(APJ) 13 However, the origin of the demons that dwell in all the body is set at four: heat, cold, wetness, and dryness. (APJ) 14 However, the mother of all of them is matter, but he who rules over heat, Phloxopha; but he who rules over cold, Oroorrothos; but he who rules over dryness, Erimacho; but he who rules over wetness, Athuro. (APJ) 15 However, the mother of all of these, Onorthochras, stands among them, because she is the one who is without limit, and she combines with them all, and she really is matter, because she nourishes them. (APJ) 16 The four chief demons (are): Ephememphi, who pertains to pleasure; Yoko, who pertains to lust; Nenentophni, who pertains to grief; Blaomen, who pertains to fear. (APJ) 17 However, the mother of all of them (is) Esthensis-Ouch-Epi-Ptoe. (APJ) 18 Passions issued forth from the four demons, but from grief: envy, jealousy, misfortune, trouble, pain, cruelty, anxiety, lamentation, and so on. (APJ) 19 However, from pleasure arise plentiful evil, and vacuous arrogance, and the like. (APJ) 20 However, from lust: anger, fury, and bitterness, and bitter passion, and never being satisfied, and the like. (APJ) 21 However, from fear: horror, groveling, misery, and humiliation. (APJ) 22 All these resemble things virtuous, but also things vicious. (APJ) 23 However, insight into their reality (comes from) Anaro, the chief of the hylic soul, «19» because it pertains to the seven senses, to Ouch-Epi-Ptoe. (APJ) 24 Here is the number of the angels: all together, they are 365. (APJ) 25 All of them worked on it, limb by limb, until they finished both the psychic and the hylic body. (APJ) 26 In addition to these, there are others who control the remaining passions. (APJ) 27 Although I have not listed them for you, if you want to know who they are, this is (all) written in the Book of Zoroaster. (APJ)
