sacrifice is described later, and the point made clear.
p13. No other disease was known after the bringing of the Zro
to its ninth stage, all indisposition being instantly cured by a
single dose.
Chapter IV:
p14. No known state of pure Zro is stable. From this it will
be seen how entirely Atlas was in the hands of the servile races.
Fortunately no trouble ever arose; the supply of labour was
always ample.
p15. There was also a settlement in Finland. Its only remains
in historic periods is 'Lapland Witches.'
Chapter V:
p16. There are various theories; one a sort of avatar affair,
another that the Atla is a quintessence of some kind; another
calls 'To Her' the 'Angel of Venus, the force of our aspiration.'
p16. A mere compliment.
p17. Especially monkeys. The results of this experiment were
sent to colonize an island, but escaped, and after many journeys,
reached Japan, where their descendents flourish still.
p19. A partial exception existed for prime numbers, as being
self-generated, and each of these which had been investigated had
its special (and comparatively simple) signification.
Chapter VII:
p25.There was also the marriage of those of the Magicians who
refused all intercourse with the opposite sex, and were therefore
married to the whole sex as such. Here was no ceremony used; but
each had a special mark signifying that he or she was thus
consecrated.
p26. MAR is Atlantean (also Sanscrit) for die. This word
throws light on their conception of death.
p26.Note that no tautologies defile its linguistic wells. "As
I have written" is never changed to 'as I have observed, noted,
described, said, indicated, remarked, pointed out' and so on.
p26. I must revert for a moment to the language. OIK, Greek
OIKOS meant the 'House of the penetrating men.' NOM, Greek NOMOS,
the 'arch of the House of the Women,' i.e. that which roofed them
in or protected them. Hence "the law.'
Chapter VIII:
p29. Needle-sharp daggers of Zro in its seventh stage were
used to write on the rock walls of Atlas.
p30. This matter is not for open discussion. Even at this
distant date it would be dangerous to do so much even as indulge
in speculation.
p32.I write a little, but not much, in advance of the events.
To illustrate the theory here advanced I will ask the reader to
compare the results of the attempts to colonize America by (a)
the whole military power of Spain at her zenith, (b) the handful
of exiles in the 'Mayflower.'
Chapter IX:
p34.The Legend of the Deluge is derived from this event.
