About this number
The digits 1 and 5 add to 6, and Clement's specimen is Napoleon Bonaparte, born on the 15th of August 1769. The reading there is a genius for system and order, a mind both intellectual and intuitive, and a refusal to recognize the word defeat. Clement wrote that with the career already complete, which makes it a description of a known man and no test of the number.
Westcott notes that Jews avoided writing the Hebrew letters for 10 and 5 together, as they spell a name of God, and used 9 and 6 for fifteen instead. The 15 Psalms of Degrees and the festive 15th of the month Ab appear in the same passage. Sepharial's name list reads virtue, culture, integrity. Clement's key is B flat major.
