Short Art

each chamber of the column itself, one ratio meaning a logical proportion or argument is abstracted. The table has seven columns, as is evident, in which are implied the eighty-four columns explained in the Ars Magna. In the table itself, T signifies that the letters which are on the side before T are of the first figure, and those which are after are of the second figure. Through the table itself, the intellect is ascendant and descendant; it is ascendant because it ascends to prior and more general things, and it is descendant because it descends to posterior and particular things. Furthermore, it is copulative because it couples the columns, just as the column B-C-D is coupled with the column C-D-E, and so on for the others.
