Magick Without Tears

PROPHECY 259 the Tree whose root is 31, and the entire numerical-verbal system based thereupon organized with incredibly simple intricacy; well, that is an Eohippus of an entirely different tint! It is no more the chance (if happy) statement of any smooth-tongued philosopher, but the evidence of, and the key to, an incalculably vast design. As well attribute the Riemann-Christoffel Tensor to the "happy thought" of some post -prandial rna them a tician. Here is another case. Now then this two-in-One letter <. 0, is the third Key to this Law; and on the discovery of that fact, after years of constant seeking, what sudden splendours of Truth, sacred as secret, blazed in he midnight of my mind! Observe now; "this circle squared in its failure is a key also.' Now I knew that in the value of the letters of ALHIM, 'the Gods', the Jews had concealed a not quite correct value of n, the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, to 4 places of decimals: 3.1415; nearer would be 3.1416. If I prefix our Key, 31 putting ()« 0, Set or Satan, before the old Gods, I get 3.141593,1T correct to Six places, Six being my own number and that of Horus the Sun. And one more, this time an actual prediction. Here again is what might at first seem almost an evasion! "One cometh after him," indeed! I suppose so. It fits anybody who discovers it or claims to have done so. Not one little bit! For when the time came, and the Key was found, the finder's name in the Order was-and had been from the moment of his admission as a Probationer-A chad , the Hebrew word for "One." And he came "after him" in the precise technical sense, that he was in fact the next person to undertake the Adventure of the Abyss. I hope you are not getting the idea that my Prophetic ambit is limited to these high-falutin' metaphysical masterpieces of Runic Lore. In case you do, I now propose to break your "seven green withes that were never dried"
