…he moon is on the horizon ; the desert aches To turn its face to silent space ; I see the snakes And scorpions make orisons to neighbour Night, Their holy hate envenom Fate, envenom Light, Envenom all that cringe or call, that start or stir. Loves holocaust is to exhaust who loveth her, Exhaust of light, exhaust of might, exhaust of love, Until their world of woe uncurled reach out above To where the great black snake of Fate is coiled about The very spine of God, a vine divine, devout. Oh for the blind kiss of the wind, the desert air Thrilli…

…re is no John beside the cruel wood . I am alone to kiss the silver lips ; I rend my clothing for the temple 's veil ; My heart 's black night must act the sun 's eclipse ; My groans must play the earthquake , till I quail At my own dark imagining . And now The wind is bitterer ; the air breeds snow ; I put my Christ away ; I turn my brow Towards the south steadfastly : my feet must go Some journey of despair . I dare not turn To meet the sun ; I will not follow him ; Better to pass where sand and sulphur burn , And days are hazed with heat , a…

…d the body is a marriage of light and shadow. Light is the instrument of the Word, it is the white writing of God upon the great book of night. Light is the source of thought, and it is in it that one must seek for the origin of all religious dogma. But there is only one true dogma, as there is only one pure light; shadow alone is infinitely varied. Light, shadow, and their harmony, which is the vision of beings, form the principle analogous to the great dogmas of Trinity, of Incarnation, and of Redemption. Such is also the mystery of the cross…

…set. A mountain of pure jet Rears its sheer bulk to heaven; and nosnows Tinge evening with rose. No blaze of noon invades those rocks of night, Nor moon’s benignant might. And looking downward he beheld his folk Bound in no tyrant’s yoke ; Knowing no God, nor fearing any man ; Life’s enviable span Free from disease and vice, sorrow and age. Only death’s joys assuage A gathering gladness at the thought of sleep. Never in all the archives, scroll on scroll, Reaching from aeons wrote they ‘‘ Women weep, Men hate, the children suffer.” In the place…

And, for the world under the stars to-night, It shall be thine, and thine the star that draws The world to worship thee: the days are faded Under the heavens ; there is no more sun, And no more love. The world is hushed and dead.

…ming—the vision of Khephra, etc. It was perhaps this subtle self-satisfaction that lost me . . . so I fell to the shocking abyss of last night! The Dweller of the Threshold is never visible until after one has fallen; he is a Veiled God and smites like the Evil Knight in Malory, riding and slaying—and no man seeth him. But when you are tumbled headlong into Hell, where he lives, then he unveils his Face, and blasts you with its horror!

He has returned home and burnt (as every night since its arrival) the holy incense of Abramelin the Mage. The atmosphere is full of vitality, sweetened and strengthened; the soul naturally and simply turns to the holy task with vigour and confidence; the black demons of doubt and despair flee away; one respires already a foretaste of the Perfume, and obtains almost a premonition 01 the Vision.

The rain comes wearily down, not chasing the dryness, but soddening the streets. The rain of autumn, not the rain of spring! So is it in this soul, Lord Adonai. The thought of Thee is heavy and uneasy, flabby and loose, like an old fat woman stupid-drunk in her slum; which was as a young maiden in a field of lilies, arrow-straight, sun- strong, moon-pure, a form …
