…ed ! Hear me, Apollo ! Let thy fierce fingers sweep the lyre forgotten ! Recall the ancient glory of thy chanted Music that thrilled the hearts of men, and haunted Life to adore thee ! Cleanse thou our market-places misbegotten ! Fire in my heart and music to my pæan Lend, that my song bow, past the empyrean, Phœbus, before thee ! 83
THE VISION AND THE VOICE For the blood of my heart is like a warm bath of myrrh and ambergris; bathe thyself therein. The blood of my heart is all gathered upon my lips if I kiss thee, burns in my finger- tips if I caress thee, burns in my womb when thou art caught up into my bed. Mighty are the stars; mighty is the sun; mighty is the moon; mighty is the voice of the ever-living one, and the echoes of his whisper are the thunders of the dissolution of the worlds. But my silence is mightier than they. Close up the worlds like unto a weary house;…
… We certainly had been punishing the snow. Five sniffs! it wasn’t much in our young lives after a fortnight. Gwendolen Otter says :— ‘“‘ Heart of my heart, in the pale moonlight, Why should we wait till to-morrow night ? ”

…edge of Magick, but especially the Formula of Tetragrammaton, clearly stated and explained in Magick, Chapter III. Combine this with the heart of Chapter XII and you've got it! But there is another point at issue. This incidentally, is where the "automatic safeguards" come in. "Thou hast no right but to do thy will" (AL, I: 42) means that to "go awhoring after strange" purposes can only be disastrous. It is possible, in chemistry, to provoke an endothermic reaction; but that is only asking for trouble . The product bears within its own heart th…
…ce I look. Mother of God ! be with me in success, Abide with me if peradventure fail These faint songs, murmurs of a summer gale That my heart clothes within a mortal dress ; And with thy sympathy, their bliss or bale Shall be too light to shake my happiness.
…the blue impassive South And looking over lordly lands. Oh! high above the envious sea This fortress dominates the tides ; There, ill at heart, the chivalry Of strong Sir Palamede abides. Now comes irruption from the folk That live by murder: day by day The good knight strikes his deadly stroke; The vultures claw the attended prey. But day by day the heathen hordes Gather from dreadful lands afar, A myriad myriad bows and swords, As clouds that blot the morning star. Soon by an arrow from the sea The Lady of Palamede is slain ; His son, in sall…
212 THE EQUINOX You were a Chinese god, I an offering fair, As we entered the Garden of Allah, Το sing our holy prayer. Entered with hearts bowed low, Yet I heard a voice that cried: For he is the god of the Sacrifice, You are the crucified. It was all make—believe, A foolish game of play, Our garden of Allah A drawing-room, Our Chinese god of clay, Strings of bruises for pearls, Tears for forget-me—nots, And a deadly pain Of the sickening shame W'atehing the fading spots, As quickly they faded, The heart of me faded as well, Until nothing is lef…

EPILOGUE Serene of heart I reached the mountain top and well From there could watch the city in her mag- nitude, Her brothels, pest-house, prison, purgatory, hell, Where like a flower flourishes all vicious brood. You well know, Satan, fount of soul- devouring harms, I went not there to shed vain tears in dolor- ous mood, But, like a shrewd old lecher in his womans arms, To drink deep of the lures of this lewd be- hemoth, Who keeps my youth aflame with necro- mantic charms. Whether past noon youre still in bed, asth- matic, wroth And torpid, …

…pon the horror of the loneliness of The First. No man shall look upon his face and live. And thou hast seen his eyes, and understood his heart, for the voice of the ape is the pulse of his heart and the labouring of his breast. Go, therefore, and rejoice, for thou art the prophet of the Aeon arising, wherein He is not. Give thou praise unto thy lady Nuit, and unto her lord Hadit, that are for thee and thy bride, and the winners of the ordeal X. And with that we are come to the wall of the Aethyr, and there is a little narrow gate, and he pushes…
…f ocean grows as still as death, The breezes swoon for very bliss, The sacrament of true love's kiss Accomplishes: I feel a pain Stab my heart through and sleep again, And I am in thine arms for ever. * * * ° e There came a tutor, who had never Known the response of love to love; He wandered through the woods above The river, and came suddenly Where he lay sleeping. Purity And joy beyond the speech of man Dwelt on his face, divinely wan. “ How beautiful is sleep!” he saith. Bends over him. There is no breath, No sound, no motion: it is death. A…
…n men’s love made glorious to behold, Men clad with sunshine of fair women’s smiles, Fountains of purity and fadeless youth. With a glad heart I turned my steps to seek Their starry groves and streams. A scroll unfurled A cloud from heaven : “ This people loveth truth.” I rose and hid my tear-bespangled cheek. Woe’s me! For I had dreamed it was the world.

…that with those four letters you can get a complete set of rules for doing everything, both for white magic and black. And now I see the heart of the rose again. I see the face of him that is the heart of the rose, and in the glory of that face Iam ended. My eyes are fixed upon his eyes; my being is sucked up through my eyes into those eyes. And I see through those eyes, and lo! the universe, like whirling sparks of gold, blown like a tempest. I seem to swell out again into him. My consciousness fills the whole Aethyr. I hear the cry NIA, ringi…
… bound round with brass, and it had been dipped in deadly poison. Then I fitted the white arrow to the string, and I shot it against the heart of Eros, and though I shot with all my force, it fell harmlessly from his side. But at that moment the black arrow was thrust through mine own heart. I am filled with fearful agony. And the child smiles, and says: Although thy shaft hath pierced thee not, although the envenomed barb hath struck thee through; yet I am slain, and thou livest and triumphest, for I am thou and thou art I. With that he disapp…
…ulfill himself to the utmost. 6 (Illustration: A function imperfectly performed injures, not only itself, but associated with it. If the heart is afraid to beat for fear of disturbing the liver, the liver is starved for blood, and avenges itself on the heart by upsetting digestion, which disorders respiration, on which cardiac welfare depends.) 27.

Seest thou my soul in dreams, dear ? No. Ah ! the fair days of joyaunce and of gree When our mouths kissed, ah kissed ! Maybe ! How blue the sky was, as our hope was clear ! Hope has gone down to Hells nadir. So in the foolish alleys they conferred, And only midnight overheard.
