Shot his Chandra.*6—Anglicé, shot the moon. 380. The subtle devilish omission.5'— But what are we to say of Christian dialecticians who quote ‘‘ All things work together for good”’ out of its context, and call this verse ‘‘ Chris- tian optimism ?"’ See Caird’s ‘‘ Hegel.”’ Hegel knew how to defend himself, though. As Goethe wrote of him: ‘* They thought the master too Inclined to fuss and finick. The students’ anger grew To frenzy Paganinic.* They vowed to make him rue His work in Jena’s clinic. They came, the unholy crew, The mystic and the cynic: He had scoffed at God's battue, The flood for mortal’s sin—Ic- thyosaurian Waterloo! They eyed the sage askew ; They searched him through and through With violet rays actinic. They asked him ‘ Wer bist du?’ He answered slowly ‘ Bin ich?’ ” 387. The Fish.°8—Because of ix@us, which means Fish, And very aptly symbolises Christ, —Ring and Book (The Pope), ll. 89, go. 395. Dharma,®»®—Consult the Tripitaka. 409. [cannot trace the chain.’-—' How vain, indeed, are human calculations !'"’—7he Auto- biography of a Flea, p. 136. 112. /adle-thing.51—" Ere the stuff growa ring-thing right to wear.”— Zhe Ring and the Book, i. 17. ‘* This pebble-thing, o’ the boy-thing.” —CALVERLEY, The Cock and the Bull. 442. Caird.®—See his ‘‘ Hegel.” 446. Says Huxley.3—See '‘ Ethics and Evolu- tion.” 459. ledrastl.4— The Otz Chiim of the Scandinavians, 467. Ladies League.i—Mrs, J. S. Crowley says: ‘‘ The Ladies’ League Was Formed For The Promotion And Defence Of The Reformed Faith Of The Church Of England.”” (The capitals are hers.) I think we may accept this statement. She probably knows, and has no obvious reasons for misleading. 487. Sattva.“6—The Buddhists, denying an Atman or Soul (an idea of changeless, eternal, knowledge, being, and bliss) represent the fictitious Ego of a man (or a dog) as a tem- porary agglomeration of particles. Reincar- nation only knocks off, as it were, some of the corners of the mass, so that for several births the Ego is constant within limits; hence the possibility of the ‘‘ magical memory.” The ‘‘Sattva’’ is this agglomeration. See my * Paganini, a famous violinist.
