18. Burn upon their brows, o splendrous serpent.


Bethsheba Comment:
There is notariqon with the Standard Cipher here: b u th b o s s = 600.
The following calculation continues on the next page. Note that when something is upon something else then it should be subtracted. Note also that by biblical convention the serpent is a mnemonic for the letter נ Nun and the value of 50.
Brows - Burn = 80.
80 + o splendrous N = 765.

Burn upon their brows, o splendrous serpent!

The Djeridensis Comment
The Divine Ideas revealed in this Book. AL invoked upon 666 and 667.
The Royal Snake of Wisdom bearing the might and right of Life and Death, the endless energy of Magick, burns on our brows.

Tunisia Diaries
The creative genius which is the quintessence of individual existence is manifested openly by them.

The Old Comment
The serpent is the symbol of divinity and royalty. It is also a symbol of Hadit, invoked upon them.

The New Comment
For the images in this and the next verse see the Stele of Revealing, to which they allude.
The Serpent is the Uraeus, with the powers of Life and Death, wise, ecstatic, immortal; winged and hooded, that he may go as a god swiftly and silently. It refers in this place especially to Hadit.
