Magick in Theory and Practice (Section 4)

Let the Practicus take a piece of Silver and fashion therefrom acup. The height shall be 8 inches, and the diameter 3 inches. Let him by his understanding and ingenium devise a Number to represent the Universe. Let his Philosophus approve thereof. Let the Practicus engrave the same upon his cup with his own hand and instrument. Let it when finished be consecrated as he hath skill to perform, and kept wrapped in silk of azure blue. Let the Philosophus take a rod of copper, of length eight inches and diameter half an inch. Let him fashion about the top a triple flame of gold. Let him by his understanding and ingenium devise a Deed to represent the Universe. Let his Dominus Liminis approve thereof. Let the Philosophus perform the same in such a way that the Baculum may be partaker therein. Let it when finished be consecrated as he hath skill to perform, and kept wrapped in silk of fiery scarlet. Let the Dominus Liminis take pure lead, tin, and quicksilver, with platinum, and, if need be, glass. Let him by his understanding and ingenium devise a Magick Lamp that shall burn without wick or oil, being fed by the Aethyr. This shall he accomplish secretly and apart, without asking the advice or approval of his Adeptus Minor. Let the Dominus Liminis keep it when consecrated in the secret chamber of Art. This then is that which is written: “Being furnished with complete armour and armed, he is similar to the goddess.” And again, “I am armed, I am armed.”
