There is still one more arrangement to be learnt. If the line of the
tessaract, which in the Mala position goes Ana, or W, be changed into
the [=Z] or downwards direction, the tessaract will then appear in our
space below the Mala position; and the side presented to us will not be
Mala, but that which contains the lines Dos, Cuspis, and Ops. This side
is Model 3, and is called Lar. Underneath the place which was occupied
by Urna Mala, will come Urna Lar; under the place of Moles Mala, Moles
Lar; under the place of Frenum Mala, Frenum Lar. The tessaract, which in
the Mala position was an inch out of our space Ana, or W, from Urna
Mala, will now come into it an inch downwards, or [=Z], below Urna
Mala, with its Lar presented to us; that is, Thyrsus Lar will be below
Urna Lar. In the whole arrangement of them written below, the highest
floors are written first, for now they stretch downwards instead of
upwards. The name Lar is understood after each.

Here it is evident that what was the lower floor of Malas, Urna, Moles,
Plebs, Frenum, now appears as if carried downwards instead of upwards,
Lars being presented in our space instead of Malas. This Block of Lars
is what we see of the tessaract Set when the Arctos line, which in the
Mala position goes up, is turned into the Ana, or W, direction, and the
Ops line comes in downwards.
The rest of the tessaracts, which consists of the cubes opposite to the
four treated above, and of the tessaractic space between them, is all
Ana in our space. If the tessaract be moved through our space--for
instance, when the Lars are present in it--we see, taking Urna alone,
first the section between Urna Lar and Urna Velum (Model 10), and then
Urna Velum (Model 4), and similarly the sections and Velums of each
tessaract in the Set. When the First Block has passed Kata our space,
Ostrum Lar enters; and the Lars of the Second Block of tessaracts occupy
the places just vacated by the Velums of the First Block. Then, as the
tessaractic Set moves on Kata, the sections between Velums and Lars of
the Second Block of tessaracts enter our space, and finally their
Velums. Then the whole tessaractic Set disappears from our space.
When we have learnt all these aspects and passages, we have experienced
some of the principal features of this small Set of tessaracts.
