The Rosie Crucian Secrets

Note:
This manuscript was copied from a version which was published through the
Popular Press and was no longer available at the time of our putting together this
draft. The original is a one-off copy in the London museum.
This copy is our first draft and is not complete in that we have as yet only copied
that part of the manuscript which we deem most necessary to preserve for our
‘own purposes and for the future, which is roughly half of the book.
Of those portions which we have not included here some is totally useless, a
larger part is published elsewhere and the rest is considered but an interesting
curiosity with little or no practical value. Nevertheless we do intend completing
the transcription of the entire document at some future date. These bits include
some notes on the Rosicrucian Order, the Lexicon and the actual footnotes.
In order to keep the original work as intact as possible we have made an exact
copy including the varieties of spellings and terms used inconsistently
throughout
The original manuscript is loosely attributed to John Dee, it seems for the only
reason that his name appears in the margins of the original, yet the contents of
some of this work have been attributed in the past to another individual.
It matters little for the work speaks for itself in its practical value.
