190 THE EQUINOX The livid lightning strikes us, and we fall With one last cry into a vast abyss, And time and space exist there not at all: We have encompassed heaven in a kiss. And for a moment we are gods, immortal, Stricken to death within the secret portal.

He is the emancipation of the spirit which breaks the slavery of the flesh. He is devotion in revolt against egoism. He is the sublime modesty which replies to pride: “I will not…

THE EQUINOX 8. By some device, such as the changing of thy ring from one finger to another, create in thyself two personalities, the thoughts of one being within entirely different limits from that of the other, the common ground being the necessities of life.* Of thine own ingenium devise others. 2. On each occasion that thou art betrayed into thinking that thou art sworn to avoid, cut thyself sharply upon the wrist or forearm with a razor; even as thou shouldst beat a disobedient dog.

THE EQUINOX selfishness, the limbs dry up or become encumbered with fat. Nature, in making of our body the portrait of our soul, guarantees its resemblance for ever, and tirelessly retouches it. You pretty women who are not good, be sure that you will not long remain beautiful. Beauty is the loan which Nature makes to virtue.

Perversity, by modifying the organism whose equilibrium it destroys, creates at the same time a fatality of needs which urges it t…
