- For the title page to The Book of Thel (1965 facsimile), Thel wears a white gown and holds a shepherd's crook while standing at the base of an arched, drooping tree. Nature is everywhere: vines surround the tree, a large body of water stands in the background, several birds fly overhead, and two large red flowers blossom from the ground. Seeming to emerge from one of these flowers is a golden-hued female figure, who is embraced by a floating male figure.
