EXPLANATION OF TABLES 61 



a perfect trinity. For if it is not a trinity, it is not a true 

 likeness of God, and Genesis is most emphatic in its repeated 

 reiterations of the fact that all nature is in the likeness of 

 God's Trinity. Therefore I wish the reader to note all com- 

 plete results are the product of three concurrent forces out of 

 which is evolved a new result, that forces not in trinity never 

 become complete in nature. We must therefore seek for a 

 trinity of causes if we desire the truth of any proof of theory. 

 This means that if you reduce a thing to its trinity you have 

 a very sure way of checking its correctness and ascertaining 

 if it is true or false. I may here state that the study of these 

 Tables has enabled me to correct many misconceptions I have 

 hitherto held on the science of evolution and of life by putting 

 them to this test. I therefore think it will be well here to make 

 a review of the trinities which mark each day of the twenty- 

 one days of the three weeks of creation : 



First week is the Epoch of Faith, the trinities of which are : 



i st. Spirit, Wisdom and Action make Power : Age of Gas. 



2nd. Spirit, Love and Action make Chemical Action : Age 

 of Construction. 



3rd. Power, Love of Affinity, and Existence make Matter. 



4th. Action, Construction and Life or Love of Assimila- 

 tion form the creation of plant life. 



5th. Thought, Love and Imagination make Marriage. 



6th. Wisdom, Love and Comprehension make Mind. 



7th. Mind, Life and Action make Will : Creation of man 

 and sin. 



Second week is the Epoch of Hope, the days and trinities of 

 which are : 



8th i st. Mind, Thought and Imagination make Know- 

 ledge : Age of Agriculture. 



9th 2nd. Comprehension, Energy, and Justice make Civi- 

 lisation. 



loth 3rd. Imagination, Love, and Soul make Religion, 

 nth 4th. Mind, Life and Power make Government. 

 1 2th 5th. Knowledge, Study and Comprehension make 



Science. 

 i3th 6th. Understanding, Comprehension and Invention

 (This is as far as the world has now progressed.)
