The Chymical Wedding of Christian Rosenkreutz, Anno. 1459
A new edition of the translation by Edward Foxworth
"Some body after an unusual manner, touched me on the back; whereupon I was so hugely terrified, that I durst hardly look about me; yet I shewed my self as cheerful as (in the like occurrences) humane frailty would permit; now the same thing still twiching me several times by the coat, I looked back, and behold it was a fair and glorious lady, whose garmets were all skye-colour, and curiously (like heaven) bespangled with golden stars . . . She had also large and beautiful wings, full of eyes throughout, wherewith she could mount aloft, and flye swifter than any eagle."
