Notes by the creator of this electronic edition 
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law. 
Liber Aleph was written over the winter 1917-18 and first advertised 
for publication in the “Præmonstrance of A∴A∴” in Equinox III 
(1).  It is addressed to Charles Stansfeld Jones, Frater Achad 
(O.I.V., Parzival, O.I.V.V.I.O., Arctæon, &c.), who had not long 
previously taken the Oath of the Abyss and declared himself 8°=38 
(without bothering to go through the grades Zelator to Adeptus 
Exemptus inclusive first), and whom at the time Crowley believed 
to be his “Magical Son.”  An abortive edition was advertised 
around 1938 as Equinox III (4); it was finally published post-
humously as Equinox III (6) in 1962, edited by Karl Germer and his 
Brazilian disciple Marcelo Motta.  A corrected edition edited by 
“Hymenæus Beta” was published by Samuel Weiser in 1991. 
This e-text of Liber Aleph was based on one in Internet circulation, 
key-entered in 1988 e.v. by W. E. Heidrick for O.T.O.  It has been 
conformed to the 1991 edition; in the Internet version a paragraph 
of chapter a was omitted, the chapters from Zk to the end were 
mis-numbered, the last two run together, and the final paragraph 
of the last chapter omitted; this may perpetuate errors in the first 
edition, I am not sure.  These and a large number of minor 
typographical errors (I suspect it was originally typed on a keyboard 
with a dodgy ‘t’ key) have been fixed in the present edition, 
although further proof-reading might still be useful.  The original 
editor’s introduction and the “Prolegomena” and indices from the 
1991 edition are here omitted.  Translations of Latin chapter titles, 
where they differ significantly from those in the 1991 edition, are 
by the present editor. 
Love is the law, love under will.
