The Book

In the name of the Father
Son and Holy Ghost

Take this book
and keep it well

It is written proof

That God alone
can no longer be
the sole creator of Man

-

The power
of the one

Unlocks
the mysteries of many

And wisdom is the key

Power
with God's wisdom

Wisdom
with responsibility

-

The light
that shines in your eyes
is the mirror of your soul

Your heart
burns with fire

Stolen from the temple

Where once
the ancient rituals

Were practised
by the priesthood
who kept the secret faith

-

And with each generation
under solemn oath

This book was passed
from hand to hand

From those who know
to those who would know

Now I pass this book to you

-

For herein lies

Clear instruction
of the method

And the stages
of the path

That will lead you
to the temple

With God's blessing

Seeking knowledge
truth and love

-

This book will teach you
whence it came

Through visions
of the sacred flame

And by God

I charge you
by the same

Return it soon
if I am wrong

To Him

To whom
it does belong
