…ool,” they laughed back—nay, even his maiden queen. For she would not any should know thereof. Yet were all right, both he and they. But truth ran quickly about ; for that was the House of Truth; and Mercury stood far from the Hammer of Sun. Yet the Suggler was ever in the Sign of Sorrow, and the Fig Tree bor. was not far.

Art proves itself by itself, is radiant with its own splendour, is unique and eternal like beauty. The true religion is beautiful, and it is by that divine character that it imposes itself on the respect of science, and obtains the assent of reason.

Now already are we well assured by Science how the Death of the Sun is in Truth but the Shifting of a Shadow; and in this Æon (o my son, I lift up my Voice and I make Prophecy!) so shall it be proven as to Death. For the Body of Man is but his Shadow, it cometh and goeth even as the tides of Ocean; and he only is in Darkness who is hidden by that Shadow from the Light of his true Self.

It is no figure of boy’s speech, Lover’s enthusiasm, rhyme Magniloquent of bard, to reach Truth through the husk of space and time: No truth is more devout than this: ‘€In you I live: I live in you.” Had Latmos not known Artemis, Where were the faint lights of that dew Of Keats?
