…on, and sanctification — independent of the physical and moral accidents circumstantial of the particular incident—is the realization of love as a sacrament. The use of the physical means as a Magical Operation — whose formula is that by uniting two opposites,by dissolving both, anni hilating both (to create a third thing which transcends that oppo sition), the phase of duality which constitutes the consciousness of imperfection is perceived as the absolute negative whose appre hension is identical with that duality—is the accomplishment of …

…ty which an unfaithful woman is careful to assume. But she was by no means as easy as her counte- nance would have indicated. Her serpentlover was taking a mean advantage of her confusion to attack her in two places at once-her worn-out passions were being frightfully stimulated, and she did not think she could possibly maintain her balance at the supreme moment. And Satan was really ven- turing terribly far. Up and up he writhed, and the mouth of her womb spasmodically closed and re- opened in vain. He penetrated more and more deeply, and at l…

…hings lead to division of will and to stagnation. They are shackles of our Going. They hamstring our Pegasus. We are to rise up—to Go—to Love—we are to be awake, alert — Joyous and eager Our tresses adorning, O let us beleaguer The City of Morning!1 1 Crowley, The World’s Tragedy (1910), p. 31, paraphrase; the original poem has “O let us away to / The city of morning!”! The Secret of Magick is to “enflame oneself in praying.” This is the ready test of a Star, that it whirls flaming through the sky. You cannot mistake it for an Old Maid objectin…

Poor little devil ! As I came, she shot off my well-oiled plenipo and was immediately split up from the fork to the shoulders by the giant callibis- tris of Lord R . . . y, whose affection for a buttered bun is only equalled by the size of his Julius Cae- sar.

… dedication in words, invoking the appropriate God to indwell that pure temple which you hâve prepared for Him. Do this with fervour and love, as if to balance the icy detachment which is the proper mental attitude for banishing.1 The words of purification are: Asperges me, Therion, hyssopo, et mundabor; lavabis me, et super nivem dealbabor. Those of consécration are: Accendat in nobis Therion ignem sui amoris et flammam aeternae caritatis. 2 These, as initiâtes of the VIT of O.T.O. are aware, mean more than appears.

Concerning the frime method of this Magick Art : — Let the devotee consider well that although Christ and Osiris be one, yet the former is to be worshipped with Christian, and the latter with Egyptian, rites. And this, although the rites themselves are ceremonially équivalent. There should, however, be one symbol declaring the transcending of such limitations 3 and with regard to …

…. 59. As brothers fight ye! Commentary: Fight! Fight like gentlemen, without malice, because fighting is the best game in the world, and love the second best! Don’t slander your enemy, as the newspapers would have you do; just kill him, and then bury him with honour. Don’t keep crying “Foul” like a fifth-rate pugilist. Don’t boast! Don’t squeal! If you’re down, get up and hit him again! Fights of that sort make fast friends. There is perhaps a magical second-meaning in this verse, a ref erence to the Ritual of which we find hints in the legend…

We simply sailed through the darkness to find the dawn caressing the crest of Posilippo and the first glint of sunrise signalling ecstatic greetings to the blue waters of the Bay of Naples. . When the train stopped, there was Hector Laroche at the door, ordering everybody about in fluent Italian. We had the best suite in the best hotel, and our luggage arrived not ten minutes late…

But when I came beyond the Abyss, to be reborn within the womb of BABALON, then came he unto me abiding in my virgin heart, its Lord and Lover! Also He made me a Magus, speaking through His Law, the Word of the new Aeon, the Aeon of the Crowned and Conquerin…

32 Messiah (a reincarnation of Jesus) would be born of the love between two men. Sodomy was thus a religious duty with the Turk : at any moment his passion might be used to bring about the Mille- nium : so with the Christian it became heresy, and was punished as such. People who were beyond suspicion, such as Princes of the Church, could always obtain dispensations, and in fact habitually did so. The documents are extant. This was to the mediaeval mind a far more urgent matter than any mere persistence of Levitical tradition, founded as it was …

…f how the dinner might have ended, and I trembled all over like a man in an ague fit. What was happening in me? Had I suddenly fallen in love with life, or had I simply become aware of the fear of death ? When we reached the fresh air, I knew it was the former. Lamus had made me feel. The effect of the drug had been to kill all feelingin me. My impulse to kill myself had not been so wholly negative’as I had thought. It was a positive craving for what I supposed to be the anzsthesia of death. The pain of life had been too much to endure, and the…

Peter is still desperately striving to save himself. “ He that loveth his life shall lose it.” I must dedicate my miraculously restored faculties to his salvation. Only I don’t see how to set to work. If only Basil were here. He would know. He has worked out the technique. All I can do is to love and labour blindly. After all, there must have been angels looking after me in some sense which I don’t pretend to understand. Why should they not be even more vigilant on his be…
