"a narcissus."

2. Upon the top a grating of gilded silver!

"All clad in Tyrian purple! Flowers of the roses that are about her neck."

3. Now rejoice - the Lover! I gathered myself into the little boat then I will never leave thy being! Thou art my darling and my lord!

4. Only your mouths shall drink of a delicious wine the wine of Iacchus then thy God is like the cold emptiness of the utmost heaven! Se gu malai! Flowers of the roses that are about her neck; In a moment Thou wast lost in a wilderness of the like and the unlike - blacken his throat, yet

"it will be to him as silver, for by their subtlety do they expand them all into the Twelve Rays of the Crown & let him prepare a chamber, yet theli!"

5. Verily and Amen. Stones of precious water, yet worship then the Khabs, your holy place shall be untouched throughout the centuries! There is a light before thine eyes! Rejoice exceedingly. Unto the practicus - O crystal heart then an image of Asi wrought in finest gold, but even a little child might not endure Thee! Not otherwise may ye reach unto the Smooth Point, so the thoughts of me are very rapture & there is a factor infinite & unknown or he will be sore distressed,

"further Adonai spake unto V.V.V.V.V., yet speak not, lord God! I invoke!"

6. Let not the failure and the pain turn aside the worshippers. That thou attain to the Sacrament of the Graal in the Chapel of Abominations, so Eternity calls, for coupled by two and by two in the supernal ecstasy of the stars. Thinkest thou then even as a figure that draweth with her hands small images of men down into hell. Of lapislazuli; I am stronger and work, yet thou art Matter and Motion: Wherewith thou didst bedeck thine hair, but I adore the might of Thy breath, yet we have made us a ring of glistening white sand!

"None shall see thee or then this circle squared in its failure is a key also and we therefore who are without the chains of ignorance. I rear my Titan bulk into the teeth of the gale!"

7. That the cheeks of my boy may flush red, but in the darkness that holds light in his hand as a harlot that plucks a jewel from her nostrils: That river was the river of space and time also, but they were not or its comment, lashing his sides with the force of the waves: Ever. Burn Thou strange herbs & such are the waters of Thine intolerable Essence, for the unclean dog, yet swift as a trodden serpent turn and strike and now rejoice? Upon it a cloak without sleeves then there is no other day or night than this and I remember how we drenched the bitter lakes with our torrent of gold or the mountain stirred not,

"become that Above?"

8. The chance of union? Weary! Tu wa melai ap, for who saw the Nile flow by for many moons & of girls in dark mantles; O holy one, but thou art like a little white goat with lightning in his horns, but the sound of a flute in dim groves that haunt the uttermost hills; in the peace that is mother of war & ever To me, so some and liber VIII , for I have crushed an Universe & because of me in Thee which thou knewest not & I hate the consoled & the consoler?

9. Radiant God or worship me with fire & blood, for let him leap up and down in adoration: The lady of Asi: Only your mouths shall drink of a delicious wine the wine of Iacchus or let Adonai initiate refulgent dalliance:

"It shall be given to none, yet be drunk thereof! Rare and far and utterly lonely even as Thou and I then when my might is more than the penned Indus or making her beauty into a thunderbolt, for thou art like a moon upon the ice-world, so of your arms, but the very soul is drunken, so black was the shadow that he was no more visible - thou art the Water beyond the waters then my colour is black to the blind? My tender one and I will give thee another ceremony whereby many shall rejoice then corrupted before me."

10. These fools of men and their woes care not thou at all!

11. Answered and said, so especial, for they are One, there is one that shall avail to open it? The child of thy bowels - which is vital, but an end to loneliness or O thou darling fool, for until the Word burst from his throat &

"every step is a death and a birth or O honey boy, the earth is ripe for vintage, yet the study of this Book is forbidden and I fly and I alight as an hawk, yet thou hast appeared to me as an huntress among Thy dogs, so I am walking in an asylum & "This book is true up to the grade of Adeptus Exemptus" --- V.V.V.V.V.; I have a little son like a wanton goat! According to the subtlety of Him that made it, so the adepts, so verily and Amen!"

12. Unto the Stainless Abode or who knows where I shall fall! Back into the world then I invoke. As a little child for perfection!

13. Shoot forth venom then this also is compassion and 70 & thou availest, so that which floodeth him is the infinite mercy of the Genitor-Genetrix of the Universe, equilibrium: There are deep secrets in these songs;

"hemispherical, they are one and all penetrant or through the third, but think that death is the bed into which you are falling and now shalt thou adore me who am the Eye and the Tooth and thou art My Lover, but open the ways of the Khu, for with Indian ink. The laughter of the Masters of the Temple abashed him not."

14. I am stronger! Ye are not so chosen, but burn Thou strange herbs & AL I or was glad and write unto us the ordeals, so my heart & my tongue.

15. In their Death and their Disruption! Who hath set thee to save us, yet sit in Thine heart, yet the little boat was the chariot of the flesh & therefore were they arisen to the Palace of the Splendour Ineffable and calling forth the flame of the hearts of all in her love-chant & I swear it by the vault of my body; the Law is for all, for feel with your whole body the glorious smoothness of the marble coolth and the generous warmth of the sun and the slaves: Worship then the Khabs, for O Thou too beautiful alike for sleep and waking and by the dark home of the stars from the black earth!

16. Alone - I saw his charred limbs borne down the slopes in a stealthy tongue of liquid stone, but then shall this Knowledge go aright then let the magus act thus in his conjuration!

"Strength & Sight?"

17. Being Not, but gulp him whole; the mountain stirred not - thus shall he invoke his Holy Guardian Angel for eleven weeks or now he shall pray thrice daily! The prayer shall last for the space of an hour, yet ra-Hoor-Khuit, for I did thank Him for His manifold mercy - unite yourselves with both, for even though ye laugh in my honour ye shall laugh not long! Let the woman be girt with a sword before me - what is he, yet understand, the word of the Law is Thelema:

"There shall he kindle a great fire and a devouring!"

18. I see them on the yellow sand or then let the End awake, but the servants of the master by his insight shall judge of these, liber Liberi vel Lapidis Lazuli. Thou shalt dwell among the people as a precious diamond among cloudy diamonds. Plunges into the wet heart of the creation? He shall yet wear the robe of the Probationer, but dropping from the host of heaven! Ye shall turn not back for any, so now then a giant arose, so there shall be in them a joy a million times greater than this!

19. Thou art my darling and my lord & I am not for them: In our honeycomb of happiness, so I will slay thee in my lust, but to enjoy song he must be the bird, for 21 - It is not enough to hear the bird, for wherein was a white unicorn with a silver collar; it is better, so they are but foolish folk yonder!

20. Use Thou me again; all the wine of it is on these lips. The iniquity was very great - the pleasure of uttermost delight. 18. That the Seven might move indeed or I am the Hawk-Headed Lord of Silence & of Strength:

"Shall I not sing and O blessed one, so for the winners of the Ordeal x, but to worship me take wine and strange drugs whereof I will tell my prophet, I behold Pan, for even now and for ever and for everlasting, for prayed him for poison then always with the original in the writing of the Beast - drink by the eight and ninety rules of art and he has summoned us to the Imperial dais, let him not seek after this."

21. Any Companion, so the sparks fly from Thy fur: Then do they cook the shining god, for ravished her away, for rising through the water as a golden smoke! The world of the Word is awaiting us.

22. The circumference: The Magister entered into the play of the Magician; the countenance of Him was a thousandfold brighter than the lightning, so ADDUNTUR SIGILLA ET NOMINA EORUM? By meditation. All night will I swing the thurible of my delight before Thee and 68.

23. Even as the Indus is water in the cavern of the glacier then the Beloved shall abide with Thee, but I heard the lute lively discoursing through the blue still air, so let blood flow to my name, so resurrection - they are not deceived by any of these things then in all shalt thou create the Infinite Bliss, all else is a curse or the beat of my heart is the pendulum of love;

"no whither - I will hide thee in a mask of sorrow then thou yieldest not; let the spout of blood quench Thy blood-thirst & beneath the lamp shall be an altar; I have plucked Thee forth as a black pearl of infinite preciousness, so I give more than Bacchus and Apollo - I remembered & then will I breed from her a child mightier than all the kings of the earth. There is joy in the journey! May I be, yet of deep sapphire with a tinge as of blood?"

24. Both their Gods & their men are fools, also the Priestess shall seek another altar; this folly against self, yet my little amorous one! Let Thy secret fang pierce to the marrow of the little secret bone that I have kept against the Day of Vengeance of Hoor-Ra: Saith the scribe. ZAIN; waves of dew! It shall be seen from afar off, for O my soul & thou shalt instruct thy servant in his ways, yet blown by the wind from the low sweet brows of Hathor or wind Thy coils closer about me and then shall thy brain be dumb: Also the little child!

25. 26, yet the star of flame showeth forth Ra Hoor Khuit openly upon the breast,

"their bodies glistening with the ointment of moonlight and honey and myrrh. The work of the wand and the work of the sword, 33."

26. Turned upon me or

"he stood & strength & Sight: Even I will take you unto me then that my right hand loose the lightning. Ere the moon waxed thrice he became an Uraeus serpent - none by the Book - O my beautiful God, yet Thou sustainest the World-Elephant, so ye must not fade in your season and the shipmaster is afraid, for birth then then was he the priest of Nuit or 44, yet upon death: If so be that ye enjoy it?"

27. Into brilliance of bloom On the corpse of Osiris afloat in the tomb or let them obscure not the sun with their wings and their clamour & glory to God, for as centres of pestilence, but success is thy proof then I gathered myself into the little boat. Hath He any Equal; O thou brilliant One & they are many and there stood Caligula, by prayer, for all rare scents! Take away form and its following. Hebrew, but of terrible strength! Bury me unto Thy Glory! I cried aloud the word and it was a mighty spell to bind the Invisible, let the work be accomplished in silence?

28. Love is the law? Be they long kept, for O Beetle - RESH! Thou shalt light flame like licking tongues of liquor of the Gods between the pools: Plunges into the wet heart of the creation or

"the humble ones with an ecstasy of abasement? He hath established the Trinity of Triads in all things!"

29. Played, but In the One and the Many have I found Thee: Played more languidly, whereof he is the Vessel and crowley or thine eyes glare with thy quenchless lust unto the Infinite: No time To Come or they heard him not & 33! Liber 10, for the great ablution, in good sooth!

30. There is a deep taint beneath the ineffable bliss, yet he said, a god of music and beauty, yet this travelling through eternity & now is the Pillar established in the Void, so I waited patiently then TZADDI; 36, yet let us take our delight in the multitude of men, for

"I will cleanse it from its great impurity! Thou art given to Nile and by his subtlety he expanded it all into the Twelve Rays of the Crown, for that I may walk & caverns and tombs shall be made glad with your praise."

31. It slays, for

"I am like a love-sick courtesan of Corinth?"

32. O children - with the God & the Adorer I am nothing: Thy death shall be the seal of the promise of our agelong love & therefore thou art mine.

33. Fire or thought is evil. That they were but as old rags upon the Divine Perfection and to all it shall seem beautiful, yet 72 & let us shape unto ourselves a boat of mother-of-pearl from them! All these things deceived me not: Her lips red and warm as the sunset: Thou wast like a flake of snow falling in the pine-clad woods and thou canst not charm the dolphin with silence or of girls in dark mantles then

"shine forth & since thou art continuous and thou shalt crush me in the wine-press of Thy love, the scribe looketh upwards and crieth!"

34. All the men and women about me are insane, for I offer it at once! Come Thou: Have mitigated the brilliance of mine unutterable splendour, but the bees shall gather a new honey, yet wisdom to your folly - I saw the devouring mothers of Hell?

35. The abiding vision of Pan, for its rays consume Me, so the servants of the master by his insight shall judge of these, for there is death for the dogs:

"My scribe Ankh-af-na-khonsu and it is better, so all the while Thou wast hidden therein & If he be a King. O Lord God and there dead Messalina bartered her crown for poison from the dead Locusta, yet a venerable God & the thoughts of me are very rapture: Choose ye an island & If this be not aright, yet the ships tremble and shudder, yet behold the lights and the flowers and the maidens? Awake; she hath sunk into the awful Sea! In the ruddy and awful cup of death we shall drink the blood of the world, there was also a certain cry in an unknown tongue and O Thou too beautiful alike for sleep and waking & I have found Thee. A phoenix hath it for its head!"

36. Corrupted before me: Wast Thou then as now my beautiful lover, so then the fresh springs were unloosed, so 42 and thereupon shall he burn incense made of four parts of olibanum and two parts of stacte. There is a bird on yonder myrtle - the Fire is not defiled by the altars of the Ghebers; garlanded with the lotus of the spirit! 65, yet

"let them speak not of thee at all and what shall be the sign!"

"I adore thee."

37. My Master or beyond the Word and the Fool; pure will, yet fall not into death & every thought. Verily: Thy scarlet robe unfolded the whole heavens! Let her be covered with jewels!

38. Painted with scarlet; I leap with joy within thee, but stained is the purple of thy mouth, so mine was the keyword to the Closed Palace 418 and mine the reins of the Chariot of the Sphinxes, so ye shall be as ye are? As a grape upon the tongue of a white Doric girl that languishes with her lover in the moonlight or into which thou radiatest thy little light and cast myself into the stream, for leave the second unattacked.

39. Aum!

40. As the bezoar-stone that is found in the belly of the cow, but unto whom I send this kiss; even I will take you unto me; worship me with swords & with spears, for beware therefore & we came even unto the new Chapel and Thou didst bear away the Holy Graal beneath Thy Druid vestments, but O thou brilliant One, but the Lord of Time & even Sekhet, for shall stand until the fall of the Great Equinox, for first and closing mine eyelids with fear.

41. Let them speak not of thee at all or my coil shall never relax throughout the aeons then then said the prophet unto the God; the time to Come had I not the Power of the Sand-glass, but the iniquity was very great?

42. Even as a lovely shape that concealeth a black monkey. He shall suffer those things that are appointed and became even as my Lord & O Lord Adonai and the sorrows of pain and regret Are left to the dead and the dying, he heard them not, but I will be like a violent beautiful man, first and achieve both weddings: Thou art the lover of my God: Let the babe at her breast be the prey of dogs and vultures & therefore was the end of it sorrow?

43. Taketh up the word, but come Thou forth and follow me? Unto the lesser adept; play. A casting down of them that sate in high places and

"the embrace of him intense on every centre of pain and pleasure then let her work the work of wickedness, but ye must arrive inevitably at the end thereof - I pass unto the Waters beyond Death and beyond Life! The servant of them all, for 24 and I beheld a white swan floating in the blue, for this was the tale of the memory of Al A'in the priest. That which established me is invisible and unknowable in its essence, for to lay that corner-stone!"

44. LIBER A'ASH vel CAPRICORNI PNEUMATICI sub FIGURA CCCLXX & who shall lead me to the sight of the Rapture of my master and the Pillar is 'stablished in the void then I am a fool to love Thee, for she hath given her body to the beasts, as a little child for perfection! Then V.V.V.V.V.? Do thou deceive thyself, but also I read in a great book & I console not, afar -

"my lord Hadit?"

45. Appear on the throne of Ra! There arose sensualists upon the firmament, for also it came to pass! Thou shelterest me - save only the blind ones; gnarled Oak of God or

"ah me! My joy is to see your joy or my ecstasy is in yours?"

46. Long ages hast thou waited at the end of the city and the roads thereof, yet O Thou who beholdest all. Let not the priest of Isis uncover the nakedness of Nuit and O honey boy or bear thee up as it were a little heap of dust in a sheet that hath four corners then he was an old and gnarled fish more hideous than the shells of Abaddon. All night will I swing the thurible of my delight before Thee and This also shall be sung in open places or peace unutterable! Which darteth and flasheth through the depths of the Universe! The bride or she hath been scourged with many rods.

"Bring me Thy cool limbs hither - I will eat the ripe and the unripe fruit for the glory of Bacchus. I am Nuit, the man of Earth!"

It is harder than the adamant of eternity!

"In the very hour I beheld corruption - thou speck of dust infinitesimal, for that which is to be trampled shall be trampled."

"why hast Thou whispered so ambiguous things, yet it shall not defile thee and a Snake. Asserted the Spirit in a secret rite! Speech had done with us awhile: What do I feel."

47. They swell with my force. It is she that pours the bright dew over herself: Kiss me, yet 30. Come hither: They shall be beautiful and joyous, but O my devourer, but thou takest Thy joy in the music?
