T In Adam’s Autobiography we find, toward the end of the sojourn in the Garden, this symbol (see cut on this page) often used and always in this sense, “And being an-hungered we went to the Tree-shaped symbol and ate.” Poetic translators of these lines have been pleased to call this symbol “The Tree of Life,” and weave a pretty story around it which fits in with Adam’s folderol about the snake.

We find, however, much used in the Phoenician hieroglyphics, the most ancient of all languages, this symbol, Tree-shaped symbol the sign of the usurer or pawn-shop. This unquestionably establishes our version of this garden story. (See S.) The variation in Adam’s way of writing the symbol is due either to that extreme sense of delicacy which would naturally make him wish to disguise the unpleasant, or to sheer laziness. He was such a poet.
