The Emerald Tablets of Thoth

Raised I to LIGHT,
the children of KHEM.
Deep 'neath the rocks, 
I buried my spaceship, 
waiting the time when man might be free.

Over the spaceship, 
erected a marker in the form
of a lion yet like unto man. 
There 'neath the image rests yet my spaceship, 
forth to be brought when need shall arise.
Know ye, O man, that far in the future, 
invaders shall come from out of the deep. 
Then awake, ye who have wisdom. 
Bring forth my ship and conquer with ease. 
Deep 'neath the image lies my secret. 
Search and find in the pyramid I built.

Each to the other is the Keystone; 
each the gateway that leads into LIFE. 
Follow the KEY I leave behind me. 
Seek and the doorway to LIFE shall be thine.
Seek thou in my pyramid, 
deep in the passage that ends in a wall.

Use thou the KEY of the SEVEN, 
and open to thee the pathway will fall.
Now unto thee I have given my wisdom. 
Now unto thee I have given my way.

Follow the pathway. 
Solve thou my secrets. 
Unto thee I have shown the way.

THREE holds the key of all hidden magic, 
creator he of the halls of the Dead; 
sending forth power, shrouding with darkness, 
binding the souls of the children of men; 
sending the darkness, binding the soul force; 
director of negative to the children of men.

FOUR is he who looses the power. 
Lord, he, of Life to the children of men.
Light is his body, flame is his countenance; 
freer of souls to the children of men.

FIVE is the master, the Lord of all magic - 
Key to The Word that resounds among men.

SIX is the Lord of Light, the hidden pathway, 
path of the souls of the children of men.

SEVEN is he who is Lord of the vastness, 
master of Space and the key of the Times.

EIGHT is he who orders the progress; 
weighs and balances the journey of men.

NINE is the father, vast he of countenance, 
forming and changing from out of the formless.

Meditate on the symbols I give thee. 
Keys are they, though hidden from men.
Reach ever upward, O Soul of the morning. 
Turn thy thoughts upward to Light and to Life. 
Find in the keys of the numbers I bring thee, 
light on the pathway from life unto life.

Seek ye with wisdom. 
Turn thy thoughts inward. 
Close not thy mind to the flower of Light.

Place in thy body a thought-formed picture. 
Think of the numbers that lead thee to Life.
Clear is the pathway to he who has wisdom. 
Open the door to the Kingdom of Light.

Pour forth thy flame as a Sun of the morning. 
Shut out the darkness and live in the day.
Take thee, O man! As part of thy being, 
the Seven who are but are not as they seem. 
Opened, O man! Have I my wisdom. 
Follow the path in the way I have led.
