Δ Note, As Michael and Uriel, at the begynning of these revealed mysteries,

Were present, and gave Authority to Carmara, to order the whole

Heptarosicall Revelation; so, at the Conclusion, they appeared agayn

and Raphael with them; and Michael ^ concluded the second boke (of this particular

Revelation Heptarchicall,) with these word[es] following





[M]ichael: Novb. 19.

Mercifull is our God, and Glorious is his Name: Which Chuseth

his Creatures, according to his owne secret Judgeme[n]t. This Art

is the first part of a Threefold Art, Joyning Man, (with the

knowledg of 1. the World, 2. the Government of his Creatures, and

3. the Sight of his Maiestie) unto him: (ô I say unto him,) which

is Strength, Medicine, and Mercy to those that feare him.

Amen.

Some Notice of peculier formes, and attire, Wherein, the

Kings, Princis and Ministers Heptarchicall appeared,

King CARMARA

This King, (being called first by Uriel,) appeared, as a Man,

very well proportioned: clad in a long purple Robe: and with a

Triple Crowne of Gold on his hed

At his first com[m]ing he had 7 (like men) wayting on him: which after=

warde declared them selves to be the 7 Princis Heptarchicall,

Uriel Delivered unto this king (at his first appearing) a rod or straight

little rownd Staff of Gold: divided into three equall distinctions

whereof, two were dark or blak: and the third bright red. This

rod he kept still in his hand

This king onely, was the ordrer, or disposer, of all the Doctrine,

which I terme Heptarchicall, as first, by calling the 7. Princis

and after that, the 7 kings: and by giving instructions for use

and Practist of the Whole Doctrine Heptarchicall: for the first

purpose, and frute therof to be enioyed, by me: of the two other

there was onely Mention made.

King CARMARA sayd, ECCE Signum operis

There appeared these two letters, eversed and

aversed on a white flag, and a woman standing

by: whose armes did not appere. On the other side

appered the armes of England. The flag old.





Prince HAGONEL

- Note. All the Princis, seemed to be men, and to have red Robes,

but this Prince, his Robe was shorter then the others.

All the Princis, had Cerclet[es], of gold on theyr hed[es] : not crowns

nor Coronet[es]. This Prince held in the palme of his ^ right hand, as

yf it had byn a rownd ring, with a prick in the mydst: hanging

allso over his myddle fingers, which he affirmed to be his seale : and

sayd the name of it, to be Barees: and this it is

All the Princis held up to gither, Heptagonon stellars, (as I terme it) and it seamed

to be of Copper.

called both the first & these) and so mownted up to heven ward.

empty like a blown bladder: The first Six made cursy

the Third to the Second: And they all, and Prince Hagonel

made Cursy, to King CARMARA.

Eche of these uppon the place of theyr Standing, made a Table

and every Table had but one letter. The first of the first

Six did go away, and in his Table appered an O. & so of

the rest: but note that the Third Six cowred down, & was
