Actually, it's two gums in one. Each letter pair in a row of servient squares can be combined with a third (I forget the formula off the top of my head) to form a goetic name. The letters of the row read across form an angelic name. So RZLA is angelic in the model, whereas RZ and LA are the roots of goetic trigrammatons. Paul
