"Regulus of First Woman am I,

From the Antient Well of Blood first come;
By Black Earth blest, and curs’d by Red Clay.
Bitter by parts, I am sweet in sum:
The Flesh that shall the One Fire withstand.
Pour’d out, pour’d out in wonder am I,
As Good Water from the Desert Rock,
To assuage the unknown thirst of Man.

Ars Philtron’s second edition of 2008 is subtitled ‘Edition Codex Vasculum’, and is the definitive edition of this work. Expanded text and imagery not seen in the first edition is present, as is the 27-stanza Elixirs of the Faithful Gods, a poetic cipher of the fluidic media which permeate the Sabbatic Mysterium."
