"[The ark] (the symbol of the matrix of Nature and resurrection) as in the Sanctum sanctorum of the pagans, they had the ark made still more realistic in its construction by the two cherubs set up on the coffer or ark of the covenant, facing each other, with their wings spread in such a manner as to form a perfect yoni (as now seen in India). Besides which, this generative symbol had its significance enforced by the four mystic letters of Jehovah's name, namely, ; or meaning Jod (membrum Virile, see Kabala); (the womb); (Vau, a crook or a hook, a nail), and again, meaning also "an opening"; the whole forming the perfect bisexual emblem or symbol or Y (e) H (o) V (a) H, the male and female symbol. "
