own will. Yet again is he named Autoloxastos, for he manifested himself with the Glories that were his. Yet again is he termed Invisible, for he is hidden and none can see him. Now [the Robe of Power] gave unto the Propator another Power, that which since the beginning has caused the Light-Spark to appear in this Space, and who is named with names Holy and All-perfecting. Who is Protia, that is to say, the First, and is also called Pantia--she who is found in all--and Pangenia--she who has brought forth all in the world--and Loxogenia--she who has brought Glory to birth--and Loxophania--Manifester of Glory--and Loxokrateia--she who has dominion over Glory--and Arsenogenia--she who brings forth males--and Loia--of which the interpretation is God with us--and Jouel--of which the interpretation is God for ever--she it is who has ordained that these Powers should appear whose name is called Phaneia, of which the translation is Manifestation.

Then he cried out and said, "My children, with whom I travail again until Christ be formed in you"; and again he cried, "Yea, I would set beside a holy virgin an only husband, Christ." But when he had seen the Grace that the Father in secret had given unto him (that is Himself a Propator), he wished to turn the Universe to the Father in secret, for it is His will that the Universe should turn to Him. And when the Mother saw all the grandeurs which had been gi
