considered as sexpartite, then his globes (Sephiroth) are analogous to the six days of
                   Creation, and the tenth globe, Malchuth, to the Sabbath of rest.

                   (5) The Bride of Microprosophus is Malchuth--the epitome of the Sephiroth, its
                   quaternary constitution being composed of blendings of the four elements. This is the
                   divine Eve that is taken out

                                             A TABLE OF SEPHIROTHIC CORRESPONDENCES.

                                                                               From Fludd's Collectio Operum.

                   The above diagram has been specially translated from the Latin as being of unique value to students of
                   Qabbalism and also as an example of Robert Fludd's unusual ability in assembling tables of
                   correspondences. Robert Fludd ranks among the most eminent Rosicrucians and Freemasons; in fact, he
                   has often been called "the first English Rosicrucian." He has written several valuable documents directly
                   bearing upon the Rosicrucian enigma. It is significant that the most important of his works should be
                   published at the same time as those of Bacon, Shakespeare, and the first Rosicrucian authors.

                                           THE SEPHIROTHIC TREE OF THE LATER QABBALISTS.

                   Having demonstrated that the Qabbalists divided the universe into four worlds, each consisting of ten
                   spheres, it is necessary to consider next how the ten spheres of each world were arranged into what is called
