John St. John

]ΟΗ Ν ST. JOHN 3.35. I have been asleep at good deal——one long dream in which P t, Lord M y of B—n and my wife are all staying with me in my mother‘s house. My room the old room, with one page torn out—for I conceived it as part of a book, somehow! Oh such a lot of this dream! Most of it clearly due to obvious sources—I don’t see where Lord M y comes in. Very likely he is dead. I have had that happen now and again. [P.S.—This was not the case] The dream changed, too, to a liner; where Japanese stole my pipe in a series of adventures of an annoy…

…elf in serious trouble of body and mind, the shadows of his soul, that is sick unto death. For “ where are now their gods?” Where is the Lord, the Lord Adonai? The beast feels decidedly better; but whether he is more concentrated one may doubt. Honestly, he is now so blind that he cannot tell! Perhaps a “cafe, cognac, et Cigare” may tune him up to the point of either going back to work, or across Paris to the Hammam. He will make the experiment, reading through his proofs the while. One good thing; the Chittam is moving slowly. The waiters all …

Songs of the Spirit

There steals through my coldness a fire, Between my slow words is a sword, One lit by the heart of desire, One sharp in the hand of the lord ; To these that sink, sleep, and expire, your welcome accord. With winds and white seas for your raiment Your stature immutably stands : My love, with no claim, as a claimant Came seeking out truth in the sands, Found truth, and must place in poor payment this book in your hands. 109

Moonchild

Great General Staff!" "Yes, you should certainly do that!" answered Lord Antony, laughing. [310] "Then let's stroll up the Boulevard. Dawn's breaking. We'll get a cafe- brioche at the Rotonde, and then I'll tyrannize my tailor, and get off." They went out into the cold morning air. Three hundred yards away, outside the Sante prison, a small crowd had collected. The centre of attraction seemed to be a framework, two narrow uprights crowned with a cross-bar where a triangular piece of metal glittered in the pale twilight. "Peace hath her victorie…

Amphora

AMPHORA XII MOTHER of Our LORD, we ask Thy potent prayer in our distress ; We nerve us for the royal task And sink supine in feebleness. The Eye of Heaven to us is blind ; Time is so sad, and earth so grey ; But by Thine influence we find One steadfast star to shew the way. Thine is the sympathetic balm That eases from Life’s bruising rod ; And Thine the meek eternal calm That brings our souls in tune with GOD Amen. O 79

You would think that one who like myself has the Sun, the Lord of His Horoscope, in Libra, with Venus who rules that sign in close conjunction with him, with Saturn trine, Uranus sex tile , Mars square and Luna Quincunx to him, would wear the Golden Mean as a breastplate, flaunt it on my banneret, quarter it on my escutcheon, and grave it on the two-edged blade of my thrice trusty falchion!
