Thy book where seven sins their sceptres wield, And seven sorrows track them, and one joy Cancels their infamy ; Shame and regret are fused to an alloy, Whose drossy weight sinks down and is consumed, While o’er the ruddy metal is relumed A purer flame of peace, with knowledge now per- fumed. Thy ways are very bitter. Not one rose Twines in the crown of thorns thy spouse must wear; There …

…Magical Link arises! No matter how mighty the truth of Thelema, it cannot prevail unless it is applied to and by mankind. As long as The Book of the Law was in Manuscript, it could only affect the small group amongst whom it was circulated. It had to be put into action by the Magical Observation of publishing it. When this was done, it was done without proper perfection . Its commands as to how the work ought to be done were not wholly obeyed. There were doubt and repugnance in FRA TER PERDURABO's mind, and they hampered His work. He was halfhe…
