"And it requested to give it a fellow worker,
which is the mind, and he consented (IV 10, 14: [gladly]).
And when the invisible Spirit had consented,
the mind came forth, and it attended
Christ, glorifying him and
Barbelo. And all these came into being
in silence.
"And the mind wanted
to perform a deed through the word
of the invisible Spirit. And his will became
a deed and it appeared with
the mind; and the light glorified it.
And the word followed the will.
For because of the word, Christ
the divine Autogenes created everything. And the
eternal life
and the foreknowledge attended and glorified
the invisible Spirit and Barbelo,
for whose sake they had come into being."
