Aleister Crowley . For secret symbols on my brow , And secret thoughts within , Compel eternity to Now , Draw the Infinite within . Light is extended . I and Thou Are as they had not been . So on my head the light is one, Unity manifest ; A star more splendid than the sun Burns, for my crowned crest : Burns as the murmuring orison Of waters in the west. What angel from the silver gate Flames to my fierier face ? What angel, as I contemplate The unsubstantial space , Move with my lips the laws of Fate That bind earth 's carapace ? No angel, but the very light And fire and spirit of Her, Unmitigated , eremite , The unmanifested myrrh , Ocean , and night that is not night, The mother -mediator .
