Between Dispensations and overlapping from past Cycles, even unto the Dawning of the New Day, the Angels that bear forward the sacred Truths are frequently embodied and will be found symbolized in the prevailing worship, or teaching of the age. Thus nothing is wholly lost, for if not preserved in the sacred and secret records of the Sanctuary (which omission, however, rarely occurs), the "word of mouth," or teaching by personal presence, bears forward the Truth and "tradition" takes the place of record.

It has been found impossible within the scope of these pages, to trace ail the ramifications of the "lines of descent" of the Great Dispensations, their Sacred synonyms and representations under the smaller Messianic Cycles, the Sacred Embodiments that, from age to age, have kept alive the hallowed Light of the Primal Truths.

Substituting tradition and inscription for history, it is easy to trace, beginning with Egypt (and possibly African origines), the various important periods; since all that is now included in human history covers one Great Dispensation only.

But the "Land shadowing with wings," was the Mother of all modern knowledge: Mathematics, Chemistry (Alchemy), Language.

The symbols of the "Unknown" God: the Immaterial, Infinite Essence, Intelligence, are there found: The Soul - the immortal part of man - symbolized by but never mistaken for the Winged Sphere.

The divinities or Angels worshipped in later days, and upheld or approved by the "Dynasties," were, like all other seeming retrogressions, the decadence or depression between Dispensations. 411
