What is the side of the Mother? Severe Rigor, whereunto are attributed the Lords of Lamentation and Wailing.
From the third Brain the Lords of Lords proceed through those locks arranged in the middle condition (i.e., partly hard and partly soft), and depend (therefrom); and they are called the Luminous and the Non-Luminous Countenances.
And concerning these it is written, Prov. iv. 26, “Ponder the path of thy feet.”
And all these are found in those locks of the hair of the Head.
Chapter XIII: Concerning the Forehead of Microprosopus
The forehead of the Skull (of Microprosopus) is the forehead for visiting sinners (otherwise, for rooting out sinners).
And when that forehead is uncovered there are excited the Lords of Judgments against those who are shameless in their deeds.
This forehead hath a rosy redness. But at that time when the forehead of the Ancient One is uncovered over against this forehead, the latter appeareth white as snow.
And that time is called the Time of Grace for all.
