Station XV (October 25, p. 127)
TEMPLE CHURCH, CITY OF LONDON, ENGLAND. Clearly we are back in England, looking for a large city where "everything was buttressed and wrapped in iron" (p. 109). With references to Fish street and the Black-friars, likely the old Dominican priory, we must be in the City of London, confirmed by the dragon insignia for this city.
p. 127. "Ibn has found us lodgings hard on Fish Street. Faust and his men are quartered out past the Black-friars."
p. 138. "Cooled and tempered by good English soil ... a dragonish place indeed."
There is reference to the Templars throughout this story.
p. 106. "...the other wore boots and armour and a battle cloak of white."
p. 127. "I remember one ... who wore a long gray gown, a white collar at his neck. The other who claimed the Whitetooth had on him a badge that showed three heads in sillouette."
The mohammedanism of the Templars was combined with Cabalism and that their idol was in reality the MACROPROSOPUS, or head of the Ancient of Ancients, usually represented by an old man with a beard or as three heads in one, referred to as long face. Faust, who swears by the Triple Flame, is both a Kabbalist and an alchemist (likely patterned after the alchemist, Johann Georg Faust (1480-1540)) and it is he who interprets the Illumination on p. 99.
The Quabbalah divided into many Sephiroth. The one highlighted in the illumination is that of Gevurah or Geburah, the agency of Judgment, punishment and law, that is, "the hall of judgment". This leads one to The Temple Church constructed by the Templars and later the addition of the Temple Law School there. We can find evidence of Koranian the Drawf as guardian.
p. 127. "And guarded by Koranian the Dwarf."
p. 120. "Koranian the Dwarf lurked on the in the grove as a wild animal, and came to be known as Shee ... Deathless Briciu. He found the grove and found the tomb and found the Tooth. Koranian fell upon him and bit off his ear, but Briciu bested her..."
