Chapter whereby air is given in the Netherworld.

I am strong as a lion, the egg in the Great Cackler, and I watch over that great egg which God hath parted from the earth; my life is the life thereof, and the same is true of my advance in life and of my breathing of the air.

I am he who keepeth opposition in equipoise as his egg circleth round. For me dawneth the moment of the most mighty one.

O ye angels who are pleasant through the alternate successions of the earth, who preside over sustenance and who live in the Blue, do ye keep watch over him who abideth in his nest; the infant who cometh forth towards you.
