THE TEMPLE OF SOLOMON THE KING
Cause ye the Paths of Wrath to be opened unto me; that I
may advance over the Tree of Life unto the Place of the
River.
I stand upon the Northern Quarter of the Universe of Matter,
and around me glows the Ruddy Flame of Earth.
Before me is the Portal of the Path of the Spirit of the Primal
Flame: Thence gleameth the Red Glory into the World
of Assiah.
Lift up your Heads O ye Gates!
And be ye lifted up, ye Everlasting Doors!
And the King of Glory shall come in.
I am come forth from the Gates of Matter:
I advance over the Path of Primal Flame:
And about me the Glory of the Fire is established.
Vast before me in the distance looms the Portal of the Glory.
I am come before the Gates of the Glory of God:
I cry against them in the Name of Elohim Tzebaoth.
Lift up your Heads, O ye gates, &c.
Behind me is the Portal of the Primal Fire:
Behind me is the Golden Path of Sol:
At my right hand is the Ruddy Light of Mars:
And before me is the Gateway of the Waters of the Primal
Sea.
In the Vast Name of AL the All Enduring
Let me pass through the gate of the Waters of the Primal Sea.
Lift up your Heads, O ye Gates, &c.
