You might want to consider using some other edition
of the *Sefer Yetzirah* for purposes of citation -
apparently our edition doesn't sit well with some
academics.
Scholem even went so far as to call our edition of
the *Bahir* "worthless".

you might want to look at my < strangely formatted >
essay on the subject over on WitchVox:

And here is a link to the diagram which ought to have
appeared in that essay instead of that clot of mangled

" And what if all of animated nature
Be but organic harps diversely fram'd,
That tremble into thought, as o'er them sweeps
Plastic and vast one intellectual breeze,
At once the Soul of each and God of all? "
~ Coleridge
