… Wolfram as my best work in either sentiment or melody. As a quid pro quo I give you all full permission to conclude your review of this book by quoting from Act III. " Forget this nightmare!" I must express my great sense of gratitude to Oscar Eckenstein, Gerald Kelly, and Allan MacGregor, who have severally helped me in the work of revision, which has extended over more than a year of time and nearly twenty thousand miles of space.

Not knowing that such a book exists, one might yet induce some one who knows of it to offer a copy.

…that the whole of my life's work, were it multiplied a thousand fold, would not be worth one tithe of the value of a single verse of The Book of the Law. I think you should have a copy of The Equinox of the Gods and make The Book of the Law your constant study. Such value as my own work may possess for you should amount to no more than an aid to the interpretation of this book. 2. It may be that later on you will want a copy of Eight Lectures on Yoga so I am putting a copy aside for you in case you should want it. 3. With regard to the O.T.O., …

…ophe can be averted. " Somehow I fear they won 't. "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law." Then I issued a prospectus for the book , giving the facts as to previous publications and their results, and leaving blank a space after "The Fourth Publication" to wait the event. The First Publication nine months before the outbreak of the Balkan War, which broke up the Near East. When this was done it was done without proper perfection.

The secret is still a secret to Us. “And thy comment upon this the Book of the Law shall be printed beautifully in red ink and black upon beau- tiful paper made by hand;” i.e. explain the text ‘lest there be folly’ as it says above, CCXX. I. 36. “And to each man and woman that thou meetest, were it but to dine or to drink at them, it is the Law to give. Then they shall chance to abide in this bliss or no; it isnoodds.

The basis of this theology is given in Liber CCXX, AL vel Legis which forins Part IV of this Book 4.

Buddhism sat rather tightly on shoulders broadened by responsibility, and the first part of Book IV. is flatly contradicted by its climax. This is a pitiable sort of confession for a man to make ! What was I todo? I could not rewrite the whole in order to give it a philosophic unity.
