"... And he
placed his son Seth over the second
aeon in the presence of the second light
Oriel. And in the third aeon
the seed of Seth was placed
over the third light Daveithai.
And the souls of the saints were placed (there).
And in the fourth aeon
the souls were placed of those who do not know the
Pleroma and who did not repent at once,
but who persisted for a while and repented
afterwards; they are by the fourth
light Eleleth. These are
creatures which glorify the invisible Spirit."
