…the corn ; Strong glorious loves Of its being are born. Dim shadows of groves Of Demeter adorn The waves and the woods of the earth, the heart of the mother forlorn. Caves curved of the wind, Deep hollows of earth, Whence the song of the blind Old prophet had birth, The caves that confined Deep music of mirth, Thy caves, O my mother, are these not a gem in thy virginal girth?

…ause. I height Don Quixote, I live on peyote, marihuana, morphine and cocaine. I never knew sadness but only a madness that burns at the heart and the brain. I see each charwoman ecstatic, inhuman, angelic, demonic, divine, Each wagon a dragon, each beer mug a flagon that brims with ambrosial wine. I went to the city and found it a pity the devil was playing at hell, And ten million mortals had entered hell's portals and thought they were all doing well. I said: "See, dear people, on every church steeple an imp of the devil at play, See ghouls …

…s better than all things: if under the night stars in the desert thou presently burnest mine incense before me, invoking me with a pure heart, and the Serpent flame therein, thou shalt come a little to lie in my bosom. For one kiss wilt thou then be willing to give all; but whoso gives one particle of dust shall lose all in that hour. Ye shall gather goods and store of women and spices; ye shall wear rich jewels; ye shall exceed the nations of the earth in splendour & pride; but always in the love of me, and so shall ye come to my joy.

…enlightened, perfect eyes these visions pass, Pass and cease, poor shadows frightened, leave no stain upon the glass. One last stroke, O heart-free master, one last certain calm of will, And the maker of Disaster shall be stricken and grow still. Burn thou to the core of matter, to the spirit’s utmost flame, Consciousness and sense to shatter, ruin sight and form and name!

… ... Who shall under stand , who shall express God ? What is it that comes thus by moments to shine into the eyes of my soul and make my heart beat with fear and love ? It is something quite other than myself , and for this reason I am frozen with terror ; it is something identical with myself , and therefore I am kindled with love .1 Similarly John Tauler writes : The more the Bridegroom loves the Bride , the more bitter will be the cup he gives her to drink . “ The cup is that she is to cease from all her own thoughts . . . for she can take p…

One must never forget that a child will be born of that deed. One must choose the environment appropriate to the particular child which one wills to create. One must make sure that the conscious will is written, on the pure waters of a mind unstirred, in letters of fire, by the Sun of the Soul. One must not create confusion in the talisman, which belongs to the Silent Self, by lett…

Commentary: This verse brings out what is a fact in psychol ogy, the necessary connection between fear, sorrow, and failure. To will and to dare are closely linked Powers of the Sphinx, and they are based on—to know.

She sat and gazed upon me all day long. Sometimes she held my hands; then she would weep, And then stoop tenderly and kiss my lips, Or lull me with some chaste and gentle song Of angel love. Night’s plume its dew fall drips As she still sits and watches me to sleep. 1 Cuckold.
