…x2 to my raptured smell, His rosy lips and coralline to kiss — Well saith the sage that youth’s sole heaven is hell ! A thousand times a night the Fatihah3 Did I recite — my member did not swell. Once for a night I slept with my Habib — A thousand times that member rose and fell !4 Love and not worship is the key of life ; Silence, not prayer, the universal spell. For while I knelt, how could I clasp Habib ?5 And while I prayed, how kiss ? Adorable And perfect boy, thy podex serves alike My member both to challenge and to quell ! So say the Suf…

…e podex is its superior tightness — supposing that Persians thought an excuse necessary. 5. Laila — perhaps the Evil Jinn. Laila means “ night ” ; and Lilith is the chief of the succubi, much feared by good Muslim. It was reserved for Mr Thomas Lake Harris and his English dupe Ber- ridge to cultivate of set purpose this abominable and disgusting variety of masturbation.

…am4 drives forth the drunken man from out the marble prayer-shrine. Blue Mushtari5 strove with red Mirrikh which should be master of the night — But where is Mushtari, where Mirrikh when in the sky the sun doth shine ? Now El Qahar to Hafiz gives the worship unto poets due :6 — But songs are nought and Music all ; what poet music may define ?

Ay ! mine Habib ! thy body’s key Is like a scarlet poppy-bud. Strike in my bell thy clapper ; wake The cosmic echo in my blood ! For El Qahar thy beauty broods, Of thy perfections chews the cud. 1.

…SS As I placed the rigid pen4 of my thought within the inkstand of my imagination, I tasted the bliss of Allah ; and withdrawing, beheld Night and the Void like an hollow vortical shell.5 But it was only Habib’s podex ;6 and EL QAHAR would rather pos- sess Habib’s podex than the universe. 1. I am alone responsible for these capital summaries ; but a well known lady mystic in Lon- don assures me that they are just. 2.

Venus-throw — the double six. The highest throw at dice. 4. Ghoul — a corpse-devouring devil. 5. Hur al Ayn. pl. of Ahwar al Ayn, our Western “ Houri.” Literally, one whose eye is intensely white, i.e. the conjunctiva ; while the cornea is perfectly black. 6. ‘ Attar ’ [Persian text] a druggist. “ Attar of roses ” (corrupted to “ Otto of Roses ”) is all non- sense…

… Therefore, I will put thee in my harem for the fil- thy slut thou art ; the eunuchs shall beat thee soundly before the women ; and this night I will go in to Laila,5 whom most thou hatest of all my con- cubines. While thou wast away, I wooed thee with soft words and lamentations ; now I have my will of thee, I will treat thee with great severity. So also doth Allah entreat kindly the wicked ; and upon the just raineth plagues. For thy desertion, Habib, and this thy ingratitude doth El Qahar give praise to the beloved One. 1. Again a long expla…

138 The relations between the twins of rapture. [persian] Gim My member supporteth thy podex as a rose-tree its flower ; all night long it humbleth and exalteth itself, like the moon, assuaging thy desire. My member cherisheth thy podex, drawing it close ; and hateth it, pressing it away, it heareth all the petition of thy podex, like a maiden enrap- tured by a lute, assuaging thy desire. My member seeth all podices, and judgeth that thy podex alone is beautiful ; just is he therein, and consoleth it with pearly dew, brighter than the eye of a …

…CES It is a pleasure to be thy tutor,1 Habib ; thou learnest swiftly, and (I think) wilt not soon for- get. When thou camest in to me at night thou wast all in tears ; and clasping my feet didst moan exceedingly, and beseech pity. Yet when I smote thy buttocks with the whip, bidding thee be cheerful, thou didst rise instant with laughter and smiles. Thou didst put on thy old provoking coquetry ; though for many days thou hadst drunk nothing but water, thou didst comport thyself as one in whom the wine first blu- sheth.2 Also when my love revive…

…ile I beat her with whips of hide. So that she became unconscious ; and her repu- tation was of chastity and prudence.4 Therefore, as to-night is full moon, I will ac- quaint thee with a certain cherry-tree that hangs over a cool reach of Ruknabad. Under its blossom we will sit in our boat and listen to the water. Go therefore and anoint thee with rose ; and besmear thy podex with jasmine mixed with ambergris in oil5 ; for not until the dawn breaks will El Qahar withdraw his member.6

…cellencies of thy love, the perfections of thy podex. Upon these I dis- course fluently, so that at last the guests are weary. Only last night I was bidden by Yusuf,2 that ill- conditioned3 bastard ! to hide my head therein, if so I loved it ; adding that, thanks to the Qazi, there would be no difficulty in performing the task. Both these reproaches are thy fault, Habib ! O beautiful one ! thou hast bewitched me and thou hast betrayed me. But as thy beauty excuses the former, so does thy return make an end of regret for the latter. Now am I awa…

… thou didst veil thy buttocks with the spangled muslin of Egypt, we cried out that it was the face of Allah radiant through the stars of night — for we were excessively drunk, Habib ! — But yesterday we laughed even louder when my women veiled thee as to thy face with a black veil, and Laila cried : “ Allah be praised, the Concealer, that He hath permitted us to conceal the podex of this pig.” Thou didst not laugh, O spoiler of sport ! Nor did the rattans of the eunuchs move thee to mirth, falling like the first hard rain of summer upon thy bac…

82 The Peace, the Jealousy, and the Ecstasy of God. The night is full of small breezes, blowing apple- blossoms hither and thither. All the stars shine, and thou shalt have a caress for every star. But there is only one moon, and only once shall thy podex be invaded ; for not until the dawn breaks will El Qahar withdraw his member. Even so that happy one, who is united with Al- lah, shall never leave Him ; so the crimson of the West shall fade into the blue of the whole sky, and the blue be illumined by the streamers of the false dawn, which is…

…y beget quite as many children as another, while monogamy is the fashion. If man were expected to fertilize some do- zens of women every night, like a stud ram, I don’t say : but he is not. But on the positive side, a strict adherence to sodomy, except for the practical purpose of begetting children, or for pacifying women, an object which a parallel development of Sapphism would more rationally fulfil, would avoid the numberless crimes and calamities inseparable from sexual intercourse — venereal diseases (al- most entirely), seduction, aborti…

…vented a great deal of copulation which would otherwise take place. There is a great gulf fixed between the ‘ short time ’ and the ‘ all night ’, and that great gulf is filled with Condy’s Fluid ! This applies equally to Sodomy. If the semen is safely bestowed in mouth or anus of the beloved one, the temptation is to begin all over again ; bar the trifle of fatigue, one is in the same position as at first ; its loss between the legs or in the hand rouses a sentiment of dis- gust2 which is fatal to passion. Even the mouth, like the vagina, remai…

The Shame of the Prodigal. 69 thy feet. Thou art no longer cheerful ; Laila in the night bade me observe that in thy song, which thou sangest to the eunuchs, there was a note of pain. Is it because thou hast not eaten for three days that thou hast lost thy good spirits ? Or wast thou ashamed, shooting the peppercorns ?3 No, by Allah, for thou hast no shame. It may be because I have clothed the male ass of Abdullah the tailor in costly trappings and made him pass throughout the whole city in charge of the pimp Mohammed Shaib the Maghraby4 saying…

…r Fron- tier officials in N.W. India. The method of manu- facture is interesting. A poor and despairing man is selected and watched. One night, as he slinks through some deserted beggar’s haunt, he is se- cretly drugged and conveyed to a palatial house with gardens and fountains. He awakes to find himself robed in fine linen and purple, surrounded by rich wines and foods, and by an adoring bevy of the most luscious beauties that he can im- agine. He is however always kept to a certain ex- tent under the influence of hashish, in order to bewilde…
