… enormous secret I have learned : When self-denial's furnace - flame has burned Through love , and all the agonizing bonds That hold the soul within its shell are turned To water weak ; Then may desires obtain the cypress crown they seek . It is only when we lose the cherished present , that it looms up through the mist of time as a glorious past ; and it is only when we have lost the body of corruption , that its soul rises sublime purifying all ; our personality purified by death the great Time Soul lies cradled in our own as the four lips of…

123 BELLADONNA My hearts blood hot upon your lips is reason For the ensanguine banners of their bliss ; My white soul that your malice took by treason Is the cold ardour in your cheek, and this My bower that was jasmine in its season Is all your yellow snakes of hair, that hiss And fasten all their fangs upon methese I knew, forget ; they leave your saint at ease. I have forgotten all these things, erotic While it was dark, while flesh corroded flesh With cancerous kisses acrid and exotic Like orchids, while the star-queen flung her mesh Over…

…ivolous and vain, O Zeus,” I cried, “ art thou to rise Out of Olympus’ ecstasies! Omnipotent! but to control The first breath of a human soul !—” The thunder rolled through heaven again, Void was the spring-delighted plain Of that gigantic phantasy. I turned to my Eurydice Even as she turned. The faint breath glows,— The lightning of a living rose. The bright eyes gleam—night’s spotless stars Glimmering through folded nenuphars. The red mouth moves, still to the word: “Yes, love!” and “yes, love!” Then I heard No sound and saw no sight—the worl…

We made the brave man's choice. We staked our all upon the single cast. Winning or dying, let the heart rejoice: England, stand fast! England, one soul of steel, one heart of oak, One voice of silver, sound thy trumpet-blast Pass round the watchword through the battle-smoke; England, stand fast!

…e Despair in purposeless caresses, dire Shames fang-wise fastened of the eternal snake. Is there no warmth where beauty is so bright? No soul still flickering in the lambent light Still shed from all the body’s excellence? No lamp unchidden of the utter night? Cannot my life be molten into thee Or thy death fall with rosier arms on me Or soul with soul commingle without sense, As the sun’s rays strike deep into the sea? O beauty of all beauty—central flower Of all the blossoms in the summer’s bower! Fades not all Nature in thy fall? the sun Not…

94 THE SOUL OF OSIRIS. The glory of the living day Shall shine among the dead. Thy faith shall have a holier task, thy strength a goodlier stead.” Then I withdrew the light Of mine own Godhead up, As stars that close with broken night Their adamantine cup. I sought the solar airs : my soul on its own tears might sup. For in the vast profound Still burns the rescuing sign ; Beyond all sight and sense and sound The symbol flames divine. For He shall make all life, all death, His solitary shrine.

I, through the wall Of impassable gloom, Apart from the sun, Pass as a ghost, Hail to ye, war…

THE EQUINOX 10. Before the Soul can hear, the image (man) has to be- come as deaf to roarings as to whispers, to cries of bellowing elephants as to the silvery buzzing of the golden firefly. In the text the image is explained as ‘Man,’ but it more properly refers to the consciousness of man, which con- sciousness is considered as being a reflection of the Non- Ego, or a creation of the Ego, according to the school of philosophy to which the Student may belong. 11. Before the Soul can comprehend and may remember, she must unto the Silent Speaker…

Have mastery o’er thy Soul, O seeker after truths un- dying, if thou would’st reach the goal. The pupil is also told to have mastery over his Soul, and again there is no indication as to what is meant by “Soul.” Bhikkhu Ananda Metteya once remarked that Theos- ophists were rather absurd to call themselves Buddhists, as the Buddhist had no Soul, and the Theosophist, not even content with having one, insisted on possessing seven dif-…

ILLUSION D’AMOUREUX in some mysterious orison that was subtler and stronger than prayer. “O beautiful, adorable, wonderful! O soul of wicked- ness! Supreme abomination, I invoke Thee! I worship Thee!

Manifest thy bliss to me, the soul that hungers for thy wisdom, as my body aches for thy kisses! “ Have not I wooed Thee and awaited Thee? But Thou comest not. By what spell may I conjure Thee?

Frail and pale, Her look’s surpassing loveliness Lulled its own light to fond distress, As if the soul were hardly yet Fit to remember or forget New-born! and though the goddess bade The nymph-bud blossom to a maid, And soulless immortality Reach to a soul, at last to die, For love’s own sake, bliss dearly bought For change’s altering coin ill-wrought, It seemed as though the soul were strange, Not fledged, not capable to range At random through the world of sense Opened so swift and so intense Unto the be…

Because no soul of man has ever crossed Again that River—the old fable's wrong ; .(Eneas came never to the ghostly side ! Was not the boat weighed with his body still ? Felt he the keen emotions of the dead ? Could he, the mortal and the warrior, Converse with Them, and understand ? Believe ! No soul has crossed in utter sympathy And yet returned ; because of this decree : No man can look upon the face of God ! Yet Moses looked upon His hinder parts. And I —yes, goddess ! in this passionate Life in our secret mountain, well I know Thy beauty, a…

By many a mental martyrdom Our sterile souls to Mary come. Who passeth through the surge and fire At last shall win to his desire.

Through Mary they shall not prevail ; And thou resigned in peace await Her peace at Her appointed date…
