THE EQUINOX most pious and pig-headed agree that these are the ‘last days’?

…m of mind, whether from the customary spiritual standpoint, or from the opposite corner of materialism, the result is just the same. One last quotation from Mr. Sullivan. 'The universe may ultimately prove to be irrational. The scientific adventure may have to be given up.' But that is all he knows about science, bless his little heart! We do not give up. 'You lied, d'Ormea, I do not repent!' The results of experiment are still valid for experience, and the fact that the universe turns out on enquiry to be unintelligible only serves to fortify …
…hanged these five hours past ; By the full red lips and the broad white brow I charge thee stay ; I am weary now; I would sleep again—at last.” ‘* By thy golden hair ; by the laughter rare Of love’s kiss conquering, By the lips full red and the ivory bed I charge thee come, I am fain instead Of the nightmare’s lordly wing !” The bride was sad and spoke no more.

Yes- terday, I read the article on the subject (Training of the Mind) carefully, also learnt the formula of the four great meditations on Love, Pity, Happiness and Indifference. At night, I again attempted “thinking backwards,” but experienced rather more difficulty as conditions were bad. However, once started, I got back through Sunday and very nearly, if not quit…
…ose value was 418. The scribe had calculated 418 as the clusion of an article callecl “The Revival of Magick” by the Master Therion. The last sentence reads: “Herein is Wisdom; let him that hath understanding count the number of the Beast; for it is the number of a man; and his number is six hundred and three score and six. TO ME! A 0HPION, the Great Wild Beast, has the value, according to the Greek System, of 666. It is, of course, the title of the Master Therion.

Sweet, I love you as I see him stagger On with hell’s worm a-nuzzling to his heart, With your last letter, like a poisoned dagger, Biting his blood, burning his bones apart. Ah! Sweet, each kiss I drink from you is warm With the dear life-blood of a man—a man! The scent of murder lures me, like a charm Tied by some subtlety Canidian. Ay ! as you suck my life out into bliss, Its holier joy is in the deadlier thirst That drank his life out into the abyss Of torture endless, endless and accurst. 1 Queen o…
