We clung still closer , till the soul ran through Body to body , twined like sunny snakes , Sinlessly knowing we were man and wife.2 Alice , still fearful , foresees the end ; such love as theirs is too supernal to be platonic ; she flies in vain ; for she has to console her sad lover with the truth . The storm - clouds gather on the twenty - fifth day : Mouth unto mouth ! O fairest ! mutely lying , Fire lambent laid on water , -0 ! the pain …

…y master Him. Here I would have thee to mark well how these our Symbols are cognate, and flow forth the one into the other, because each Soul partaketh in proper Measure of the Mystery of Holiness, and is kin with his Fellow.

…lligenda (More things to be Understood concening this) ARK then, o my Son, how in the Ancient Books of Magick it is Man that selleth his Soul unto the Devil, but Woman that maketh Pact with him. For she hath constantly the Wit and Power to arrange Things at his Bidding, and she payeth this Price of his Alliance. But a Man hath one Jewel, and, bartering this, he becometh the Mockery of Satanas.

…lust more fierce-fantastic, than aught mortal. And this? This real loss of a real chastity? This degradation not of the body, but of the soul? This white-hot curling flame—ice cold about her heart? This jagged lightning that tore her? This tarantula of slime that crawled up her spine? She felt the blood running from her breasts, and its foam at her mouth.

… men and things was truly to be envied, yet one who sold his birthright for a mess of beastlier pottage than ever Esau guzzled, who sold soul and body to Satan for sheer love of sin, whose mere lust of perversion is so intense that it seems to absorb every other emotion and interest. Never since God woke light from chaos has such a tragedy been un-rolled before men, step after step toward the lake of Fire ! At his house all his writings were seized, and, it is believed, destroyed. The single most fortunate exception is that of a superbly jewell…

Swept , swept away are pope and cardinal, Palace and city !

… that in diluting beyond measure, or in coagulating suddenly, the plastic medium of a subject, it is possible to loose the body from the soul. It is sometimes sufficient to arouse a violent anger, or an overmastering fear in anyone, to kill him suddenly. The habitual use of magnetism usually puts the subject who abandons himself to it at the mercy of the magnetizer. When communication is well-established, and the magnetizer can produce at will slumber, insensibility, catalepsy, and so on, it will only require a little further effort to bring on…
