But Jason, swiftly turned, evaded these, And chose two oxen from that monstrous herd To whose vast heads he strode, and by the horns

…ut all of their passion divine I lost in the life and the stress of the world ere ever the soul of me wist. But, Orpheus, thy splendider light Was the veil of thyself the more splendid. Thou leapedst as a fountain in flight, As a bird in the rainbow descended ! From the sweet single womb risen higher Did Calliope string thee her lyre, Thy mother: and veiled her in night :-— For thyself to Herself art a veil till the veils of the Heaven be rended and ended. Now, single myself as thy soul, I pray to Apollo indeed! Fling forth to the starriest goa…

Behind the brass of my anonymous brow. Ay ! let the coward and slave who writes write on ! He is no mo…

" Bo " is the root meaning Light, from which spring such words as Bo-tree, Bodhisattva, and Buddha. And " Peep " is Apep, the serpent Apophis. This poem therefore contains the same symbol as that in the Egyptian and Hebrew Bibles. The snake is the serpent of initiation, as the Lamb is the Saviour. This ancient one, the Wisdom of Eternity, sits in its old anguish awaiting the Redeemer. And this holy verse triumphantly assures us that the…

…s for steadiness, and that of the first decanate of Gemini for in‐ spiration. So let us picture him, “integer vitæ scelerisque purus”, a light‐shaft of the Ideal ab‐ sorbing the entire life in concentrated aspiration, passing from earthy Taurus to exalted Gem‐ ini. Here, too, is shewn (as in the Yi) the danger to the subject of this symbol; for the first de‐ can is the card called “Interference”; or, in the old pack, “Shortened Force”.

Hardly as yet one sees the crescent maid Move, half afraid, Into the swarthy forest of the air And, breast made bare, Gather her limbs about her for the chase Through starry space, And, while the lilies sway their heads, to bend _ Her bow, to send A swift white arrow at some recreant star.

(For even my tears are tears of fire, For loathing, madness, and desire.) Ah God ! the traps for fervent feet ! The morrow beaconed, and I came By where the …
