THOTH
'“And while there are those,” the mad Arab had written, “who have dared to seek glimpses beyond the Veil, and to accept HIM as a Guide, they would have been more prudent had they avoided commerce with HIM; for it is written in the Book of Thoth how terrific is the price of a single glimpse."
H.P. Lovecraft & E. Hoffman Price, Through the Gates Of the Silver Key
"Thoth himself was supposed to have written with his on hand a book of magic and the forty-two volume which contained all the wisdom of the world."
"Thoth was most often represented as an ibis-headed man wearing the moon
crescent and disk."
Veronica Ions, Egyptian Mythology
