42:7 so I saw my soul ascend again and he showed me the second great
bough, weighed down with the fruit of wisdom and understanding. And I saw
that before you can taste of its bounty, you must be free of all ignorance and
intolerance. Only then can you eat of the fruit and so pass upward unhindered
through the second of the seven gates. And I heard the voice of ignorance call
to me, but I knew him not, and so my soul did thus unchallenged.
