mystical purpose that the author pronounced [and wrote] the word Mercurius as if spelt with an A, i.e. Marcurius; though selfwise reason would consider it as mere boorish simplicity." The later German eds. have the first Note only. NOTE IT is necessary for the Reader to peruse the book of The Three Principles, and the book of The Threefold Life of Man, also with this; and then he will be able to conceive aright of the ground in this book, Aurora. For since the time of the writing of this book, Aurora, Dayspring or Morning Redness, the lovely bright day hath appeared unto the author. And all that which is too obscure here, is held forth most clearly in them; which is truly a great WONDER, as the Reader who loveth God will find. Although the author indeed had written this book only for himself, according to the gift of God's spirit, but he knew not then the counsel or will of God concerning it. Begun the 27 of January, in the year 1612, on the Friday after the conversion of Paul.
