On İki Anahtar: Birinci Anahtar ve Boz Kurdun Sırrı

Therefore, if you wish to work through our bodies, take the grey, most ravenous wolf, which by reason of its name is subject to warlike Mars, but by the origin of its birth is the son of old Saturn, who is found in the valleys and mountains of the world, seized by a most bitter hunger; and throw the King's body to him, so that he may have food therefrom; and when he has devoured the King, make a great fire, into which you shall cast the wolf to be utterly consumed, and then the King will be liberated again. And when this has been done three times, the Lion will have overcome the wolf, and will find nothing more in him to be consumed. And thus our body is fit for the beginning of our work. And know that this is the only straight and legitimate way to cleanse our bodies: for the Lion purifies himself with the blood of the wolf, and the Lion takes miraculous delight in the tincture of his blood, insofar as the blood of both of them is joined together by a certain affinity of closeness.
