Well now, patient reader, I must really conclude this opening chapter. It hasonly to be signed.He who...Stop! Misconceived formulation! With a signature there must be nojoking. Otherwise the same thing will happen to you as happened once beforein one of the countries of Central Europe, when you were forced to pay tenyears' rent for a house you occupied for only three months, simply becauseyou had signed a paper obliging you to renew the lease for the house eachyear.After this and many similar life experiences, I must, in any case as regardsmy own signature, be very, very careful.Very well, then.He who in childhood was called "Tatakh"; in early youth, "Darky"; later,the "Black Greek"; in middle age, the "Tiger of Turkestan"; and now, not justanybody, but the genuine "Monsieur" or "Mister" Gurdjieff, or the "nephewof Prince Mukhransky," or finally, simply a "teacher of dancing."

"On this trans-space ship was Beelzebub with his kinsmen and closecompanions.He was on his way to the planet "Revozvradendr," to a conference inwhich he had consented to take part, at the request of friends of long standingOnly the remembrance of these old friendships had induced him to acceptthe invitation, for he was no longer young, and so lengthy a voyage with itsinevitable hardships was by no means an easy task for one of his years.A short time before this voyage Beelzebub had returned home to the planetKaratas, the place of his arising, and far from which, due to circumstancesnot depending on his essence, he had passed many years of his existence inconditions alien to his nature.These long years of an existence unsuited to him, with all the perceptionsand experiences foreign to his essence, had not failed to leave a noticeablemark on his common presence.Time itself had by now inevitably aged him, and these unaccustomedconditions of existence had brought Beelze-
