The Hieroglyphic Monad

added by addition: Nor can it be applied from the outside to its own Multiplication original: "Multiplicandam"?
Will he not be struck with the greatest wonder that, in the most subtle and general Rule of Substance and Value original: "Rei & Census"; in the "Cossic" algebra of Dee's time, "Res" (Thing) and "Census" (Value/Rank) referred to the unknown variable and its square., where ONE THING original: "Vnivs Rei" is proposed as a kind of Chaos (capable of resolving every Arithmetical Doubt), the Value itself, the worth or Estimation (of the Power original: "Potentiæ" hidden within that THING), is always explained here, in this first examination, by the DENARY number original: "Denario Numero"; the number ten.? And this with the accurate works of Division and Equation (or as that Art The "Art" refers to Algebra or the "Cossic Art." prescribes) mediating first? THE GEOMETER (my King) will begin to hesitate, finding that the Principles of his Art are scarcely fully established (which is most wondrous); when he understands that here, in secret, it is whispered and signaled: that the CIRCULAR is given as entirely Equal to the SQUARE original: "Qvadrato, Circvlare, omnino Æquale"; this refers to the "squaring of the circle," a legendary mathematical problem Dee claims to have solved through his mystical symbol., through the Mystery of this Hieroglyphic MONAD. And that the celebrated LABORS original: "Sudores"; literally "sweats," referring to the intense intellectual effort of the Greek mathematician's proofs. of Archimedes can be compensated here with the most excellent Fruit—
