this cup pass from me yet not as I will but thy will be done The love-Love-world in Christ said Can it not be but that I must drink down the cup of thy Anger then thy will be done And the Anger said If it be possible let this Cup of Love pass from me that I may revenge my self rage in the wrath of man for his disobedience sake as God said to Moses who stood in the Spirit of Christ as a Type of Christ before God Let me alone that I may devour this disobedient people But the Name Jesus which had incorporated it self in Paradise with the promise of the Womans Seed in the Aim of the Humane and Divine Covenant would not suffer him for the humility of the Name Jesus hath always inter posed against the wrath of the Father against his Fires property that his Fire might not enkindle the half poysonful Mercury in man save only at sometimes when Israel walked wholly in the wrath and disobedience as is to be seen by Corah Dathan and Abiram and by Elias 15. So it was here on the Mount of Olives the Anger would live in the Fires might in man and the Name Jesus put it Self into the Anger and here there was no other remedy but that the Name Jesus in Divine Love and Heavenly essentiality must wholly resign up it self to be devoured by the Anger the Son must be and was obedient to the Angry Father even to the death of the Crosse saith the Scripture 16. The dear Love-humility and meekness did suffer it self to be scorned mocked spit upon and Judged by the Anger that is the Jews must execute the justice of God for by mans self-action sin was committed and by mans self-action Death and Sin must be blotted out Adam had introduced his Will into the poyson of the outward Mercury even so must Christ viz. the Love freely give up its Will also into the same poysonful Mercury Adam did eat of the evil Tree Christ must eat of Gods Anger and as it went inwardly in the Spirit so likewise outwardly in the Flesh and even so also it goeth in the Philosophick work 17. Mercury in the Philosophick work betokeneth the Pharisees he will not endure the Love-child when he seeth it he gives it trembling and anguish and Venus also stands dismayed at the poyson of the angry Mercury they are in one another as if sweat did drop from them as the Artist shall see 18. Mars saith I am the Lord of Fire in the body Saturn is my strength and Mercury is my life I will none of this Love I will devour it in my wrath this betokeneth the Devil in the anger of God and being he cannot do it he raiseth up Saturn viz. the Impression which signifieth the worldly Magistracy and reacheth therewith after Venus and yet cannot get her into him for she is to him a poyson unto Death This Mercury also can much less endure for the Love took away his Dominion as the High Priests thought that Christ would take away their Government because he said that he was Gods Son 19. Thus Mercury is vexed at the child Venus for Venus hath wholly discovered her self and freely given up her self they may do now what they please she will go even into the Dragons mouth he shall only but open his jaws and this Mars in Mercury doth not understand but they take the fair child and shoot their venomous Darts against it and bind it with Saturns Might in their wicked bands as the Artist will see how they surround Venus her colour 20. Mars brings it first unto Mercury being he is the life as before the High Priest who must examine and prove the fair child but he doth hate it he cannot reach into the heart after its Love-will he doth only judg it externally because it is not of his property that it standeth forth with such a form as the Mercury himself and yet hath another Power Vertue and Will 21. But being there is another Mercury which liveth in its Love in the Child Venus therefore he cannot kill it but brings it unto Saturn as the Jews brought Christ from Caiaphas to Pilate who signifieth Saturn who also taketh the Child But seeing that he is a Lord of the Impression viz. of the darkness therefore he careth not at all for the property of the Child but for the Dominion only he seizeth on the Child with the dark Impression and strips it of its fair Venus garment and when Luna with the white splendor of the Sun seeth this then she hideth her self as the Disciples of
he is both the Tincture of the Fire and Light must come into One viz. of the Essence which is Venus and of the Spirit which is Mars in Mercury the Fathers Love and Anger must become one thing and then this one thing is called the Kingdom of joy so long as it is separated there is in the thing only anguish and torment and meer desire but when it burneth in one Will it is a joyful proceeding forth from it self and this Egressive out-going property is called the Holy Ghost viz. the life of the Deiry 44. Therefore know that the Virgins and Young mans blood must be both shed together that the Fire-Lyon might dye which was manifest in the Humane property that the Love of the Virgin might change his wrath in her dear Love-blood into her property and obtain the Soul from the Young man for in Adam the Virgin did disappear for the Soul departed out of its Love-will out of the Resignation into its own and became disobedient unto God 45. Here the Virgin doth again take the Soul into her Self and giveth it her Crown of Pearl as unto a Noble Champion and calleth him in his own Name the white Lyon or Champion O ye children of men observe it I beseech you open the Gates of the World in your heart Open them wide that the King of glory may come in even the great Champion in Battel who hath deprived Death of its might and destroyed the Hell in Gods Anger and made of the World Paradise 46. O ye wise Seekers how doth the Lord open his windows wherefore do ye sleep in the desire of muchness in your covetousness which is multiplyed in the Wrath Do but enter only into the Divine Resignation you may partake of that which the Powers of Heaven are able to afford If you do but forsake your Selfness then the Earth shall become Heaven to you saith the Spirit of Wonders but you shall not obtain it in your wicked wayes and coverous doings 47. And when Jesus through the shedding of his Blood had given the Wrath of God in Man unto the Love that the Father had received the Love in the Humane property into the Wrath then the Kingdom of the Devil in the Wrath and the Kingdom of Love did forthwith part asunder they were divided and this Figure did hang with Christ on the Cross viz. the wicked mocker at the left hand who reviled Jesus and was not capable of his blood-shedding and the other at the right hand who was converted from his sins unto Jesus and said Lord remember me when thou comest into thy Kingdom to whom Jesus answered Verily to day thou shalt be with me in Paradise 48. Thus we are rightly to consider that when the wrath of God is drowned in the blood of Christ so that it changeth its might into Love that even then Paradise is again open for when JESUS had tinctured the Humane Blood which was corrupted in Sin with the Virgins blood in the Love then the Virgin received the Man-hood viz. the Self-hood into her Virgins Love This was the Paradise and an Habitation of God with and in Man where God dwelleth in the Humanity and is All in All in it 49. Thus it falleth out also in the Philosophick Work when Mars and Mercury do dye according to the property of the dark Impression of Saturn then Venus taketh them into her Love-blood and Venus giveth her Love into the poysonful Fire-desire Shee wholly giveth her self in unto the Fire of MARS in MERCURY yea she yeeldeth her self fully to be their own but seeing Mars and Mercury become impotent as to the might of the Fire and poyson in the Love the Love and Anger do thereupon change themselves into one Essence into one desire and here when the Fire viz. the Fire desire doth give in its desire unto the Love then saith the Love To day thou shalt be with me out of thy Fire-anguish in Paradise viz. in joy that is thou shalt be changed in me and here Venus getteth the Soul in the Philosophick work so that Mars and Mercury become her Soul and the strife ceaseth for the Enmity is appeased and quelled and thus the Child subsists in the Fire immovably without any change for Mars doth not at all annoy it and so likewise Mercury and Saturn burrs it not for they are in the Child at the end of Nature where there is no Turba any more 50. Mercury is very pure in Saturn he hath no more poyson whereby to make soil or rust in the Water viz. in the Salt of Saturn and let the Philosopher and Divine also well observe this that in Paradise there is a perfect life without any shadow of change also without any false evill desire and a continual day where the Paradisical man is clear as a transparent glass in whom the Divine Sun shineth through and through as Gold that is throughly bright and pure without any spot or foulness 51. And when Jesus knew that all was finished he seeth his Mother and John his Disciple standing by under the Cross and saith unto his Mother woman lo this is thy Son and to the Disciple Behold thy Mother and forthwith the Disciple took her unto his own home 52. This is an excellent Type how Christ hath forsaken this World viz. the Humane Self-hood and is again gone unto the Father for he saw his Mother according to this World and his Disciple viz. his Unkle according to the outward Humanity from his Mothers side and yet said unto his Mother Woman hehold there is thy Son I am no more thy Son according to my outward Humanity it is changed into Gods Son and is no longer of the World but it liveth to God but seeing thou art to be yet in the World take John who is not yet changed to be thy Guardian and thou John take thy Mother and he presently took her unto himself 53. This is the Type of the Christian Church upon Earth for we the poor Children of Eve are not presently wholly changed according to the outward man but we must also pass into death and putrifie that the wrath also in the flesh may rot and putrifie and the Spirit might rest in the death of Christ until the General Resurrection and Transmutation of the outward man in which the Earth of man shall be transformed into Heaven and the Mirrour or Type of the Wonders shall appear therein 54. Thus he commanded his Disciple to take care of his Mother His Mother is the Christian Church upon Earth wherein the Children of God are begotten according to the Spirit whom he should take care for and guide and lead them untill the number of the Humanity out of the Flesh shall be accomplished and then the Spiritual body shall arise and shall be proved in Christs death in his Entrance into the Anger where he changed the Anger into Love and the Kingdom with the Source of darknesse shall be Separated from it 55.
gave his Humanity Gall and Vineger to drink and when he tasted it he would not drink it 66. Here is again the outward Type shewing how it went inwardly The name Iesus viz. the Love of God which was entered into the Humanity and had espoused it self thereunto did thirst in the Love-desire after the corrupt Humanity and would fain tast the pure water of the Humanity in it self but the wrathful Anger of God which was enkindled in the Humane property did give it self in with the Humane property unto the thirst of the Love desire and when the Love-desire tasted of it it would not drink it but sank down into it as wholly resigned or freely yeelded and did unite and very essentially incline it self into the Anger of God as a full and perfect obedience and fully and freely given over as a peculiar propriety thereinto 67. This was now the Flagrat of the wrath that the Love should so come into it whereupon the Earth trembled and the Rocks clove asunder for so the Death was dismayed at the Life and here the Awakened Wraths property did SeVer it self into the Centre viz. into the First Principle into the Fireâ—root and now from the Centre there proceeded forth the hunger to the New-birth in the Humane property of the hunger unto Death was made an hunger unto Life for the Love tinctured the Anger that the Fireâ—desire to the dark Impression became a desire of Life 68. Understand it here aright God the Father who gave his dear Heart into the Humanity to help mankind did now thirst after the Humanity viz. after his heart or word of Power and the Deity in the Humanity viz. the heart of the Father did thirst after the Father and the Love or the Essence of the Light did thirst after the Fires Essence for the Fires or Souls Essence in Adam was departed out of the Love-essentiality wherein the Paradise did consist into a Selfness and was become disobedient unto God and thereupon the Essence life and being of the Light and Love did dye in its Growing that is it did wither as to the Vegetative life or Heavenly growth blooming and Sense of the Paradissal Source and did awake and arise to the Earthly World 69. Here the Father brought the Soul which was entered into his Wrath and had manifested its self in his Anger again into the Love viz. into the disappeared Paradisical Image and here the dark World was dismayed in Deaths Flagrat at the Fire-Flagrat which arose up in Love in the Death as a joyful Flagrat which Joy-Flagrat entred into the dead Bodies of the Hopers of Israel who did hope upon the Messiah as a sound of the power of God and did awaken them from death 70. This Flagrat rent in twain the Vail in the Temple viz. the Vail of Moses which hung before the clear face of God so that man could not see God and therefore he must serve him with an Offering and Type of this Final Discovery in which God did manifest himself again in the Humanity This Flagrat broke the Type in the Offerings and Sacrifices and manifested the clear face of God and united the Humane Time with Eternity 71. All whatsoever the Jews did outwardly unto Christ the same was a Type of the inward viz. how it went between God and the Humanity viz. between the Eternity and Time the Jews gave Jesus Gall and Vineger in his Thirst both these properties are a Mercury in the Sulphur of Saturn viz. in the Impression this is even the Type and full resemblance of the Souls property as it is in it self alone devoid of the other Love-properties 72. God gave this property of the Soul again into his Love the Death into the Life the disappeared Love-essence which the Word of God had assumed to it self in the Essence and Seed of Mary and quickned to life he gave into the Anger 's property into the Souls essence viz. into the Centre of the Fire and dark World whereupon the Soul-like Fire and dark world became an exceeding Triumphant joyful Paradisical life and here the Champion upbraided Death and Hell viz. the dark World in the Soul and said Death where is thy Sting now in man Hell where is now thy victory in the Wrath of the poyson-Source in the expressed Word or Mercury all is now dead O Death I am to thee a Death Hell I am to thee a Conquerour thou must serve me for the Kingdom of joy Thou shalt be my Servant and Minister to the Kingdom of joy thou shalt enkindle the flames of Love with thy Wrath and be a Cause of the Spring in Paradise 73. Thus we give the Philosopher to understand our sence and deep ground in Nature who desireth to seek and open the disappeared Essence of the Earth which lyeth shut up in Death viz. in the Curse of God the Vail of Moses hangeth also before him and a very right earnestness is requisite for to rend the Vail in twain that he may be able to see the face of Nature otherwise he is not fitted thereunto 74. And as it went in the Humanity of Christ betwixt Gods Love and Anger and both were transformed into One so likewise it is in his Work of Nature the poysonful Mercury in the Sulphur of Mars and Saturn giveth its Lunar Menstruum viz. the greatest poyson of the dark Source into Venus's property when Venus thirsteth after the Fire of Love then Mercury giveth his poyson into the thirst of Venus and Venus's thirst giveth it self wholly unto the poyson as if it dyed it wholly yeeldeth up its desiring life whereupon ariseth the great darkness in the Philosophick Work for the Materia becometh as black as a Raven for Venus hath resigned its life whence the glance or splendor doth arise as it is to be seen by Christ that the Sun lost its light and there was a great darkness contrary to the common Course of Nature 75. For when the inward Sun gave in it self unto the Anger viz. into the darkness of God then the outward Sun which receiveth its power and lustre from the inward as a glass or resemblance of the inward could not shine for its root from whence it shineth was entered into the darkness in the place of this World and would turn the darkness in the Curse of God into light viz. it would make the place of this world again Paradise 76. Thus likewise the Sun of the outward World which is a Figure of the inward all essential Sun must stand still with its Splendor in the darkness from the sixth hour unto the ninth which is even the time of Adams sleep when he entered with the desire into the Centre of the Eternal Nature viz. into the Birth where the Love and Anger do part themselves into two Centres and would prove the cold and hot Fire which took him and did powerfully work in him Here are three hours according to the Ternary and in the Grave three days
property and giveth also a Water-Source understand such a property 32. Now the Flash when it is enkindled by the Liberty and by the cold Fire doth make in its Rising a Cross with the Comprehension of all Properties for here ariseth the Spirit in the Essence and it standeth thus If thou hast here Understanding thou needest ask no more it is Eternity and Time God in Love and Anger moreover Heaven and Hell 33. The lower part which is thus marked is the first Principle and is the Eternal Nature in the Anger viz. the Kingdom of Darkness dwelling in it self and the upper part with this figure is the Salniter the upper Cross above the Circle is the Kingdom of Glory which proceedeth forth in the Flagrat of Joy in the Will of the free Lubet in it self out of the Fire in the Lustre of the Light into the Power of the Liberty and this spiritual Water which also ariseth in the Flagrat of Joy is the Corporality or Essentiality in which the Lustre from the Fire and Light maketh a Tincture viz. a budding and growing and a manifestation of Colours from the Fire and Light 34. And this form of Separation between the living and the dead Essentiality is the fifth Form and is called the Love-desire its Original is from the Liberty which in the Fire hath introduced it self into a Desire viz. out of the Lubet of the Liberty into the fair and fiery Elevation of Joy being a flame of Love which also doth imprint in its Love-desire the Property of that which it hath conceived in the Will of the Eternal Mind which bringeth itself through the Fires-sharpness again into it self viz. into the first Properties which arise in the first Impression viz. from the motion and stirring and the Joyfulness ariseth out of the Anguish for this is Joy that the Will to Nature is delivered and freed from the dark Anguish for else there would be no knowledg what Joy were if there were not a painful Source and in its Love-desire it conceiveth the first Properties in the first Impression which divide themselves in this Desire into five Forms viz. from the Fire-flash into Seeing for the Water of Love reacheth the Lustre of the Tincture wherein the Sight consists and from the Hardness viz. from the Penetration of the Sting in the Hardness into Hearing so that in this same Nothing viz. in the Liberty there is a Sound which the Tincture catcheth and brings it forth in the Water of the Desire and from the Raging Sting into Feeling so that one Property doth feel another for if all Properties were only one there would be no Seeing Hearing or Feeling also no Understanding and from the Assimulation that one property doth arise in the other but with another property cometh the Taste and from the out-going Spirit of the properties in that the Egress of each property entereth into the other ariseth the Smell 35. Now these five Forms do all of them together make in the Love desire viz in the fifth Form the sixth that is the Sound or Voyce as a manifestation of all the Forms in the Spirits property which the fiery Lights-desire doth enclose with the spiritual Water as one onely Essence which is now the fiery Wills own Essence which hath brought it self forth in the Light wherein it worketh and maketh the seventh Form as an Habitation of the sixth whence the Essence and Dominion of this World was Generated and introduced into a Form according to the Right of the Eternal Birth 36. Now understand us aright we do not hereby understand a beginning of the Deity but the manifestation of the Deity the Deity is herein known and manifested in Trinity the Deity is the eternal Liberty without all Nature viz. the eternal Abyss but thus it bringeth it self into Byss for its own Manifestation eternal Wisdom and Deeds of Wonder 37. The eternal Father is manifested in the Fire and the Son in the light of the Fire and the Holy Spirit in the Power of the Life and Motion proceeding from the Fire in the Light of the Kingdom of Joy being the Egressive Power in the Love-flame we speak only by parts of the Universal as a Creature 38. The Deity is wholly every where All in All but he is only called God according to the Light of Love and according to the proceeding Spirit of Joy but according to the dark Impression he is called Gods Anger and the dark World and according to the eternal Fire-spirit he is called a Consuming Fire 39. We give you only to understand the Being of all Beings whose Original in it self is only one eternal Essence but with its own manifestation it cometh into many Beings unto its own Honour and Glory and now we will shew you what the Creatures Life and Dominion is in this All essential Being 40. Now therefore understand us aright what we mean by these three words Sulphur Mercury and Sal In the Eternity all is Spirit but when God moved himself with the eternal Nature wherein his own manifestation doth consist he did produce out of the spiritual Essence a palpable and manifest Essence and introduced it into a Creatural Being according to the eternal Properties which also consists of Spirit and Essence according to the Right or Law of Eternity 41. And now I will speak of the outward Kingdom viz. of the third Principle or Beginning for in this World there is also Light and Darkness in each other as in the Eternity God hath given this World a Sun as a Nature-god of the outward Powers but he ruleth therein as Lord the outward Kingdom is only his prepared Work which he ruleth and maketh with the Assimulate as a Master maketh his work with an Instrument 42. Sulphur is in the outward World viz. in the Mystery of the Great Gods Manifestation the first Mother of the Creatures for it doth arise out of Darkness Fire and Light it is on one part according to the dark Impression astringent bitter and anxious and on the other part towards the Deity as a Similitude of the Deity it is fire light and water which in the Fire doth Sever it self into two Forms viz. according to the Mortification into Water and according to the Life into Oyl in which the true Life of all the Creatures of the outward World doth consist 43. Mercury is the Wheel of Motion in the Sulphur He is on one part according to the dark Impression the stinging Rager and the great Unquietness and severs it self also in the Fire in its Mother viz. in the Sulphur into two Properties viz. into a twofold Water for in the Mortification of the Fire all is turned to Water understand into a living pleasant Water according to the Light which produceth Silver in the Brimstone viz. in the seventh Property of Nature which is the powerful Body and in the Fire its Water is Quick-silver and in the Astringency viz. in the Anguish of
property maketh all evill in the Darkness and in the Light it maketh all things good and in Sum all is wholly one in both Eternal Worlds but Light and Darkness SeVers them so that they stand as an Eternal Enmity opposite one to another to the end that it may be known what is Evil or Good Joy or Sorrow Love or Anger there is only a distinction between the Love-desire of the Light and the Anger desire of the Darkness 19. In the Original of the Eternal Nature in the Fathers property in the great Mystery of all Beings it is wholly One for the same only Fire is even in the Angelical World but in another Source viz. a Love-fire which is a poyson and a Fire of Anger to the Devils and to Hell for the Love-fire is a Death mortification and an Enmity of the Anger-fire it depriveth the Wrath of its Might and this the Wrath wills not and it also cannot be for if there were no Wrath there would be no Fire and also no Light If the Eternal Wrath were not the Eternal Joy also would not be in the Light the Wrath is changed into Joy the wrathful Fires Essence is mortified as to the Darkness in the wrathful Fire and out of the same Dying the Light and Love-fire arise as the Light burneth forth from the Candle and yet in the Candle the Fire and Light are but one thing 20. Thus also the Great Mystery of all Beings is in the Eternity in it self only one Thing but in its Explication and Manifestation it goeth from Eternity to Eternity into two Essences viz. into Evil and Good what is evil unto one thing that is good unto another Hell is evil unto the Angels for they were not created thereunto but it is good to the other Hellish creatures so also Heaven is evil to the Hellish creatures for it is their poyson and death an Eternal Dying and an Eternal Captivity 21. Therefore there is an Eternal enmity and God is only called a God according to the light of his Love He is indeed himself All but according to the Darkness he saith I am an angry Jealous God and a consuming Fire 22. Every Creature must remain in its place wherein it was apprehended in its Creation and formed into an Image and not depart out of that same Harmony or else it becomes an Enemy of the Being of all Beings 23. And thus Hell is even an Enemy of the Devil for he is a strange Guest therein viz. a perjured Fiend cast out of Heaven He will be Lord in that wherein he was not created the whole Creation accuseth him for a false perjured Apostate Spirit which is departed from his Order yea even the Nature in the Wrath is his Enemy albe it he be of the same property yet he is a Stranger and will be Lord though he hath lost his Kingdom and is only an inmate in the Wrath of God he that was too rich is now become too poor he had all when as he stood in Humility and now he hath nothing and is moreover captivated in the Gulf This is his shame that he is a King and yet hath fooled away his Kingdom in Pride the Royal creature remaineth but the Dominion is taken away of a King he is become an Executioner what Gods anger apprehends there he is a Judg viz. an Officer of Gods Anger yet he must do what his Lord and Master will 24. This Reason most ignorantly gain-sayeth and saith God is omnipotent and Omniscient he hath made it Even he hath done with his work as he hath pleased who will contend with the most High Yea dear Reason now thou thinkest thou hitst it right but first prethee Learn the A. B. C. in the great Mystery All whatsoever is arisen out of the Eternal Will viz. out of the Great Eternal Mystery of all Beings as Angels and the Souls of men are that stands in equal weight in Evil and Good in the Free Wil as God himself that Desire which powerfully predominantly works in the Creature and quite overtoppeth the other of that property the Creature is As a Candle purteth forth out of it self a Fire and out of the Fire the Wind which Wind the Fire draweth again into it self and yet giveth it forth again and when this Spirit is gone forth from the Fire and Light then it is free from the Fire and Light what property it again receiveth of that it is the first Mystery wherein the Creature consists is the All-essential Mystery and the other in the forth-going Spirit is its propriety and a self-ful Will Hath not every Angel it s own peculiar Spirit which is progenerated out of its own Mystery which hath its Original out of Eternity Wherefore will this Spirit be a Tempter of God and tempteth the Mystery which forth with captivates it in the Wrath as hapned to Lucifer It hath the drawing to Gods Wrath and to Gods Love in in it wherefore doth not the Spirit which is generated out of both which is the similitude of the Spirit of God continue in its place in Obedience as a Child before the Mother in Humility 25. Thou sayst it cannot it is not so Every Spirit standeth in the place where it was created in equal weight and hath its Free Will it is a Spirit with the All-essential Eternal Spirit and may take unto it self a Lubet in the All-essential Eternal Spirit as it willeth either in Gods Love or Anger whereinto it introduceth its Longing Imagination the Essence and property of that it receiveth in the Great Mystery of all Beings 26. In God the Birth is manifest in Love and Anger wherefore not also in the Creature which is created out of Gods Essence and Will out of his Voyce and Breath into an Image what property or note of the Voyce the Creature awakeneth in it self the same soundeth in and ruleth the Creature Gods Will to the Creature was only One viz. a general Manifestation of the Spirit as each Creature was apprehended in the property of the Eternal Mystery yet Lucifer was apprehended in the good Angelical property which plainly testifieth that he was an Angel in Heaven but his own incorporized Will-spirit forced it self into the wrathful Mother for to awaken the same in it and thereby to be a Lord over every created Being now the Will-spirit is free it is the Eternal Original let it do what it will 27. Therefore we are to know this and it is no otherwise that the Will-spirit which taketh its Original out of Love and Anger out of both Eternal Principles hath given it self in to the Wrath whereby the Wrath hath powerfully got the upper hand and Dominion and put it self out of the Equal Harmony into a dissonancy or discord and so he must be driven into his Likeness this is his fall and so it is also the fall of all evil men 28. Now Self-Reason alledgeth the Scripture where it is written Many are
Impossible to him But unto those that Love Iesus we say and declare that they may very well be searcht out and understood and that it is no impossible thing for in a true Christian dwelleth Christ in whom all the treasures of the hidden wisdom are manifest the same Christian knoweth them only in the Spirit of Christ but not in his own self ful Nature and Ability As we also have clearly expounded and described these questions in a peculiar Book indeed briefly and yet in our other Writings largely and sufficiently enough and so I commend the Reader into the Revelation of Jesus Christ.
