1. And the angel that was sent to me, whose name was Uriel, gave me an answer,
2. and said to me, your heart has utterly failed you in regarding this world, and think you to comprehend the way of the Most High?
3. Then said I, Yes my Lord. And he answered me, and said, I am sent to show you three ways, and to set forth three similitudes before you:
4. whereof if you can declare me one, I also will show you the way that you desire to see, and I will teach you wherefore the heart is wicked.
