can join with you-off you go again! No, no, a thousand 
times no: this is the practice par excellence where you have 
to do it all yourself. The Vibration of God-names: that 
perhaps, I can at least test you in. But don't you dare come 
up for a test until you've been at it-and hard-for at least 
100 exercises. 
6. Minerval. What is the matter? All you have to do is 
understand it: just a dramatization 
of the process of 
incarnation. Better run through it with me: I'll make it clear, 
and you can make notes of your troubles and their solution 
for the use of future members. 
7. The Book of Thoth. Surely all terms not in a good 
dictionary are explained in the text. I don't see what I can do 
about it, in any case; the same criticism would apply to (say) 
Bertrand Russell's Introduction to Mathematical Physics. 
wouldn't it? 
Is x an R-ancestor of y if y has every R-hereditary that x 
has, provided x is a term which has the relation R to 
something or to which something has the relation R? 
(Enthusiastic cries of "Yes, it is!") He says "A number is 
anything which has the number of some class." Feel better 
now? 
Still, it would be kind of you to go through a page or so 
with me, and tell me where the shoe pinches. Of course I 
have realized the difficulty long ago; but I don't know the 
solution-or 
if there is a solution. I did think of calling 
Magick "Magick without Tears"; and I did try having my 
work cross-examined as I went on by minds of very inferior 
education or capacity. In fact, Parts I and II of Book 4 were 
thus tested. 
Love is the law. love under will.
