H . O . Meredith . First man creating his first God In his own image dimly known , More treacherous than the quaking sod , And harder hearted than the stone ! Tiger and snake who hunted me , The thunder crash , the swollen stream , I worshipped - wanton cruelty , Mad perils of a maniac dream . I peopled earth a new found hell With the new devil of my soul , That thought might find a place to dwell And the dire chaos seem a whole . For strange I saw my first sun rise And felt his warmth upon my flesh And screaming , with distorted eyes Fled from…

Even so' tis nothing God to have proved Mid colours of the day , Nothing to find his footsteps in the stars : For these are bright , Filling our soul with vintage of delight , Poured from inexhaustible jars Quenching dismay . But if man found him in the infinity Beyond the infinities of time and place , The space that is no space , The time that is no time , A Law where Law is not That were a God of certainty , To make each partic…

I sate upon the mossy promontory Where the cascade cleft not his mother rock, But swept in whirlwind lightning foam and glory, Vast circling with unwearying luminous shock To lure and lock Marvellous eddies in its wild caress ; And there the solemn echoes caught the stress, The strain of that impassive tide, Shook it and flung it high and wide, Till all the air took fire from that melodious roar ; All the mut…

Commentary: The God of Vengeance is in Greek O AAAZTQP, Aleister. For some reason which I have not been able to trace, this God became Alastor, the Desert Daemon of the Rabbins, then later the “Spirit of Solitude” of Shelley.1 The attri bution is appropriate enough, the root being apparently AAAO- MAI, “I wander.” The idea of “Going” is dreadful to t…

… to do great things. Of course, it may be said that there is a fallacy in the argument; it may be true that all these great people “ saw God,” but it does not follow that every one who “ sees God ” will do great things. This is true enough. In fact, the majority of people who claim to have “seen God,” and who no doubt did “see God” just as much as those whom we have quoted, did nothing else. But perhaps their silence is not a Sign of their weakness, but of their strength. Perhaps these “great ” men are the failures of humanity; 1 The massacres …

…od proved unequal to the task. This form of dishonesty reaches its climax in the expurgating of the classics. " The Bible is the Word of God, written by holy men, as they were inspired by the Holy Ghost. But we will cut out those passages which we think unsuitable." " Shakespeare is our greatest poet — but, of course, he is very dreadful." " No one can surpass the lyrics of Shelley, but we must pretend that he was not an atheist." Some translators could not bear that the heathen Chinese should use the word Shang Ti, and pretended that it did no…
