. English: Jerusalem The Emanation of The Giant Albion e p70 300 Jerusalem The Emanation of The Giant Albion, copy E, object 70 (Bentley 70, Erdman 70, Keynes 70) Sector E plate Illustration: A road passes beneath a huge trilithon—perhaps to be identified with the Stonehenge site, mentioned several times in Jerusalem—that looms over three standing, or walking, figures. The surrounding countryside is grassy and hilly, with suggestions of trees in front of the standing stone on the right. A full moon lights a bright but cloudy night sky, with birds flying between the capstone of the trilithon and the final line of the upper block of text. The elongated clouds may also suggest the smoke of a sacrificial religion and perhaps intestines (compare plate 24, right margin); the cloud outlines in the right margin of the upper area of text extend the design to the top of the plate, while the marks in the right margin of the lower area, which continue the border of grass and earth just above the initial line of the lower area, along with the touches of green in the bottom right corner, have a comparable effect of roughly integrating the lower area of the plate with the rest of the design. Component (Sector C) Keywords: gown, female, standing, walking, facing forward, facing away, arm at side, arms raised at 45 degrees Three gowned figures who may be female stand or walk on a road that runs beneath a huge trilithon. Their very indistinct features make it impossible to describe them except in general terms. They seem to be facing(?) the viewer. The left figure has its visible right arm at its side. The middle figure may be holding its arms raised at 45 degrees (perhaps reaching behind the flanking figures). Component (Sector CD) Keywords: grass, tree The surrounding countryside is grassy, with suggestions of trees in front of the standing stone on the right and over into the foreground at the right edge of the design. Component (Sector E) Keywords: hill, sky, cloud, moon, sph
