THE EQUINOX There was a silence. “ Excuse me, father, ” said the girl at last, “ but I’ve just had a glimpse of you for the first time in my life, and it’s a bit ofa shock. I must think. ” And she stood motionless until her hapless father attracted her attention by backing into his wicker chain “ Don't touch holy things," she snapped suddenly, taking the sketch from his nerveless hand, and replacing it reverently in the portfolio. The action seemed to decide heri "I'll give you an address to send my things to, ” she said, and walked out of the g…

THE EQUINOX [Goes to cupboard and hrings ale and glasses. Seeing himself alone, he whispers, Safe ! Safe| dropping into the furtive, gleeful manner. Then suddenly HE seems to listen intently. All this time the others are heard of talking and laughing. HE goes R, shuts door, goes to place where corpse is, listens with ear to floor. With great terror, rising to his knees] JACK.

THE EQUINOX This practice should continue assiduously for at least one year. The quickness of the chela in gathering up the objects is expected to increase with time. The practice need not be limited to a quarter of an hour thrice daily after a time, but increased with discretion. Care must be taken to detect the first symptom of fatigue, and to stop, if possible, even before it threatens. The practised psychologist learns to recognise even minute hesitations that mark the forcing of the attention. 2. Alternating with the above, let the Practic…

THE EQUINOX Did Brutus save Roman liberty by killing Caesar? In killing Caligula, Chaerea only made place for Claudius and Nero. To protest against violence by violence, is to justify it, and to force it to reproduce itself. But to triumph over evil by good, over selfishness by self- abnegation, over ferocity by pardon, that is the secret of Christianity, and it is that of eternal victory. I have seen the place where the earth still bledfrom the murder of Abel, and on that place there ran a brook of tears. Under the guidance of the centuries, m…

THE EQUINOX The old guard does not surrender, but neither does it die! The proof of it is the enthusiasm of our children, who mean, one day, to be also soldiers of the old guard! Napoleon is no more a man: he is the very genius of France, he is the second saviour of the world, and he also gave for a sign the cross to his apostles. St. Helena and Golgotha are the beacons of the new civilization; they are the two piles of an immense bridge made by the rainbow of the final deluge, and which throws a bridge between the two worlds. And can you belie…

THE EQUINOX John Calvin protested against the stakes of Rome, in order to give himself the right to burn Michael Servetus. Every people that liberates itself from a Charles I, or a Louis XVI, must undergo a Robespierre or a Cromwell, and there is a more or less absurd anti-pope behind all protestations against the legitimate papacy. The divinity of Jesus Christ only exists in the Catholic Church, to which He transmits hierarchically His life and His divine powers. This divinity is sacerdotal and royal by virtue of communion ; but outside of tha…

THE EQUINOX The names of women members are never divulged. It is not lawful here to disclose the name of any living chief. It was Karl Kellner who revived the exoteric organiza- tion of the O.T.O. and initiated the plan now happily com- plete of bringing all occult bodies again under one gov- ernance. The letters O.T.O. represent the words Ordo Templi Orientis (Order of the Temple of the Orient, or Oriental Templars), but they have also a secret meaning for initiates. 3. The Order is international, and has existing branches in every civilized c…

Exactly: the one difficulty] My best way out will be to concentrate on the New Ritual, learn it perfectly by heart, work it at the right moment. . . . I will go, with this idea, to have a Citron presse; thence to my Secret Restaurant, and dine, always learning the Ritual. I will leave off the mantra, though it is nearly as much part of me as my head by now; and instead repeat over and over again the words of the Ritual so that I can do it in the end with pe…

THE EQUINOX “Say, rather, thanks to your faith and your docility. And now, farewell: I must work... Well, why do you assume this suppliant air, and what more do you want of me?” “Oh, if you only would——” “Well, what now? Have you not obtained all that you asked for, and even more than you asked for, for you did not mention money to me?” “Yes, doubtless,” said the other sighing; “ but I do want to see him again!” “Incorrigible!” said Eliphas. Some days afterwards, the Professor of Transcendental Magic was awakened, about two o'clock in the morni…

…and tedious to say the least. I suppose I was more accustomed to the dazzling pyrotechnics and virtuosity of the earlier Crowley, to The Equinox, and other books of sixty years ago. But my reaction was a serious mistake, as I discovered several years later when the opportunity to read it again presented itself. For despite its wit and humor, Magick without Tears is a serious, sober and sophisticated piece of good writing. It dazzles, but in a rather more restrained way than his antecedent work. It requires quiet study and sober meditation to ap…
