AMPHORA But if Thou wilt let both live merrily, Two sparks of light in this our glamour dim ! Still let Thy servant grow more like to Thee, The child more like to Him. Amen. 73
Amy K . Clarke . Light could not veil it, Nor darkness dim , Flesh but receive it Vision of Him . Deep sunk His answer , The Word that sufficed Out of her Body Cometh His Christ .
…lled , Whose face is like an emerald ; Whose crown is indigo as night ; Smaragdine snakes about thy brow Twine , and the disc of flaming light Is on thee , seated in the prow Of the Sun's bark , enthroned above With lapis-lazuli for love And ruby for enormous force Chosen to seat thee , thee girt round With leopard's pell , and golden sound Of planets choral in their course ! O thou self-formulated sire ! Self -master of thy dam's desire ! Thine eyes blaze forth with fiery light ; Thine heart a secret sun of flame ! I adore the insuperable migh…
…his verse I hear the notes of that divine harmony which is the eternal hymn of beauty? Poetry is pure as the Sun: it spreads its veil of light over the errors of humanity. Woe to him who would lift the veil in order to perceive things ugly! The Council of Trent decided that it was permissible for wise and prudent persons to read the books of the ancients, even those which were obscene, on account of the beauty of the form. A statue of Nero or of Heliogabalus made like a masterpiece of Phidias, would it not be an absolutely beautiful and absolut…

… be thy son, let us speak of the Embassy to the King thy Brother. 12. Then was there silence. Speech had done with us awhile. There is a light so strenuous that it is not perceived as light. 13. Wolf’s bane is not so sharp as steel; yet it pierceth the body more subtly. 14. Even as evil kisses corrupt the blood, so do my words devour the spirit of man. 15. I breathe, and there is infinite dis-ease in the spirit. 16. As an acid eats into steel, as a cancer that utterly corrupts the body; so am I unto the spirit of man. 17. Ishall not rest until …
…ll, be it so. O wizard, by this strength Thou hast availed in deepest Hell at length. I grant thy prayer. Eurydice be given To the sweet light and pleasant air of heaven ! Even on this wise. With Hermes for a guide Up the dread steeps there followeth thee thy | bride, And thou before them singing. If thou yearn Towards her, if thy purpose change or turn While in these realms; if thou thy face revert ; That shall be hostage unto me for hurt Of further magic: she shall fade and flee A phantom frail throughout Eternity, Driven on my winds, adrift …
… HOURS . | ROSE from dreamless hours and sought the morn 1 That beat upon my window : from the sill I watched sweet lands , where Autumn light new - born Swayed through the trees and lingered on the hill . If things so lovely are , why labour still To dream of something more than this I see ? Do I remember tales of Galilee , I who have slain my faith , and freed my will ? Let me forget dead faith , dead mystery , Dead thoughts of things I cannot comprehend . Enough the light mysterious in the tree , Enough the friendship of my chosen friend . 7…
…ible God, Who makest the gods and death To tremble before Thee :— I, I adore thee! Appear on the throne of Ra! Open the ways of the Khu! Lighten the ways of the Ka! The ways of the Khabs run through To stir me or to still me! Aum! let it fill me! 38. So that thy light is in me; and its red flame is as a sword in my hand to push thy order. There is a secret door that I shall make to establish thy way in all the quarters (there are the adorations, as thou hast written) as it is said: The Light is mine ; its rays consume Me: I have made a secret doo…
…orld afresh ! The silence of my heart is one With memory’s insatiate night ; I hardly dare to hope the sun. I seek the darkness, not the light. O Lord Harpocrates,? be still The moveless centre of my will ! My sorrows are more manifold Than His that bore the sins of man. My sins are like the starry fold, My hopes their desolation wan. O Nuit,’ the starry one, arise, And set thy starlight in my skies ! In darkness, in the void abyss, I grope with vain despairing arms. The silence as a serpent is, The rustle of the world alarms. O Horus,® Light i…
…n thy left hand, While with thy right thou reachest out to grip The Graal of God, and tilt it to thy lip? Lo! all the whirring shafts of Light, a web Wherein the Tides of Being flow and ebb, One heart-beat, pulsing the Eternal stress, Extremes that cancel out in Nothingness. Light thrills through Light, the spindle of desire, Cross upon Cross of elemental Fire; Life circles Life, the Rose all flowers above, And in their intermarriage they are Love. Lo! on each spear of Splendour burns a world Revolving, whirling, crying aloud; and curled About …
…I said, Let the darkness cover me; and behold, I am compassed about with the blackness that hath no name. O thou, who hast cast down the light into the earth, so must thou do for ever. And the light of the sun shall not shine upon thee, and the moon shall not lend thee of her lustre, and the stars shall be hidden, because thou art passed beyond these things, beyond the need of these things, beyond the desire of these things. What I thought were shapes of rocks, rather felt than seen, now appear to be veiled Masters, sitting absolutely still and…

Light is the fire which serves for the Great Work under the form of electricity. 3°. The human will directs the vital light by means of the nervous system. In our days this is called Magnetism. 4°.

…sworn : Toward the night, toward the dawn ! Behold the moon that fails above, The stars that pale before the sun! How far, those figures light as love - . That laughing to the mountains run! Behold the flames of hair that leap Above her forehead mild and deep! She turns to bless her people still : So, passes to the golden gate Where snow burns fragrant on the hill, Where for her step those fountains wait Of light and brilliance that shall rise To greet her beauty lover-wise. The silver west fades fast, the skies | Are blue and silver overhead ;…
… the sacramental sun Its sword unsheath, And bid their horrid carnival be done, And smite beneath In their cold gasping valleys, and bid light Break the battalions of the angry night. That sword that smote from Heaven was so keen, Its silver blade No angel’s sight, no fairy’s eye hath seen, No tender maid With subtle insight may behold its sheen With light inlaid ; But God, who forged it, breathed upon its point, And His pure unction did the hilt anoint. Within the poet’s hand he laid the sword : With reverent ear The poet listened to His word …

I have been dreaming that [I left this place, Escaped with life, wooed my Elizabeth; My dreams are always strange in Venusberg, [ Taking his harp. Sing thee again, dear lady, of our joy? Listen, then, listen! For some sombre finger, Other than mine, impulses on the string. This tune I knew not! See, the str…
I see through the moonlight that covers (As a mist on the mountain) your head The flame of your heart as a lover’s Shine out in your face and be shed, A ruby that flashes and hovers and droops and is dead. As a saint in a vision half hidden I see the sweet face in a mist, A nimbus of glory unbidden That shades you or shows as you list. But I, as a bridegroom, unchidden, may kiss—and am kissed. In the light and the manifest splendour That shows you in darkness a bride, Pale blossom of moonlight and slender, A lily that sways in the tide, A star …

… a man are but Ejidola, and this true creative force is the Virya of which we are now speaking. 50. Thy Soul-gaze centre on the One Pure Light, the Light that is free from affection, and use thy golden key. This Virya is the one pure light spoken of in this verse.
