The Equinox (Volume I, Number I)

… heart of mirth. But I have stopped with love her lips, And as into my arms she slips, I clip her close, and take my fill Of joy to make new birth. IV Oh, holloa! holloa! the hills among, And holloa! down the dale : I bear a golden lyre full-strung With heart-strings bright and pale. I’ve lilies from the fountain-head, And purple flags and roses red, And all the songs of Pan have flung Their fragrance in my tale. Vv And but as yesterday it seems She tripped me as I ran, And scattering all my half-fledged dreams, Hailed me a foolish man. Perchan…

Confessions of Aleister Crowley

…ind his mate In the dominion of the uncreate, ....And lastly --- to return to it, and love it! This was my last adventure. I returned to New York by short stages and resumed the anchorless tossing. The one new feature was my affair with Stuart X. The next act was the appearance of Ananda K. Koomaraswamy, the Eurasian critic of religion and art, with his wife, Ratan Devi, a musician from Yorkshire, who had fallen in love with him and filched him from his first wife. He soon got sick of her and took refuge in India, but finding it a continual nui…

Confessions of Aleister Crowley

…n. I did not know it. I did not suspect it, but the Bagh-i-Muattar is a symptom of supreme significance. I was on the brink of a totally new development. On Sunday, October 22nd, I had an astral interview with Soror F. which brought my up with a shock. She was accompanied by a golden hawk, in whom I later recognized one of the Secret Chiefs of the A.'. A.'.. The conversation turned on the subject of the Great Work. It was defined as the creation of a new universe. The interview left me spiritually prostrate. I had been perfectly happy with my p…

Tannhäuser

…While morn is cold and gray ! So, match thy blushes to the dawn ; Thy bosom to the rising moon, Until our loves to earth have drawn Some new bewitching tune. Come, Gretchen, in the dusk of day. Where nymphs and dryads creep away Beneath the oaks, to laugh and play 78

Cambridge Poets 1900–1913

…thus to adore This exquisiteness of nature ever In silence . . . . But with instant light Rends the film ; with joy I quiver To see with new celestial sight Flower and leaf and grass and tree , Doomed barks on an eternal sea , Flit phantom -like as transient smoke . Beauty herself her spell has broke, Beauty, the herald and the lure, Her message told , may not endure ; Her portal opened , she has died , Supreme immortal suicide. Yes, sleepless nature soundless flings Invisible grapples round the soul, Drawing her through the web of things To th…

The Law is for All

…ster” is one who performs a service, in this case evidently that of reveal­ ing; He was the intelligible medium between the Babe God—the New £on about to be born—and myself. This Book of the Law is the Voice of his Mother, His Father, and Himself. But on His appearing, He assumes the active form twin to Harpocrates, that of Ra-Hoor-Khuit. The Concealed Child becomes the Conquering Child, the armed Horus avenging his father Osiris. So also our own Silent Self, helpless and witless, hidden within us, will spring forth, if we have craft to loose h…
