Book of Fragapatti, Son of Jehovih<\/strong>. Chapter 1, Chapter 2<\/span><\/p>\n

Chapter 1<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

1. In Horub, an etherean world on the borders of the arc of Aza, in the procession of
\nSayutivi, Cnod and Gorce, a region of light, of ten thousand earth years, and one
\nhundred vesperes, where reigned Fragapatti, Orian Chief of Obsod and Goomatchala
\none thousand years; God of Varit, God of Lunitzi and Witchka, and Schleinaka, and
\nDows, thirty thousand years; Surveyor of Gies, roadway and trail of Fetisi, and Mark,
\nseventy thousand years; Prim of Vaga, Tsein, Loo-Gaab and Zaan, forty thousand years.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Fragapatti said: To me Jehovih spake in the Council of Obsod, capital of Horub, where
\nsat my million Gods, our throne itself an arc of light, and there came from the Almighty’s
\nthrone a greater light, all brilliant, and, with it, the Matchless Voice. Jehovih said:
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

3. My Son! My Son! Go to the red star, the earth. She cometh thy way; her coat is red
\nwith mortal blood!
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Fragapatti said: The Father saith: The red star cometh this way; her coat is red with
\nmortal blood!
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

5. To their tables the Gods and Goddesses turned, to mark the time; and now, quickly, the
\nwhisper ran to the million ears: The red star! The earth! Ye recollect, it was the little star
\nwhere Sethantes stood man upright, now agone some sixty thousand years. And Aph
\ncrushed in her walls, and pruned her to the quick.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

6. And then they overhauled the earth’s history, these Gods and Goddesses; measured her
\ncourse to learn just when she would pass; and they found five years and fifty days would
\nbe her dawn of dan, her time to cross the arc of Aza. And as yet she roamed two hundred
\nyears away.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

7. Fragapatti said: That this sudden light hath given such long warning, so, great work
\ncometh anon. Let my swift messengers come; I will speak to them.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

8. Then the marshals ushered in the swift messengers, saluting, before Jehovih’s throne.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

9. Fragapatti said: Autevat, my son, the All Light fell upon me, saying: My Son, go to the
\nred star, the earth; her coat is red with mortal blood! Now, by her time, she standeth more
\nthan two hundred years beyond the boundaries of Horub. For this, I called thee and thy
\nattendants. How long will it take thee to go thither and survey the earth and her heavens,
\nand return hither?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

10. Autevat, well trained in such matters, said: Of the earth’s time, forty days. Fragapatti
\nsaid: What number of attendants wilt thou require for so great a distance? And Autevat
\nsaid: Twenty thousand.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

11. Fragapatti said: Provide thee, then, all thou requirest, and go at once. And if thou shalt
\nfind the inhabitants of the earth suitable for sacred records, commission thou the God or
\nLords to send loo’is to raise up an heir for Jehovih’s kingdom.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

12. Autevat said: Thy will and Jehovih’s be done. And, duly saluting, he and his
\nattendants withdrew, and, coming to Gat-wawa, ordered an arrow-ship of twenty
\nthousand gauge. In two days it was completed; and, during the time, Autevat had chosen
\nhis attendants. And so he departed, swiftly, like a ray of light, Autevat and his attendants,
\nfor the red star, the earth. To see what was the matter, that a God so far away as<\/span>
\nFragapatti was, could feel and know the flow of human blood!
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

13. For such is the all perfection of Jehovih’s Sons and Daughters. Even mortals can sense
\nthings a little way off; but Jehovih’s upraised Gods feel the breath of the stars, and know
\nwhen they are disordered.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Chapter 2<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Fragapatti and the Council were deeply engaged in the Sortiv of an Orian arc, through
\nwhich the phalanx of Inihab and her constellation pass every thousand years; an etherean
\nregion where the star, Unhowitchata, was dissolved, some twenty days agone, and cut
\nloose thirty thousand million bound spirits, wrapped in corporeality, by the chief, Avaia,
\nand his band of etherean Gods, who had drawn largely on the inhabitants of Ful, a garden
\nof Horub, in Fragapatti’s dominions.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

2. And Avaia had quartered the dismembered hosts near Sortiv, where the light of the arc
\nfell sharply on them; to deplete which concourse, taxed the Gods for more help than was
\nat hand. To remedy which, Fragapatti’s hosts were extending the ji’ay’an fields of Uth and
\nlowering the grade suitable to the spirits of darkness rescued from Unhowitchata,
\na prolific world, bringing forth imperfect human souls too abundantly for the quality.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

3. And Inihab was near at hand, to pass the arc of Sortiv, with her hundred stars, many of
\nthem larger than the earth, to seventy of which the inhabitants of Horub would need go as
\nredeeming Gods and Goddesses for the dawn of dan upon them. To apportion all of
\nwhich, Fragapatti and his million Council had work on hand, so that not seriously the
\ncondition of the earth and her heavens weighed upon them.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

4. But in forty days’ time, or in such period as would be forty days on the earth, Autevat
\nand his attendants, twenty thousand, with the arrow-ship of fire, returned from the earth
\nand her heavens, speeding close to Obsod, where the marshals received them, and
\nannounced them to the Council. Fragapatti said: Let Autevat and his attendants approach
\nthe throne.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

5. And Autevat went in, saluting, and stood before the Chief, Fragapatti. Autevat said: In
\nJehovih’s name, and by His power and wisdom, am I here to proclaim of the red star and
\nher heaven: First, then:
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

6. It is three thousand one hundred years since great Osire sowed the seed of mental
\nculture amongst mortals, and it hath grown to be a giant, and a most merciless tyrant. To
\nlearn whereof I speak, even God and his Lords, to honor thee, O Fragapatti, gave me
\nvoice and word, and opened the libraries of their heavens, and accompanied me around
\nabout the earth, to all nations, tribes and wanderers. To me, the God of earth said:
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

7. Greeting to Fragapatti, in the name of the Father! And to thee, His Son! Take thou this
\nrecord to Him, and His Council, in Horub. For I am powerless through my Lords and
\nhosts against such odds.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

8. God said: From the time great Osire ascended to his etherean realm, our heaven yielded
\nample harvests for one thousand five hundred years. And God and Lords succeeded in
\nregular order for every dan put upon the earth.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

9. But then came a change, for the a’ji’an fields pressed close on every side of heaven, and
\nthe souls of angels and mortals turned down to the gross earth. After which time, only
\nsuch as were already within the second resurrection came and strove for the upper worlds.<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>10. These depleted the constant rise, and left our colleges, schools and factories vacant;
\nfor the hosts of es’yans, newborn from the earth, were stubborn in their much earthly
\nlearning, spurning wise counsel and association.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

11. And there were born from the earth into atmospherea, millions and millions of spirits,
\nwho could not believe they were dead, but maintained they were confined in dark
\ndungeons, howling and cursing day and night.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

12. For the seed of corporeal knowledge had taken root in the I’huan race. They
\nhad learned the motions, names and places of the stars, the moon and sun; and
\nfrom these, prophesied the affairs of nations and men. And duly marked out, with maps
\nand charts, the destiny of things, according to the dates of corporeal births and
\nmovements, attributing the highest central cause to the sun and stars in conjunction.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

13. And thus they cast aside all spirit, even Jehovih, reasoning, that if the sun made
\nwinter and summer, and grass to grow and die, so it ruled over animals and men. And so,
\nthe temples built to observe the stars, before which men once fell down and worshipped
\nJehovih, became the places of decrees to horrid deaths of all who taught of or believed in
\nspirit.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

14. And now rose a mighty nation on earth, of the I’huans, and called, Parsi’e, and they
\nignored the decrees of Gods and Lords to build no city larger than two thousand souls;
\nforsooth, declaring the Lords and Gods to be but inspirations from the quickening
\npower of the sun and stars, made dark and personal by the credibility of past ages.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

15. And so, in representation of the solar phalanx, they built Oas, a sun city, which
\nstandeth to this day of a million souls, sworn to make it the central governor over all the
\nearth, and all other places tributary and paying for its glory. And over Oas they made a
\nking, and called him, K<\/span>ING OF THE <\/span>S<\/span>UN<\/span>, <\/span>to be to him and his heirs, successors forever.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

16. And Oas was embellished and adorned above all other places that had been on the
\nearth; the fame of which spread abroad over Jaffeth and Shem and Ham, betwixt which it
\nlieth centrally. Its colleges became famous, and its observatories were of such
\nmagnificence that their roofs were covered with silver and gold. The mirrors and lenses
\nand dark chambers within the towers were so constructed that the stars could be read as
\nwell in the day as at night; and the records of observation covered more than a thousand
\nyears, by men of great learning.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

17. But now, alas, Oas aspires not only to be the central sun in knowledge, but in power
\nand dominion, over the whole earth. And so, from her ample treasures, she sendeth forth
\narmies to conquer and destroy, to gather and plunder, to build still greater her
\nmagnificence.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

18. So Jaffeth and Shem and Ham run red with human blood, whereat, I raised my
\nvoice to high heaven, that Jehovih would send deliverance for the souls of men.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

19. For of the millions slain, whose spirits still lie on the battle-fields in chaos, or madly
\nfighting some unseen horror of hallucination, none can be persuaded to come to holier
\nplaces in heaven; whilst hosts of them rush madly into Oas, to find even their souls
\naccursed by mortals.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

20. God said: So the heaven of the earth hath fallen to the earth, save the I’hins and the
\nfar-off I’huans, whose spirits my Lords gather in and prepare for the after resurrection.
\nBut amongst the Parsi’e nation, none more believe the dead shall rise, nor that spirit is;
\nbut that with the mortal death there is the end, to which the king hath made a decree that<\/span>
\nnever more shall man teach or preach of a heaven for spirits of the dead, nor proclaim a
\nGreat Spirit, a Creator.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

21. Autevat said: In such manner God disclosed the affairs of earth and heaven, now
\ndead-locked in everlasting destruction; which things, in fuller details, I with my
\nattendants, beheld in every land and kingdom. And as we sat in Vibhraj, in the sacred
\ncircle, a light, a single star, appeared before us, even at the throne of God; and from its
\ncenter the book of heaven fell, as if to send broadcast before mortals the plan and will of
\nJehovih, near at hand.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

22. At this, God said: Tell me, Autevat, thou that travelest across the mighty heavens, and
\nart stored with the knowledge of Gods ruling over other worlds, what is the signal of this
\nlight and sacred book? To which I replied: This, O God: The time hath come to earth to
\nprove to mortals the things whereof the Gods and Lords have taught. History shall no
\nlonger be locked up privately with the chosen race, the I’hins; but it shall stand before
\nboth saints and sinners.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

23. Thou shalt prove the resurrection before these stubborn kings, the slaughterers of
\nmen, that they may say, not as the I’hins, we believe the soul immortal, because
\nhanded down from the ancients, but because it hath been demonstrated before our eyes.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

24. God said: How shall this be? To which I replied: Not I, great God, can tell, for that
\ndepartment is not in my keeping. But this much I know: Thou shalt send loo’is into the
\ncity of Oas, and they shall raise up a su’is\u2019 sar’gis of the fourth grade. All else leave thou
\ntill Fragapatti cometh.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

25. God said: To reach the fourth grade, will require five generations, which shall spring
\nfrom the I’hin race commingling with the I’huans. Go, then, O Autevat, to thy etherean
\nhome, before the Council of Obsod, to Jehovih’s throne, and say to great Fragapatti:
\nAn heir to the light of resurrection shall be born ere the dawn of dan of Horub.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

26. Autevat said: On learning these truths, I took my leave, and rose and came swiftly
\nback to thy realm.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

27. Fragapatti said: It is well. In the time of the next dawn of dan on the earth, I
\nwill take a resting spell in which to fulfill Jehovih’s plan on earth and in her heavens.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

28. So, saluting Autevat, who retired, Fragapatti proceeded with his Council in the
\naffairs of other worlds, making a memorandum of the time and place the earth should
\nnear the plains of Horub, in the etherean worlds, some two hundred years yet to come.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
