The only ultimate or exact Science, born of Absolute Knowledge, is Mathematics.

Science may therefore be defined as Demonstrated Knowledge, i. e., the method and the exact result of demonstration.

Along the pathway of human experiment may be found many, many "failures," so-called, yet each of these apparent failures was a stepping-stone to success, to final attainment; but the Angel of any new announcement in Science is always correct in the first or primal statement, and comes prepared to undergo whatever the ignorance and bigotry of those in authority at the time and place of the announcement may inflict. Since death has no terrors and torture means little pain, the martyrs of the Scientific Bases of Knowledge pass on (return) to their angelic states quite satisfied that the announcement has been made, although one, five, or ten hundred years may be required before the world is ready to utilize the principle announced.

Some of these martyrs have been human Geniuses, culminating in certain lines of experiment or discovery; and it is sometimes possible to trace the lives of the Angels of Science, especially in after ages, by the unfailing nature of the principles announced - and demonstrated by them.

The Master Mathematician has breathed into the Universe the exact vibrations of the Mighty Purpose. This Infinite Geometrist has thus placed the Seal and Signet of Divine Intelligence on all nature.

The challenge is given to human intelligence, the Soul, "Come forth and read Me aright, thou who only art like unto Me."

The "Image of God" is the Intelligence like unto that Infinite; 140 hence, through Mathematics alone can the human mind climb to the wonderful heights of that visible creation, meeting at its uttermost and innermost limit the Limitless, the Boundless, where the Eternal Entity of Soul finds its image is Like Unto the Infinite.

The Soul thus perfected in expression finds in the order and arrangement of the Material Universe the exact answer to the questions that only the Soul can ask. The questions imply the answer. The Angel manifesting this branch of human expression has the completed cycle of expression and therefore knows.

Next to the perception of God and of Soul is the perception of the Methods of the Infinite in Manifesting the Universe.
