Commentary on Title
In the first edition this Book is called L.1 L is the sacred 
letter in the Holy Twelve-fold Table which forms the triangle that 
stabilizes the Universe. See Liber 418.1 2 L is the letter of Libra, 
Balance, and “Justice”3 in the Tarot. This title should probably be 
AL, “El,” as the “L” was heard of the Voice of Aiwaz, not seen. 
AL is the true name of the Book, for these letters, and their 
number 31, form the Master Key to its Mysteries.
