Notes

  • The unencrypted text comes from the poem The Marriage of Heaven and Hell by English poet William Blake, in the section "The Argument".
    • The encrypted text ("Energy is Eternal Delight", when assembled and cleaned) likewise comes from the same work, under the section "The Voice of the Devil". Notably, it is given as one of the "Contraries" to "Errors" in biblical and spiritual interpretation.
