ll things. From this Influence depend all the superior and inferior hosts. Thirteen fountains of excellent and precious oil depend from this beard of most glorious Influence, and they all flow down into Microprosopus. Say not thou, however, that all do so, but nine of them are found (in Microprosopus) for the purpose of diverting the judgments. And whensoever this Influence hangeth down in equilibrium even unto the heart, all the Holinesses of the Holinesses of Holiness depend from it. In that Influence is extended an expansion of the Supernal Emanation,(813) which is the Head of all Heads, which is not known nor perfected, and which neither superiors nor inferiors have known, because from that Influence all things depend.

For since this Head is the supreme of all the supernals, hence He is only symbolized as a head alone without body, for the purpose of establishing all things. And He Himself is concealed, and hidden, and kept recondite by all things. His conformation is that He is formed forth in that brain, the most hidden of all things, which is expanded and formed forth, and hence proceedeth the superior and inferior CHSD, _Chesed_, Mercy. And the superior Chesed is formed forth and expanded, and all things are comprehended in this concealed brain. For when that White Brilliance is formed forth in that Light, it acteth upon that which acteth upon this brain, and it is en
