148 THE EQUINOX Forgotten utterly as he. So let him lie unknown where he belongs, Ask of the murmuring sea, Or of the silent stars that roll so ceaselessly, Where he be fled,— It is enough ; one word is enough: he is dead. Rose! Ever-virgin Rose of the pulsing world, Whereover are thy petals curled,— It is for me alone to sing of thee, It is for me alone. Yea! let my songs of thy fame Be as flame, That shall enhance, maybe, The liberty Of one.— If one alone shall say : “It is not dead, the day, Not utterly dead while one man sings, Having been …

192 THE EQUINOX Boy, as you love me, I charge you to fold Pipe over pipe into gardens of gold Such as a god may be glad to behold. Seated on high in the zons of doom, Sucked as a seed to the infinite womb, Sealed is my soul in the sheath of its tomb. Boy, as you love me, I charge you to mould Pipe after pipe, till the heavens are rolled Back and are lost as a tale that is told! III Silence and darkness are weaving a web Broidered with Nothing at uttermost ebb :— Cover, oh cover the shaming of Seb! Fling the wide veil, O Nuit, on the shame |— Sh…

238 THE EQUINOX Far into the fire she cast the blood, And the flames grew twisted and red; Her breast heaved with her passion’s flood As a hollow-eyed ghost arose Like a cloud of stench from the rotting dead When a wind from a pest-house blows. She clasped the ghost to her skinny dugs,— No other love might she know,— The dead man squirmed at her panting hugs, But she had her passionate will, And a sobbing breeze began to blow From the top of the lonely hill. And then a dim grey streak of dawn Came, and the sad ghost fled, With staring sockets a…

THE EQUINOX says. He does not understand it, but he is not alone in this. Few understand the Qabalah; and therefore few talk sense about the Pentateuch.

THE EQUINOX To wish to be at the same time God and Devil is to absorb in one’s self the most absolute antinomy, the two most strained contrary forces; it is the wish to shut up in one’s self an infinite antagonism. It is to drink a poison which would extinguish the suns and consume the worlds. It is to put on the consuming robe of Deianira. It is to devote one’s self to the promptest and most terrible of all deaths. Woe to him who wishes to know too much! For if excessive and rash knowledge does not kill him it will make him mad. 1 An allusion …

188 THE EQUINOX Toward the Zenith stood a star, As of all worthiness and fitness The luminous eternal witness. So silent was the night, that I Stirred the grasses reverently And hid myself. The garden’s glow Darkened, and all the gold below Went out, and left the gold above To its sacrament of love, Save where, to sentinel my station, Gold lilies bowed in adoration. Had I not feared to move, I might Have hid my shame from such a night! Man is not worthy to intrude His soullessness on solitude; Yet God hath made it to befriend Pilgrims, that His…

44 THE EQUINOX Things beyond history and art In the tresses that tumble over her earl In what grim gloom did Satan get This child on what wood—nymph dishevelled? Whence was the wind that swayed the woods On their bestial beatitudes? Or what garden of rose and violet Lay under the moon wherein they revelled? She is like a poppy-petal. All the seas of sleep are hidden Under the languorous eyelids, whose Lashes are long and strong to bruise My heart where her lusts like hornets settle On sacred leaves, on flowers forbidden. She is like a drug of wo…
