The Equinox (Volume I, Number V)

THE RITES OF ELEUSIS as the night sky—blue! Thou whose skin is of flaming orange, as though it burned in a furnace: Thee, Thee we invoke! Behold, I am yesterday, to-day, and the brother of The Morrowl Iam born again and again. Mine is the unseen force from which the Gods are sprung; that giveth life unto the dwellers in the watch—towers of the Universe. I am the charioteer of the East, Lord 01 the Past and the Future.

Mortadello

…tadello’s fate ! No hope. To bruise the head of the old snake, the State. No scope To loose on him the white fangs of my hate. I grope A night so dark, so trembling, so obscure, so fierce No light comes filtered from the dawn, so pure to pierce This web of woe. Ah ! God, I ache for turn of tide At ebb. Then let the moonrise kindle and burn beside The sunset. God ! if I have loved thee in truth, adored As none before me, given all my youth, dear Lord, To Thee, now hear me, hear me, hear me this one breath ! Give me this Mortadello to my kiss—and…

John St. John

…e magic goes well; good images and powerful, but I slack right off into sleep. It’s the hour for heroic measures or else to say : A good night’s rest, and start fresh in the morning! I suppose, as usual, I shall say the first and do the second. Have risen, washed, performed the ritual “Thee I invoke, the Bornless One " physically. The result fair. One gets better magical sight and feeling when one is performing a ritual in one’s Astral Body, so called. For one is on the same plane as the things one’s dealing with. If, however, serious work is wa…

Jephthah and Other Mysteries

88 MYSTERIES: From rocky palaces where gnomes delight To sport all springtime, where the brooding night With cataract is musical, and thrushes | Throb their young love beside the stream that rushes Headlong to beat its foamheads into snow, Where the sad swallow calls, and pale songs flow To match the music of the nightingale. There, when the pulses of the summer fail, The fiery flakes of autumn fall, and there Some warm perfection of the lazy air Swims through the purpling veins of lovers. Hark! A faint bird’s note, as if a silver spark Struck …

John St. John feels far from well. A stroll down the Boul’ Mich’ and avisit to M—’s studio improve matters a good deal. The cure continued. No worry about the Work, but an effort to put it altogether out of the mind. A cafe creme, forty minutes at the Academic Marcelle —a gruelling bout without the gloves—and J St. Jr is at the Luxembourg to look at the pretty pictures. The p…
