    **21. An end to the letters of the words! An end to the sevenfold speech.
    22. Resolve me the wonder of it all into the figure of a gaunt swift camel striding over the sand.
    23. Lonely is he, and abominable; yet hath he gained the crown.
    24. Oh rejoice! rejoice!
    25. My God! Oh my God! I am but a speck in the star-dust of ages; I am the Master of the Secret of Things.
    26. I am the Revealer and the Preparer. Mine is the Sword — and the Mitre and the Wingèd Wand!
    27. I am the Initiator and the Destroyer. Mine is the Globe — and the Bennu Bird and the Lotus of Isis my daughter!
    28. I am the One beyond these all; and I bear the symbols of the mighty darkness.

    @Liber VII, Cap. VII said

    "21. An end to the letters of the words! An end to the sevenfold speech."

    The book is ending – the seven chapters almost complete. Also, when speech is done there is an abiding silence.

    @Liber VII, Cap. VII said

    "22. Resolve me the wonder of it all into the figure of a gaunt swift camel striding over the sand.

    1. Lonely is he, and abominable; yet hath he gained the crown."

    Towards this end the camel, Gimel, strides over the sand towards the City of Pyramids on a path straight to the crown – attainment on this plain.

    @Liber VII, Cap. VII said

    "4. Oh rejoice! rejoice!

    1. My God! Oh my God! I am but a speck in the star-dust of ages; I am the Master of the Secret of Things."

    In this loneliness, in this exile – rejoice! We are speaks of dust as our being spreads across the ages. In this realization is Mastery of all things hidden.

    @Liber VII, Cap. VII said

    "26. I am the Revealer and the Preparer. Mine is the Sword — and the Mitre and the Wingèd Wand!

    1. I am the Initiator and the Destroyer. Mine is the Globe — and the Bennu Bird and the Lotus of Isis my daughter!
    2. I am the One beyond these all; and I bear the symbols of the mighty darkness."

    The weapon of the Revealer and Preparer is the Sword – discernment and justice. The “Globe” is interesting for the Initiator and Destroyer. The world perhaps as the creator and destroyer?
    The One speaking is beyond these and bears all symbols of darkness. What comes to mind is silence, the silence in the adytum of the heart. That which is eternal lives through us and is of all the things of mystery through all the ages.
