John Dee and the Empire of Angels Quotes

“Biroco cites Trithemius’s own statement in the third book of the Steganographia: “This I did that to men of learning and men deeply engaged in the study of magic, it might, by the Grace of God, be in some degree intelligible, while on the other hand, to the thick-skinned turnip-eater it might for all time remain a hidden secret, and be to their dull intellects a sealed book forever.”28”
