this sort; it is one part of Sulphuric in I don't remember how 
many million parts of water that is enough to tum blue 
litmus red; and even with our own gross apparatus we can 
arrange for a ten-thousandth part of a grain to send a scale 
down with a bang. Think of a roulette ball hovering on the 
edge at the end of a long spin! Think of Buridan's ass! 
Love is the law. love under will.

P.S. One ought, perhaps, to give an outline of how these facts 
work out in the social system of Thelema. 
It may be useful to classify women in three groups, (I 
exclude the fourth, which anatomically woman, does not 
function in that capacity: the "spinster") corresponding to 
Isis, Osiris and Horus. 
The Isis-Class consists of the mother-type. To them the 
man is no more than the necessary creator and sustainer of 
her children. 
The Osiris-Class comprises those women who are devoted 
to their man qua man, and to his career. Her children, if any, 
she values as reproductions of the Beloved; they carry him on 
into futurity by virtue of her deathless love. 
The Horus-Class is composed of those women who remain 
children, the play-girls, who live only for pleasure. To them a 
child is dull at the best, at the worst a nuisance. 
Each of these classes has its qualities and its defects; each 
should be held in equal, although dissimilar, honour. 
And what, you ask, has the man got to say about all this? 
Nothing simpler; all women are subordinate to his True Will. 
Only the Osiris-Class, provided he can find one of them, are 
of more than transient use to him; and even in this case, he 
must be careful to avoid being ensnared. 
But the really important issue is the recognition of each 
type of True Will in woman.
