Une boule dor\u00e9e terminoit cet \u00e9difice le premier rang de colonne \u00e9toit blanc, le second noir, le troisieme verd le dernier etoit d\u2019un rouge brillant, je voulus apr\u00e8s avoir admir\u00e9 cet ouvrage des artistes \u00e9ternels retourner au lieu o\u00f9 etoient l\u2019autel, l\u2019Oiseau et le flambeau, je voulois encore les observer ils \u00e9toient disparus, je les cherchois des yeux quand les portes du palais s\u2019ouvrirent, un vieillard v\u00e9n\u00e9rable en sortit, sa robe etoit semblable \u00e0 la mienne except\u00e9 qu\u2019un soleil dor\u00e9 brilloit sur sa poitrine sa main droite tenoit une branche verte, l\u2019autre soutenoit un encensoir, une chaine de bois etoit attach\u00e9e \u00e0 son col une thiare pointue comme celle de Zoroastre couvroit sa t\u00eate blanchie il s\u2019approcha de moi; le sourire de la bienveillance erroit sur ses levres, Adore Dieu me dit-il en langue Persane, c\u2019est lui qui ta soutenu dans les \u00e9preuves son esprit | I TURNED aside and noticed an immense palace the base of which rested on clouds. Its mass was composed of marble and its form was triangular. Four tiers of columns were raised one above the other. A golden ball topped the edifice. The first tier of columns was white, the second black, the third green and the last one a brilliant red. I intended, after having admired this work of immortal artists, to return to the place of the altar, the bird and the torch; I desired to study them further. They had disappeared and with my eyes I was searching for them when the doors of the palace opened. A venerable old man came forth clad in a robe like mine, except that a golden sun shone on his breast. His right hand held a green branch, the other upheld a censer. A wooden chain was about his neck and a pointed tiara like that of Zoroaster covered his white head. He came toward me, a benevolent smile on his lips. \"Adore God\" said he to me in Persian. \"It is He who sustained thee in thy trials; His spirit was with thee. My son, thou hast let | \n| \u00e9toit avec toi, mon fils,tu as laiss\u00e9 fuir l\u2019occasion tu pouvais \u00e0 l\u2019instant saisir l\u2019oiseau le flambeau, et l\u2019autel tu serois serois devenu \u00e0 la fois Autel, Oiseau et Flambeau.

Je dois avant tout te pr\u00e9senter \u00e0 mes fr\u00e8res. Il me prit la main et m\u2019introduisit dans une vaste salle. Des yeux vulgaires ne peuvent concevoir la forme et la richesse des orne-mens qui l\u2019embellissoient trois cent soixante colonnes l\u2019entouraient de toutes parts, au plafond \u00e9toit une croix rouge, blanche, bleue et noire. un anneau d\u2019or la soutenoit. Au centre de la salle \u00e9toit un autel triangulaire compos\u00e9 des quatre \u00e9lemens sur ses trois points \u00e9taient pos\u00e9s l\u2019oiseau, l\u2019autel et le flambeau. Ils ont chang\u00e9 de nom me dit mon guide, ici on nomme l\u2019oiseau l\u2019autel et le flambeau la salle est appell\u00e9e l\u2019autel triangulaire | slip by the opportunity. Thou couldst have seized instantly the bird, the torch and the altar Thou wouldst have become altar, bird and torch at one and the same time. Now, in order to arrive at the most secret place of the Palace of sublime sciences, it will be necessary for thee to pass through all by-ways. Come . . . I must first of all present thee to my brothers.\" He took me by the hand and led me into a vast hall. The eyes of the vulgar cannot conceive the form and richness of the ornaments which embellished it. Three hundred and sixty columns enclosed it on all sides. Suspended from a golden ring in the ceiling was a cross of red, white, blue and black. In the center of the hall was a triangular altar composed of the four elements; on its three points were placed the bird, the altar and the torch. \"Their names are now changed,\" said my guide. Here the bird is called the altar and the torch The hall is called and the triangular altar | \n| Autour de l\u2019autel etaient plac\u00e9s quatre-vingt-un Thr\u00f4nes; on montait \u00e0 chacun par neuf marches de hauteur in\u00e9gale; des housses rouges les couvraient. Pendant que j\u2019examinois les thr\u00f4nes, le son d\u2019une trompette se fit entendre: a ce bruit les portes de la salle tournerent sur leurs gonds pour laisser passer soix an t ed i xn e u f personnes, toutes vetues comme mon conducteur. Elles s\u2019approcherent lentement et s\u2019assirent sur les thr\u00f4nes, mon guide se tint de bout aupr\u00e8s de moi. Un viellard distingu\u00e9 de ses fr\u00e8res par un manteau de pourpre dont les bords etaient charg\u00e9e de caracteres en broderies, se leva et mon guide prenant la parole en langue sacr\u00e9e Voila dit-il un de nos enfans que Dieu veut rendre aussi grand que ses peres.

While I was examining the thrones, a trumpet sounded whereupon the doors of the hall swung on theirhinges to let pass seventy-nine persons, all attired like my guide. Slowly they came near and seated themselves on the thrones while my guide stood beside me. An old man, distinguished from his brothers by a purple mantle the hem of which was covered with embroidered characters, arose, and my guide, addressing them in the sacred tongue, said: \"Behold one of our children whom it is the will of God to make as great as his fathers.\" \"May the will of the Lord be done,\" responded the old man, and turning to me he added: \"My son, the time of thy physical trials is now ended . . . There remain long journeys for thee to undertake. Henceforth thy name shall be Before thou visit this edifice, each of my eight brothers and myself will present thee with a gift.\" He walked up to me and with the kiss of peace gave me a cube of grey earth called the second gave me three cylinders of black stone called | \n| le troisi\u00e8me un mor\u00e7eau de cristal arrondi, on l\u2019appelle le quatrieme une aigrette de plumes bleues nomm\u00e9e le cinquieme y joignit un vase d\u2019argent, qui porte le nom de le sixieme une grappe de raisin connue parmi les sages sous le nom de le septi\u00e8me me presenta une figure d\u2019oiseau semblable pour la forme \u00e0 mais il n\u2019avoit pas ses brillantes couleurs, il \u00e9toit d\u2019argent, il porte le m\u00eame nom me dit-il, c\u2019est \u00e0 toi a lui donner les m\u00eames vertus. le huiti\u00e8me me donna un petit autel ressemblant aussi \u00e0 l\u2019autel enfin mon conducteur me mit dans main un flambeau compos\u00e9 comme de particules brillantes mais il etoit eteint. c\u2019est \u00e0 toi ajoutatil comme ceux qui l\u2019avoient pr\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 \u00e0 lui donner les m\u00eames vertus, r\u00e9fl\u00e9chis sur ces dons, me dit ensuite le chef des sages tous tendent \u00e9galement \u00e0 la perfection, mais nul n\u2019est parfait par lui m\u00eame, c\u2019est de leur m\u00e9lange que doit sortir l\u2019ouvrage divin.

It is from their admixture that the divine product must come. Know also that all of them are null if thou employ them not in the order in which thou hast received them.

Guard carefully the gifts thou hast received and set out upon thy journeys after thou hast drunk from the cup of life.\" Hereupon he handed me in a crystal cup a shining liquor of saffron hue; its taste was delicious and it emitted an exquisite aroma. I was about to hand the cup back to him after moistening my lips in the liquor, when the old man said: \"Drink it all; it will be thy only nourishment during thy journeys.\" I obeyed and felt a divine fire course through all the fibers of my body. I was stronger, braver; even my intellectual powers seemed doubled. I hastened to give the greeting of the wise men to the august assembly I was about to leave, and at my guide\u2019s command I entered a long gallery on my right hand. |","title":"Most Holy Trinosophia: Part Three: Parallel French and En...","type":"page"}
