Theos-Talk Archives (December 2008 Message tt00332)

mkr,
  Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton, Bart. a Lord, was also a high Mason if my recall is right. HPB references his "Zanoni" fervently. He wrote plenty of works, very wordy. In the foreword of Zanoni page XX the editor reproduces a strange script that is ignegmatic and he states it goes on for 940 mortal pages in foolscarp.

  Everyone loves a good Mystery. look! The hook emerges. Did the Editor of Zanoni read a Vril manuscript? If not then what?

Regards,
John

There is a reference to Vril in HPB's CW where it is stated that Bulwer
Litton named it after reading some old inscriptions/records.
