spelled with the same letters, meaning primarily
"to boil, to cook." Figuratively, it signifies "to
love," and is fundamentally a verb designating
love between the sexes. thus, "David" means
"Love" or "Beloved." ... often the alchemic;al
books assure us that the Great Work, or
operation of the Sun, is nothing other th~an
"coction," that is, cooking or boiling. What 1:he
alchemist are hiding behind this veil of language
is the simple truth that love is the fulfilling of 1:he
law, that the pure gold of the Absolute is found
through the working of the gentle heal: of love,
that the sacrifice of sacrifices is a broken and
contrite heart purified in the fires of love, that
only through love can the true pattern of that
perfect golden cube, the New Jerusalem, be
rightly perceived and understood." [Case, 1985,
p. 138.1 see 107,222, 155.
