-GAME OVER- “Isn't it only too well known that ours is a cabalistic Art? That is, to be revealed only orally and overflowing with mysteries? Poor fool! How can you be so naive as to believe that we would teach you openly and clearly the greatest and most important of our secrets? I assure you that whoever tries to explain in the ordinary and literal sense of the words what the [hermetic] philosophers have written will find himself caught in the meanderings of a labyrinth from which he can never escape, because he lacks Ariadne's thread as guide” — Livre d'Artephius in Salmon
