“On this Lav-Merz-Nokh between these white, black, and hair strings there were also strung in each octave fourteen strings also from ‘twisted intestines,’ which were painted red and called ‘Keesookesschoor,’ and if contemporary beinbeings of the Earth were to use these strings they would call them ‘quarter notes.’

“In addition to this, all those ‘quarter note strings’ which were stretched on either side of the hair strings were fitted in such a way that the vibrations issuing from them could at any moment be changed as desired by means of tightening or loosening these strings and thus the vibrations they produced could be regulated and by ear blended with the frequently changing vibrations obtained from the hair strings.

“And this was so done because thanks to the frequently changing vibrations of the hair strings, the qualitativeness of which, I already said, depended on the temperature of the atmosphere, on the radiations of the beings present nearby, and on many other causes, the vibrations of these ‘red strings’ acquired such a property that if they did not blend with the vibrations of the hair strings the vibrations issuing from them would act on the beings present very ‘cacophonically-harmfully,’ even to their possible total destruction.

“With the frequent changing however of the stretching of the red strings and with the blending of their vibrations with the general vibrations issuing from the Lav-Merz-Nokh, their harmlessness was obtained, that is to say, owing to this, the general vibrations issuing from the Lav-Merz-Nokh became for the beings who heard them what is called ‘Harmoniously flowing’ and not harmfully acting.
