THE KEY OF THE MYSTERIES CHAPTER II THE POWER OF THE WORD It is the word which creates forms; and forms in their turn react upon the word, in order to modify it and com- plete it. Every word of truth is a beginning of an act of justice. One asks if man may sometimes be necessarily driven to evil. Yes, when his judgment is false, and consequently his word unjust. But one is responsible for a false judgment as for a bad action. What falsifies the judgment is selfishness and its unjust vanities. The unjust word, unable to realize itself by creatio…

44 AMBERGRIS Made luminous with light of power. I seal each æons period, And wait the moment and the hours. Aloof, alone, unloved, I stand With love and worship in my hand. I commune with the Gods : I wait Their summons, and I fire the brand I speak their Word : and there is Fate. I know no happiness, no pain, No swift emotion, no disdain, No pits : but the boundless light Of the Eternal Love, unslain, Flows through me to redeem the night. Mine is a sad slow life : but I, I would not gain release, and die A moment ere my task be done. To falte…

…O MAY XI ‘She never lets me from her sight an hour. On one excuse, five minutes and no more! ‘And then—even then !—she fears to lose her power. T hear her heavy breathing at the door: She listens. “What's he doing?” One confesses That one must leave you to a pair of guesses. r, she will send me out, some time she feels She is safe, and when my back is turned, she runs Through all my pockets eagerly, and steals Each scrap of writing. She was human once : Her thirty years of whoring have snowed under All traces of it; and, by God, no wonder| She …

…ks the lamen. Once again Fearless I front the awful shape before me, Fearless I speak his Name. My trembling brain Vibrates that Word of Power. I cry amain : “ Down, Dweller of the Darkness, and adore me ! I am thy Master, and thy God ! Behold The Rose of Ruby and the Cross of Gold ! “ I am thy Saviour ! ” At the kindling word Up springs the dawn-light in the broken bowls ; Up leaps the glittering circle. Then I heard A hoarse shrill voice, as if some carrion bird Shrieked, mightier than the storm that rocks and rolls Through desolation : “ Tho…

O bear me far Up and up yet to where thy sacred star Burns in its brilliance ! Thence the storm be shed A passion of great calm about this head, This head no more a poets .

…ons. St. Paul had not been intriguing with an ambitious general. Each came back poor; each came back alone. What was the nature of their power? What happened to them in their absence? History will not help us to solve the problem, for history is silent. We have only the accounts given by the men themselves. It would be very remarkable should we find that these accounts agree. Of the great teachers we have mentioned Christ is silent; the other four tell us something; some more, some less. Buddha goes into details too elaborate to enter upon in th…

…an hath noted in my brain The knowledge of my mystic spouse. I watch the centuries wax and wane. Poor, in the kingdom of strong gold, My power is swift and uncontrolled. Simple, amid the maze of lies; A child, among the cruel old, I plot their stealthy destinies. So patient, in the breathless strife ; So silent, under scourge and knife ; So tranquil, in the surge of things ; I bring them from the well of Life, Love, from celestial water-springs ! From the shrill fountain-head of God I draw out water with the rod Made luminous with light of powe…

In part three she, coming secretly to him, warns him he must destroy the three vices, faith, hope, and charity. This he does easily, save the love of the figure of the Crucified ; but at last conquering this, he attains. These were never written.—R. P. L.]

… elusive, and luminous; Saturn is material, slow, heavy, obstinate, and obscure. The eight Wands are still crossed, showing the enormous power of the completed en‐ ergies of Fire; but they have lost their patents of nobility. Their ends seem more like claws; they lack the authority and intelligence shown in the earlier cards; and in front are the two formidable Dorjes of the Two of Wands, but lengthened to bars. The whole picture suggests Oppression and repression. It is a stupid and obstinate cruelty from which there is no escape. It is a Will…
