D. S., one of the Teachers of The Master Therion, represents the Soul of the New Aon, whose Word is Do what thou wilt; for the satyr is the True Nature of every man and eve…

BALLADE OF THE NEW HUMOUR WHEN you at ninety paces Fill up a snipe with shot, Find dons with pretty faces, “ New” dramas with a plot, Find money on a Scot, Find beauty in a bloomer— We'll read your little lot And label it as humour.

You snigger at a sot, And label him as humour. Some pseudo-bloods at races, Some scholar’s polyglot, Some torpid Don’s grimaces, Some spouting Hottent…

…ecepts. It is apart of the game. Liber I vel Magi tells the Magus (here defined as the initiate charged with the duty of communicating a new truth to mankind) of what he may expect.

…fare. He found that The Book of the Law holds the keys to the Next Step in human evolution, and sets forth the spiritual principles of a New Aeon. He worked for decades to interpret its meaning for initiates and the general public, but rejected commentary after commentary as inadequate. He eventually concluded that he was too close to his subject to judge the value of his own commentaries, and entrusted the task to his best friend, Louis Wilkinson. Wilkinson (who wrote under the pen-name Louis Marlow) possessed impressive literary qualification…
