O ye two blessed souls! Your letters were received.
They showed that ye have investigated the truth and have
been freed from imitations and superstitions, that ye observe
with your own eyes and not with those of others, hearken
with your own ears and not with the ears of others, and
discover mysteries with the help of your own consciences
and not with those of others. For the imitator saith that such
a man hath seen, such a man hath heard, and such a conscience
hath discovered; in other words he dependeth upon
the sight, the hearing and the conscience of others and hath
no will of his own.
