But the rulers of the Fate, when an old soul is about to come down through them, then the rulers of that great Fate who [are] in the regions of the head of the %u00e6ons, --which is that region which is called the region of the kingdom of Adamas, and which is that region which is in face of the Virgin of Light, --then the rulers of the region of that head give the old soul a cup of forgetfulness out of the seed of wickedness, filled with all the different desires and all forgetfulness. And straightway, when that soul shall drink out of the cup, it forgetteth all the regionsto which it hath gone, and all the chastisements in which it hath travelled. And that cup of the water of forgetfulness becometh body outside the soul, and it resembleth the soul in all [its] figures and maketh [itself] like it, --which is what is calledthe counterfeiting spirit.7.\rulers and out of the tears of their eyes, or far rather out of the breath of their mouths, --in a word, if it is one of the new souls or one of such souls, if it is one out of the sweat, then the five great rulers of the great Fate take up the sweat of all the rulers of their %u00e6ons, knead it together withal, portion it and make it into a soul.
