\n2 It was full of trees of the seed alluded to; and water leaped down upon it.
\n3 There appeared a cataract composed as of many cataracts both towards the west and towards the east. Upon one side were trees; upon the other water and dew.
\n4 Then I went to another place from the desert; towards the east of that mountain which I had approached.
\n5 There I beheld choice trees, particularly, those which produce the sweet-smelling opiate, frankincense and myrrh; and trees unlike to each other.
\n6 And over it, above them, was the elevation of the eastern mountain at no great distance.
\n7 I likewise saw another place with valleys of water which never wasted,
\n8 Where I perceived a goodly tree, which in smell resembled Zasakinon.
\n9 And towards the sides of these valleys I perceived cinnamon of a sweet odour. Over them I advanced towards the east.
\n11 Then I beheld another mountain containing trees, from which water flowed like nectar, Its name was Sarira, and Kalboneba. And upon this mountain I beheld another mountain, upon which were trees of Aloe.
\n12 These trees were full, like almond trees, and strong; and when they produced fruit, it was superior to all redolence.
\n13 After these things, surveying the entrances of the north, above the mountains, I perceived seven mountains replete with pure nard, odoriferous trees, cinnamon and papyrus.
\n14 From there I passed on above the summits of those mountains to some distance eastwards, and went over the Erythraean sea (The Erythraean Sea is the name in ancient cartography for a body of water located between the Horn of Africa and the Arabian peninsula). And when I was advanced far beyond it, I passed along above the angel Zateel, and arrived at the garden of righteousness. In this garden I beheld, among other trees, some which were numerous and large, and which flourished there.
\n15 Their fragrance was agreeable and powerful, and their appearance both varied and elegant. The tree of knowledge also was there, of which if any one eats, he becomes endowed with great wisdom.
\n16 It was like a species of the tamarind tree, bearing fruit which resembled grapes extremely fine; and its fragrance extended to a considerable distance. I exclaimed, How beautiful is this tree, and how delightful is its appearance!
\n17 Then holy Raphael, an angel who was with me, answered and said, This is the tree of knowledge, of which your ancient father and your aged mother ate, who were before you; and who, obtaining knowledge, their eyes being opened, and knowing themselves to be naked, were expelled from the garden.
\n18 From there I went on towards the extremities of the earth; where I saw large beasts different from each other, and birds various in their countenances and forms, as well as with notes of different sounds.
\n19 To the east of these beasts I perceived the extremities of the earth. The path way up towards heaven stood open, and I beheld the celestial stars come forth. I numbered them as they proceeded out of the gate, and wrote them all down, as they came out one by one according to their number. I wrote down their names altogether, their times and their seasons, as the angel Uriel, who was with me, pointed them out to me.
\n20 He showed them all to me, and wrote down an account of them.
\n21 He also wrote down for me their names, their regulations, and their operations.
\n22 From there I advanced on towards the north, to the extremities of the earth.
\n23 And there I saw a great and glorious wonder at the extremities of the whole earth.
\n24 I saw there a staircases leading into heaven; three of them distinctly separated. The winds proceeded from them as the pathway was open, the wind was blowing cold, hail, frost, snow, dew, and rain.
\n25 From one of the staircases the wind blew mildly; but the wind from the other two staircases, it blow with violence and force.
\n26 From there I went to the extremities of the world westwards;
\n27 Where I perceived three open staircases leading up towards heaven, as I had seen in the north; the gates and passages through them being of equal magnitude.
\n28 Then I proceeded to the extremities of the earth southwards; where I saw three open staircases leading up towards heaven in the south, from which issued dew, rain, and wind.
\n29 From there I went to the extremities of heaven eastwards; where I saw three heavenly open staircases to the east, which had smaller staircases within them. Through each of these small staircases the angels passed on, and proceeded towards the west by a path which was seen by them, and that at every period of their task at hand.
\n30 When I beheld them, I blessed; every time in which they appeared, I blessed the Lord of glory, who had made those great and splendid signs, that they might display the magnificence of this works to angels and to the souls of men; and that these might glorify all his works and operations; might see the effect of his power; might glorify the great labour of his hands; and bless him for ever.<\/p>\n
