Liber LXV, Cap. IV, v. 7-8
7. As the bezoar-stone that is found in the belly of the cow, so is my lover among lovers.
8. O honey boy! Bring me Thy cool limbs hither! Let us sit awhile in the orchard, until the sun go down! Let us feast on the cool grass! Bring wine, ye slaves, that the cheeks of my boy may flush red. -
Bezoar stone is traditionally a mixture of substances given to cow to ingest for protection (as antidote) from poisons; but these words always bring the image of lapis lazuli to my mind.
The Angel invites the Adept to feast & enjoy, to immerse her whole being in celebration of the Beauty of this Union.
