THE EQUINOX five days later he began what he called “The Writings of Truth.” Before we begin these, it will be necessary to enter upon the doctrines of Buddhism at some little length, for Frater I. A. was now at heart a follower of Gotama, being rather disgusted with his Tamil Guru; and under his guidance it was that P. grasped the fundamental importance of Con- centration through meditation. 124

THE EQUINOX eyes of the gilded courtezan—Babylon, thou harlot of the Seven mansions of God’s Glory! But he kept it free from rust, sharp and glittering bright, so that when the time came wherein he should be called upon to use it, it might leap forth from its sheath like a flash of lightning from betwixt the lips of God, and slay him who had ventured to cross his path, silently, without even so much as grating against his bones.
276 THE EQUINOX Half skilled to agonise, half skilled to soothe This passion ineluctable, this power Slave to its single end, to storm the tower That holdeth thee, who art Authentic Truth. O golden hawk! O lidless eye! Behold How the grey creeps upon the shuddering gold! Still I will strive! That by the striving broken I may exhaust this me! That thou mayst sweep Swift on the dead from thine all-seeing steep— And the unutterable word be spoken. ALEISTER CROWLEY,
The Starinthe West BY CAPTAIN J. F. C. FULLER FOURTH LARGE EDITION NOW IN PREPARATION THROUGH THE EQUINOX AND ALL BOOKSELLERS SIX SHILLINGS NET A highly original study of morals and religion by a new writer, who is as entertaining as the average novelist is dull. Nowadays human thought has taken a brighter place in the creation: our emotions are weary of bad baronets and stolen wills; they are now only excited by spiritual crises, catastrophes of the reason, triumphs of the intellig- ence. In these fields Captain Fuller is a master dramatist.

THE EQUINOX You were mine, O my saint, My maiden, my mate, By the might of the right Of the night of our fate. Though I fall, though I faint, Though I char, though I choke, By the hour of our power I invoke, I invoke! By the mystical union Of fairy and faun, Unspoken, unbroken— The dusk to the dawn!— A secret communion Unmeasured, unsung, The listless, resistless, Tumultuous tongue!— O virgin in armour, Thine arrows unsling, In the brilliant resilient First rays of the spring! No Godhead could charm her, But manhood awoke— O fiery Valkyrie, I i…
THE EQUINOX With an angel’s smile—save for its subtlety—he was gone into the tablet. She turned, blew on the fire, that started up friendly, and threw herselfinan armchair. Idly she strummed old-fashioned simple tunes. The door opened. A jolly lad came in and shook the snow from his furs. “Been too bored, little girl?” he said cheerily, confident. “No, dear!” she said. ‘I’ve been fiddling a bit.” “Give me a kiss, Lily!” He bent down and put his lips to hers; then, as if struck by lightning, sprawled, a corpse. She looked down lazily through hal…

THE EQUINOX By the Wand and the Cup I conjure; by the Dagger and Disk I constrain; I am he that is sworn to endure; make thy music again! Iam Lord of the Star and the Seal; I am Lord of the Snake and the Sword; Reveal us the riddle, reveal! Bring us the word of the Lord! As the flame of the sun, as the roar of the sea, as the storm of the air, As the quake of the earth—let it soar for a boon, for a bane, for a snare, For a lure, for a light, for a kiss, for a rod, for a scourge, for a sword— Bring us thy burden of bliss—Bring us the word of the…

…in has stopped, we are at Streatham Hill—let us get out.” ALICIA DE GRUYS. ON THE Loose. By GEORGE RAFFALOVICH. Publishing Office of THE EQUINOX, 124 Victoria Street, S.W. Is. net. The author of the Man-Cover is well-known to the readers of THE EQUINOX. His charm lays principally in the independence of his thought, the delicacy of his touch, in his spirit of pure joy, in his most holy childishness. He shows certainly a great lack of literary experience, an accumulation of various contra- dictory feelings which seem to fight one another for the …
THE EQUINOX May 19th. 1. Assumption of the god-form of Harpocrates: it lasted nine minutes: the result was good, for I got a distinct aura around me. 2. Physical Astral Projection. I formed a sphere which took a human shape but rather corpse-like. I then projected a gray* ray from the left side of my head; this was very tiring and there was no result physically. 3. Concentrated on imaginary self for ten minutes, and then pro- jected self into it with fearful force. Chiah nearly passed.t 4. Red sphere darkened and glorified and returned to light…
