…No more up into it, but still behind Follow like flame, and lead our love along Into the valleys of the ocean, blind, But seeing all the world awake with song Of many lyres and lutes and reeds of straw, And all the rivers musical that throng In bright assemblage of unchanging law, Like many flute-players; and seeing this, (That all the mountains looked upon and saw) The sweetness of the savour of a kiss, And all its perfume wafted to the sky. Nay, but no wind will drive our fortalice (So strong against the sun) to where they ply Those pallid wi…

EDITORIAL Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law. THE world needs religion. Religion must represent Truth, and celebrate it. This truth is of two orders: one, concerning Nature ex- ternal to Man; two, concerning Nature internal to Man. Existing religions, especially Christianity, are based on primitive ignorance of the facts, particularly of external Nature. Celebrations must conform to the custom and nature of the people. Christianity has destroyed the joyful celebrations, char- acterized by music, dancing, feasting, and making love; …

… “ Gereth, I am thine ! ” I must have listened to the voice of hell. The earthly horror wove its serpent spell Against the Beauty of the World : I heard Desolate voices cry the doleful word “ Unready ! ” All the soul invisible Of that vast desert echoed, and concurred. The voices died in mystery away. I passed, confounded, lifeless as the clay, Somewhere I knew not. Many a dismal league Of various terror wove me its intrigue, And many a demon daunted : day by day Death dogged despair, and misery fatigue. Behold ! I came with haggard mien again …

Never maiden lips shall cull Myriad blossoms beautiful.

A criminal conviction is a matter of public record, and such an allegation as your editor has made is capable of rigorous proof or disproof, like any other matter of officially recorded public history. It is this obvious fact, instantly felt by every reader, that m…
