(5) Translation of light, which they call ‘Annecad.’ (6) Collection, which

NOTE BY LILLY.”Those
that take this sober course, shall find the truth in what they enquire
after; but whosoever do otherwise, deceive both themselves and the artist;
for a foolish Querent may cause a wise Respondent to err, which brings a
scandal upon Art amongst inconsiderable people, whereas the Astrologer is
not blameable, but the ignorant silly Querent.”
