Chapter III.

What Bill was commanded to write to certain other senses in the son of plain man, who is now let loose with club in hand, to cast down and destroy their imaginations.

And unto the angel with the sense of smelling, write. These things saith he that hath the seven spirits of God in substance, quantity, quality, relation, time, place and suffering, and which are welded in my seven parts of speech, and he that hath my seven stars that do make up my terse, concise and enthematic syllogism. I know thy works, that thou hast a name, that thou livest and art dead, and said it not until the zeal of my house, thy cerebral, hath eaten thee up.

2. Be watchful and strengthen the things which remain that are ready to die, and cause that word soul amongst men to have its just meaning and its just limit, which truth you held back these fifty years, and thy works were far from perfect.

3. Remember therefore my Logos, and of that which thou hast received and hold fast and repent. If thou shalt not watch I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I shall call thee out to establish my kingdom which is within them.

4. Some have not saturated their brain cells with tropes, I figures, metaphors and the soaring exaggerations and 'spectacular grandeur of the eastern mind, but have meekly and softly measured amongst things as they are, and they are worthy and shall walk with me in white, because of their simple and reasonable belief that my kingdom is and shall be within them.

5. He that overcometh the same shall be clothed in white raiment, and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but he shall be a footprint upon the sand of time, and a beacon for all succeeding generations, and I will confess his name before my Father and before all races of men, and shall raise the tabernacle of David that is fallen and close up the breaches thereof and will at this time restore again the Kingdom to Israel.

6. He that hath an ear let him hear what the spirit saith unto man's seven senses and his word, his new Jerusalem and my new church and there is none, no not one, like it, and he that hath my gospel of the senses and the word shall not walk in darkness but shall have the light of life. For we speak that we do know, and testify that which we have, and we measure no temple but that of woman-born man.

7. And to the angel with the sense of muscle, write. These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, my burning and shining lights, that openeth and no man shutteth, and shutteth and no man openeth, and whose written page 23 remains are treasured and preserved and passed down from age to age to feed my lambs. These are my people and I am their God in truth and in righteousness.

8. I know thy works, and in thy little book I have set before thee an open door which no man can shut, for thou hast a little strength and kept my word and hast not denied my name, and as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the syllogism of man be exalted, and those meditating upon my gift to man, my Southern Cross, my burning syllogism of terse truth shall have eternal life in a world of joy, peace, and happiness.

9. And they shall praise the God of Jacob, drinking in thoughts of the best, and which my lambs absorb in an atmosphere of the best in heredity, in example, in education and in environment. Pillars hewn and chiselled by the care and thought of my meek, patient and peculiar people.

10. And as thou hast received in patience so have I braced thy mind against the hour of temptation, which comes upon all the world to try them that dwell upon the earth.

11. And of thy faith there shall be great acceptance, and one king shall be king to them all, and in my hidden manna there shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into kingdoms any more, for in my common terms they shall see all alike.

12. And to him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall stand there erect, cool and fearless, walking no more after their heated imaginations, their strong delusions and their veritable lies, all which did arise from a dunghill of decretals, and I shall write God's name as Verbum, and in man it shall dwell, and his abstraction shall be the new Jerusalem, a faculty coming down from heaven into their brain cells, and God's name shall be man's meek and truthful expression, and in my pure language thou shalt call me thy God, your Redeemer and Sanctifier, and I will change thy flesh into my word, and ye shall say my disposition, my character, my peculiarity, my in dividuality, my merit, my talent and my courage are as thine, oh my God! 13. He that hath an ear let him hear what the spirit saith unto man's senses, and those on earth now operating and now thinking know my record is true.

14. And unto the angel with the quickening sense of motion, write. These things saith the amen, the faithful and true witness the beginning of the creation of God which is my thinking and my blinking against my psychological entity, and be glad and rejoice for ever in that which I do create, for behold I create Jerusalem a rejoicing and her people a joy, and to the quick I give cerebrals built by mine own hand, and the dead I return to mother earth.

15. I know thy works and thy fear and thy hesitation, would thou wert more courageous in proclaiming my new heaven and my new earth wherein right shall dwell.

16. Because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, shall cause thy quickening spirit to rest not within the sockets of your eyes, and my utterance thou shalt not hide, and they shall say new truths cometh not but by me.

17. Thinking thou art rich and have need of nothing when thou knowest that thou art wretched and miserable, and poor and blind and naked.

18. I counsel thee to fear my word and its rod, and hide thy nakedness and thy shame and the cast in thine eye, all which thou canst neither hide nor heal.

19. And many as I love I rebuke and chasten; be zealous, therefore, and repent and in meekness bear my cross, and all shall be well.

20. Behold I am the God of the living, and they work amidst the glory of my kingdom which is within the dome of thy skull, and if thou wilt but repent and do the first works thy past shalt be forgiven, and I will come into your mind and sup with you and you with me, and will fill thy brain-cells with a great conversance of naught but pure language, bright with adequacy, and the same shall spread amongst the nations righteousness, peace, and joy.

21. To him that overcometh will I grant conscience peace, and virtue pure, and of my hidden manna he shall have great store.

22. He that hath an ear let him hear what is said unto the seven senses in Shiloh, the son of mere man, and we deal in things as they are, which can see and feel and walk, and amongst them I call for an accurate system of nomenclature, and ye shall know well the real character of language, without which no man hath a soul. For indeed it is his right arm and God in man and herein is made plain the vision of Zephaniah, turning to the people a pure language that they may all call upon the name of the Lord to serve him with one consent. They shall indeed be Rhetoricians, and the sword of their mouth shall be an instrument of instruments, clear, precise, accurate, well defined, technical, definite and absolutely conclusive.
