VI See! how the wrath of my rune that I send her, Fire of my fire, is flung flying to end her, Wrapping in ruin that scintillant splendour.

As his hands bear the torch and the horn, the symbols of Fire and Water, so does his form unite the Earth in his hairy and bestial aspect, and the Air in his bat-like wings. The whole would be an evil symbol were it not for the Pentagram of Light above his head which regulates and guides his movements.

Zoroaster, too: “Who first sprang from Mind, clothing the one Fire with the other Fire, binding them together, that he might mingle the fountainous craters, while preserving unsullied the brilliance of His own Fire.” “Containing all things in the one summit of his Hyparxis, He Himself subsists wholly beyond.” It is almost impossible to describe so purely metaphysical a state, which involves clearly enough a contradiction in terms.
