An Alchemical PenDragon's Pearl.

"The Light shines in the darkness, 

and the darkness has not understood it."

John 1:5

"Pen, middle Welsh - head, chief, top."

An Alchemical PenDragon's Pearl.

The Lamp of Spirit and Soul.

~

Penning in the tongue of fire burns,

compounding elements into Metals;

and writing in symbolical Blood,

coagulates the Flesh of one WORD.

~

We are Logoi in the Burning Bush,

inside the LOGOS of GOD's FLESH.

The LIGHT shines in Divine Darkness,

Nigredo, Albedo, Rubedo, Citrinitas.

~

A Drop of GOD's BLOOD in each Pen,

Wine of inSpiration for each Mind;

a Wafer of Bread from the PRIEST,

a Portion of the WORD from CHRIST.
