…orate of Indian toil ; A mockery of a self; outrun Its days and dreams, its strength and spoil, As runs the conquering counterfoil. Thou art not; thou the moon and sun, Thou the sole star in trackless night, The unguessed spaces one by one That mask their Sphinx, the horizon : Thou, these; and one above them, light, Light of the inmost heaven and hell :— Art changed and fallen and lost to sight, Who wast as waters of delight.

Ah! wert thou here, sweetheart, I would not sing These foolish songs. I only turn to rime When thou art absent ; for thine eyes would bring A light too dazzling for mine eyes; but…

It is quite impossible to obtain satisfactory results from this or any other system of divination unless the Art is perfectly required. It is the most sensitive, difficult and perilous branch of Magick. The necessary conditions, with a comprehensive comparative review of all important methods in use, are fully described and discussed in “Magick”, Chapter XVII. The abuse of divination has been responsible, more than any other cause, for the dis‐ credit into which the whole subject of Magick had fallen when the Master Therion undertook the task o…

On each occasion that thou art betrayed into doing that thou art sworn to avoid, cut thyself sharply upon the wrist or forearm with a razor; even as thou shouldst beat a disobedient dog.

Thou art married to Love, maybe, for Love sits weeping In my desolate heart, nor know I what can ail him, Save it be that thou art fled; immortal Love And mortal Death, and are ye separate still, Even as I and as the unknown Rose? Maybe the Rose is Death, and I am Love, Wed to young Life, and jealous of desire Of Death! Oh, in the cool green colonnades I have lingered late, even till the night’s slow fall, And I have heard the dying voices of day, The market-women’s chatter growing …

THE EQUINOX How shall I have speech of Thee, who know not Thy speak- ing? How shall I behold Thee, who art hidden in the darkness? Lo! I bend mine eyes before Thee, and no sign dost Thou vouchsafe me; I whisper love-words before Thee, and I know not if Thou hear me, Thou who art the darling of the Night and of the Silence; Yellow art Thou as the sunlight through the corn-fields, Bright as the sun-dawn on the snow-clad mountains, Slow as the voice of the great green gliding River.

But now the Word of Me the Beast is this; not only art thou Woman, sworn to a purpose not thine own; thou art thyself a star, and in thyself a purpose to thyself. Not only mother of men art thou, or whore to men; serf to their need of Life and Love, not sharing in their Light and Liberty; nay, thou art Mother and Whore for thine own pleasure; the Word I say to Man I say to thee no less: “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law”!
