Sabbath in Ireland (Patrick, Saint; Muirchu maccu Machtheni; White, tr., St. Patrick, his writings and life, 1920)

Text: "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it." Exodus 20:8-11

Quote:

   Her parents, having taken advice given to them by God, heard of Patrick as a man who was visited by the everlasting God every seventh day; and they sought the Scottic country with their daughter, looking for Patrick ; and they found him after seeking for him with much toil. [...]

The open or incomplete pentagram (Goethe; Taylor, tr., Faust: a Tragedy, 1889)

Text: none Quote: MEPHISTOPHELES. Well, we'll consider: thou canst gather My views, when next I venture in. Might I, perhaps, depart at present? FAUST. Why thou shouldst ask, I don't perceive. Though our acquaintance is so recent, For further visits thou hast leave. The window's here, the door is yonder; A chimney, also, you behold. MEPHISTOPHELES. I must confess that forth I may not wander, My steps by one slight obstacle controlled,--- The wizard's-foot, that on your threshold made is. FAUST. The pentagram prohibits thee? Why, tell me now, thou Son of Hades, If that prevents, how cam'st thou in to me? Could such a spirit be so cheated? MEPHISTOPHELES. Inspect the thing: the drawing's not completed. The outer angle, you may see, Is open left---the lines don't fit it.
