(Click image for full size) The Four, the Three, the Two, the OneHeinrich Khunrath. Amphitheatrum sapientiae aeternae. [Hamburg: s.n., 1595].Surrounding the circular image of the the Four, the Three, the Two, the One is engraved text (cf. notes on the transcription): Decebit nos, igitur, prius pie lotos atque paenitentialiter purgatos, offerre, supplicesque, fide sincera, commendare deificae luci, et tunc, illam sapientiae aeternae, desuper rorantem mannam, supercaelestisque nectaream, et aquae et ignis, pluuiam, sicut stillicidia stillantia super terram, in corda, animas, uires mentesque nostras, hoc est in corpus, spiritum et animam, siue ternarium Microcosmicon renatum, descendentem, praeclusis sensibus seditiosis, mente quieta affectuque omni puro, fixe durantibus, tam immediate quam mediate, iuxta et dormientes ac uigilantes, patienter expectare; et sic, diuinitus, accendi; illustrari; illuminari; sanctificari; yhvh[1] frui; diuina pati; immo, in Deum, ineffabiliter, rapi; et quasi deificari. Laudantes interdum et adorantes (in soliloquiis, praesertim, iisque quotidianis, ut plurimum, matutinis) id pelagus misericordiae immensum, oceanuumque bonitatis omnis infinitum; ex quo, non tantum uerbi mirifici yehoshua Christou crucifixi, et sacrorum yhvh nominum atque uerborum omnium (quae, quoad nos, mansiones sunt sensibiles Diuinitatis, nec non memoracula nos docentia: stimulantia quoque, adiuuantia et eleuantia appetitum animae, mentisque, in nobis, operationem admirandam, in nosmet ipsos et extra nos, uirtuose promouentia) numen designantium et simul exhibentium; uerum etiam mirabilium omnium (facit enim yhvh mirabilia solus) ad nos usque deriuantur radii, destillant fluenta, et diuinissimi emanant riui. O felix terque quaterque felix, in admirationem, meditationem, amorem et perceptionem horum, qui rapitur. Numen, sic, summum, realiter praesens sentiemus; yhvh mirabilem, et in nobis, et in natura, et in scriptura, mirifice loquentem, ueridice audiemus, sufficienter uidebimus, fructuose obseruabimus; angelos bonos, nobis amice assistentes, nos fideliter monentes. yhvh iussu benigno familiariter docentes, atque in uiis nostris tuto ducentes, sine fallacia experiemur. Humi, igitur, procidentibus nobis, hic hymnus, aliique huic non ab similes, Ionico modulamine et accentu, sacris animi concitandi causa, debito, proferendus est: Rei omnis
generatorque opifexque,
Celebris
religio terrigenarum,
Tu, Tu,
