osopus, and formeth another brain.
That is the Light from which are produced those two rivulets which are
associated together, carved out hollows in the One Head, which is called
the depth of the fountain.(816)
Concerning which it is written, Prov. iii. 20, "In DOTH, _Daath_,(817)
Knowledge, the depths are broken up."
And it entereth into the head of Microprosopus, and formeth another brain.
And thenceforth is it extended and goeth into the interior parts of His
body, and filleth all those conclaves and assemblies of His body.
This is that same which is written, Prov. xxiv. 4, "In Daath shall the
secret places be filled."
And those shine from the Light of that supernal concealed brain which
shineth in the Influence, MZL, of the Most Holy Ancient One.
And all things depend mutually from Himself, and mutually are bound
together unto Himself, until He is known, because all things are one, and
HVA, _Hoa_, He, the Ancient One, is all things, neither from Him can
anything whatsoever be separated.
Into three other Lights, which are called the Fathers, do these three
Lights shine, and these fathers shine into the children, and all things

_Atah_, Thou; seeing that He is concealed and not revealed. But HVA,
_Hoa_, He, is He called.
But in that aspect wherein the beginning is found, the name ATHH, _Atah_,
Thou, hath place, and the name AB, _Ab_, Father. For it is written, Isa.
lxiii. 16: "Since _Atah_, Thou, art _Ab_, our Father."
In the teaching of the school of Rav Yeyeva the Elder, the universal rule
is that Microprosopus be called ATHH, _Atah_, Thou; but that the Most Holy
Ancient One, who is concealed, be called HVA, _Hoa_, He; and also with
reason.
Now truly in that place wherein beginning is found, is He thus called,
although He is concealed.
And therefrom is the beginning, and it is called ATHH, Atah, Thou; and He
is the Father of the Fathers.
