〔When I entered into the cave,I received the tablet zaradi,which was inscribed,from between the bands of Hermes,in which I discovered these word:
Tistrue without lying,certain&mosttrue:
That wch is below is like that wchis above&that wchis above is like ytwch is below todoy emir acles of one onlything。
And asall things have been&arose from one byyemediation of one:soall things have their birth from this onething by a daptation。
The Sun is its father,the moon its mother,the wind hath carried it in itsbelly,the earth its nourse。
The father of all perfection in yewhole world is here。Its forceor power is entire if it beconverted into earth。
Separate thouye earth from yefire,yesub tile from the grosss weetly wth great in doustry。
It ascends from yeearth to yeheaven&againitd esends to yeearth and receives yeforce of things superior&inferior。By this means you shall have yeglory of yewhole world&there by all obscurity shall fly from you。
Its forceis above all force,for it vanquish esevery subtile thing&pene tratese very solid thing。
So was yeworld created。From this are&docomead mirable adaptations where of yeprocess is here in this。
HenceIam called HermesTrismegist,having the three parts of yephilosophy of yewholeworld。
That wchI have sid of yeoperation of yeSunisac complished&ended。〕
