CHAPTER 118
THE WASTING OF THE EYES THROUGH WISTFUL LONGING
1171. Why do my Eyes complain to me to-day ? This inconsolable grief hath come even upon me only through their showing to me my beloved.
1172. How is it that the Eyes that looked rashly on the beloved that day grieve to-day, instead of bearing patiently the consequences of their own folly ?
1173. They looked on him straightway of their own free will that day, and to-day they weep of themselves: how they make themselves ridiculous !
1174. After bequeathing to me the incurable grief that consumeth me, my Eyes have now dried up, having exhausted their store of tears.
1175. My Eyes which have brought on me this anguish vaster than the ocean, now pine away with grief and cannot even lay themselves to sleep.
​1176. Oh, it is a sweet revenge to me that the Eyes that caused me this sorrow are victims themselves to the self-same anguish!
1177. Beshrew the eyes that hung upon his form on that day with a passionate, greedy, all-absorbing love ! May they dry up to their very roots with pining and repining !
1178. Verily there be those who love without being loved! For here are my eyes which know no repose for not seeing him.
1179. My Eyes sleep not when he is away, neither sleep they when he is returned: either way it is their lot to suffer unceasing pain.
1180. When people's eyes themselves are tell-tale drums, even as my own, it is not hard for strangers to read the secret they seek to conceal.

CHAPTER 12
UPRIGHTNESS OF HEART
111. The just and the fair that giveth each man his due whether he is friend or foe, that is the good : nought else.
112. The prosperity of the just groweth not less : it endureth even unto their remotest posterity.
113. Though nought but profit come of it, touch not the wealth that cometh by deviating from the right.
114. The righteous and the unrighteous are known by their offspring.
115. Evil and good come unto all : but an upright heart is the glory of the wise.
​116. When thy heart swerveth from the right and turneth unto evil, know that thy destruction is near at hand.
117. The world looketh not down on the poverty of the upright and virtuous man.
118. Behold the weighing beam, for it is straight in itself and weigheth justly : the glory of the wise is to be like unto it and to incline neither to this side nor to that.
119. Behold the man who swerveth not at all from the right in his own mind : the upright speech of his lips is a judgment.
120. Behold the business man that looketh after the interests of others as his own : his business will expand.

CHAPTER 122
IN PRAISE OF THE DREAM-STATE
SHE
1211. What honours shall I do to the Dream which hath brought me a message from the beloved ?
1212. If only I could persuade my eyes to sleep, I would fly to my beloved in my dream, and tell him the story of how I manage yet to hold on to life.
1213. If I am able to support life yet it is only because I see him in dreams who showeth not his face in waking hours.
1214. Dream giveth me all the joys of love: for it bringeth back to me my beloved who refuseth to pity me in my waking state.
1215. The joys of the dream last as long as the beloved appeareth in it : and what more can be said of the waking state?
​1216. Oh that there were no waking state ! For then my dream would never be cut short and my beloved would never depart from me.
1217. The cruel one who pitieth me not while I am awake, why doth he haunt me in my dreams ?
1218. He embraceth me while I am asleep and rusheth into my heart as soon as I open my eyes.
1219. They reproach my beloved for that he doth not meet me to their knowledge: but then they see him not in dreams.
1220. These village folk say that he hath parted from me : is it that they see him not in dreams?
* ↑ Note the sudden change of mood.
* ↑ i. e. I dream that he embraces me.

CHAPTER 121
SIGHING FOR THE ABSENT ONE
HE
1201. Even in the recollection love is sweet with endless delights : love is therefore sweeter than wine.
1202. The moment I recall the image of my loved one to my mind, that very moment all my sorrow is vanquished : ah, love is dear in all its aspects !
SHE
1203. I was about to sneeze, but the fit passed away : is it that he was about to think of me but did not ?
1204. Have I at all a place in his heart ? As for him, there is never a doubt but he abideth in mine.
1205. He excludeth me jealously from his heart : is he not ashamed then to show himself ceaselessly in mine ?
​1206. It is but the recollection of our union that keepeth me alive yet : what else of life is there in me ?
1207. Even with my memory full of him, my heart burneth within me : what then will be my case if I forget him ?
1208. How often soever I recall my beloved to my mind he will not be wroth with me : so much is the favour that my beloved bestoweth upon me !
1209. When my heart thinketh on his cruelty who once said, We are not two but only one life and soul, verily my life ebbeth away.
1210. O Moon ! set not in the horizon, I pray thee, till my eyes look again upon him who, abiding still within my heart, hath yet parted from me.
* ↑ Sneezing is believed to indicate that a friend or relative is thinking of the one who sneezes.
* ↑ The maid is to be supposed to have said, "As it is remembrance that causes thee all this sorrow, why dost thou not try to forget thy beloved for some time?" The text is to taken as the reply of the mistress to this supposed address.

CHAPTER 117
BEWAILING THE PANGS OF SEPARATION AND PINING AWAY
SHE
1161. I smother my grief within me, but behold ! it only welleth up more and more even as the water of the spring to those who are draining it.
1162. To conceal my grief is now beyond me : but as to disclosing it, I should feel it a shame to speak of it even to him that caused it.
1163. At the two ends of the pole which is my life, my two loads of passion and and delicacy hang heavy; and this suffering body breaketh under their weight.
1164. There is a very sea before me in my passion for my beloved: but a trusty bark to cross it there is none for me.
1165. What will they not do when they are enemies, those who suffer one to pine away when they are friends ?
​1166. Vast as the sea is the joy that love yieldeth: but when it taketh to burning, the pangs it causeth are deeper far.
1167. I swim in the stormy sea of love, but I spy not any shore thereto : even in the dead of night I am all alone and there is none to console me.
1168. Night in her mercy rocketh all life to sleep : and yet she hath none to help her through but me.
1169. The Night that passeth too slowly for me to-day is crueller in its cruelty than the cruel one himself.
1170. If my eyes can run, even as my heart runneth, to where he is, they need not now be swimming in a sea of tears.
* ↑ Whenever men have a heavy burden to carry, they divide it into two equal bundles and attach each one of them to one end of a longish pole which is then lifted and carried on the shoulder by the middle.
* ↑ All else but me are asleep: by being awake I bear Night company and help her to go on with her work.

CHAPTER 119
BEWAIL ING THE PALLOR OF PINING LOVE
SHE
1181. It is I myself that consented to the parting of my beloved : to whom shall I complain now of my pallor ?
1182. Pallor is proud of being his child, and creeping all over my frame rideth on me.
1183. My comeliness and my modesty he hath taken away, giving in exchange nought but the pangs of the heart and my pallid hue.
1184. In my heart I think nought but his thoughts, with my tongue I speak nought but his praises: and yet, witchcraft! this pallor hath overspread my frame.
1185. That day too he went but there, and paleness sought me out here !
​1186. Even as darkness lieth in wait for the light to be put out, even so doth Pallor lie in wait for my separation from my lord.
1187. I lay in his embrace : I then left him for a while, and behold, pallor swallowed me up, as it were !
1188. There are people to reproach me saying, Behold she hath become sallow and pale : but there is none to reproach him for abandoning me !
1189. Acquit him forsooth, my maid, of all harmful intent : the death-like pallor of my body is nothing to thee.
1190. It is good for me even to be twitted with the sallowness of my skin, if only they accuse not my beloved of cruelty.
* ↑ The maid is to be supposed to have tried to console the mistress saying. "Thy beloved is not gone far away: be calm, be will return soon." The text is to be taken an the reply of the mistress to this supposed address.
* ↑ Note the sudden change of mood.

CHAPTER 120
ANGUISH OF HEART THAT THE HUSBAND FEELETH NOT AS ONESELF
SHE
1191. They alone eat the stoneless all-sweet fruit of love who are beloved of those whom they hold dear.
1192. What the rain is to all the world, that is the tenderness of the beloved to her that loveth.
1193. They alone can pride themselves on their happiness who are loved in return by those whom they love.
1194. What if they are loved by others? If women receive not the affection of their beloved they know no happiness on earth.
1195. How can I hope for any favour from my beloved if he loveth me not even as I love him ?
​1196. Even as the burthen on the carrying pole, love is pleasant only when it is on both sides: but it is a galling load when it is only on one side.
1197. The God of Love assaileth only me: is it because he hath no eyes for my sorrows and sufferings ?
1198. None in the world are so hard-hearted as women who continue to live on even when they receive no kind messages from their beloved.
1199. Even if the beloved is unkind to us, any message that cometh from him is sweet to the ear.
1200. Bless thee, my Heart! Thou wouldst tell thy grief to one who loveth thee not : thou mayest as well try to dry up the sea.
# The Leaving of Liverpool

* related portals: Song lyrics.
* sister projects: Wikipedia article.
A traditional folk song about leaving Liverpool, England.
Farewell to Prince's Landing Stage
River Mersey, fare thee well I am bound for California, A place I know right well
Chorus: So fare thee well, my own true love For when I return, united we will be It's not the leaving of Liverpool that grieves me But my darling when I think of thee
I'm bound off for California By the way of stormy Cape Horn And I'm bound to write you a letter, love When I am homeward bound
I have signed on a Yankee clipper ship Davy Crockett is her name And Burgess is the Captain of her And they that say she's a floating shame
I have shipped with Burgess once before And I think I know him well If a man's a sailor, he can get along If not, then he's sure in Hell
Farewell to lower Frederick Street Anson Terrace and Park Lane For I think it will be a long, long time Before I see you again
Oh the sun is on the harbour, love And I wish I could remain For I know it will be a long, long time Till I see you again

PRELIMINARY INVOCATION.
Thee I invoke, the Bornless one. Thee that didst create the Earth and the Heavens: Thee that didst create the Night and the Day. Thee that didst create the Darkness and the Light. Thou art Osorronophris: Whom no man has seen at any time. Thou art Jäbas Thou art Jäpôs: Thou hast distinguished between the Just and the Unjust. Thou didst make the Female and the Male. Thou didst produce the Seed and the Fruit. Thou didst form Men to love one another, and to hate one another.
I am Mosheh Thy Prophet, unto Whom Thou didst commit Thy Mysteries, the Ceremonies of Ishrael: Thou didst produce the moist and the, dry, and that which nourisheth all created Life.
Hear Thou Me, for I am the Angel of Paphrô Osorronophris: this is Thy True Name, handed down to the Prophets of Ishrael.
Hear Me: Ar: Thiao: Rheibet: Atheleberseth: A: Blatha: Abeu: Ebeu: Phi: Thitasoe: Ib: Thiao.

# The Lesson (Peach)

Not every day can wear the charm Of sunbeam's smile and cheery air, Nor every life know naught of harm Or sorrow's cross of care.
But every day that comes with rain Means brighter sunny days to be; And every life with hours of pain Joy's happier hours will see,
This truth the years would have us learn; By sorrow, joy is sweeter made; Where fairest roses glow and burn, The rain's soft lips were laid!

# The Lesson (Kipling, 1881)

We two learned the lesson together, The oldest of all, yet so new To myself, and I'm wondering whether It was utterly novel to you?
The pages—you seemed to have known them, The pictures that changed 'neath our eyes; Alas! by what hand were you shown them, That I find you so womanly wise?
Is it strange that my hand on your shoulder In the dusk of the day should be placed? Did you say to yourself, "Were he older His arm had encircled my waist?"
If it be so, so be it, fair teacher; I sit at your feet and am wise, For each page of the book is a feature, And the light of the reading, your eyes.
We have met, and the meeting is over; We must part, and the parting is now; We have played out the game—I, boy-lover, In earnest, and you, dearest, how?

# The Lesser Key of Solomon/Preface

PREFACE
This translation of the FIRST BOOK of the "Lemegeton" which is now for the first time made accessible to students of TALISMANIC MAGIC was done, after careful collation and edition, from numerous Ancient Manuscripts in Hebrew, Latin, and French, by G. H. Fra. D.D.C.F., by the order of the Secret Chief of the Rosicrucian Order. 1 The G. H. Fra., having succumbed unhappily to the assaults of the Four Great Princes (acting notably under Martial influences), it seemed expedient that the work should be brought to its conclusion by another hand. The investigation of a competent Skryer into the house of our unhappy Fra., confirmed this divination; neither our Fra. nor his Hermetic Mul. were there seen; but only the terrible shapes of the evil Adepts S.V.A. 2 and H., whose original bodies having
been sequestered by Justice, were no longer of use to them. On this we stayed no longer Our Hand; but withdrawing Ourselves, and consulting the Rota, and the Books M. and Q. did decide to ask Mr. Aleister Crowley, a poet, and skilled student of Magical Lore, and an expert Kabbalist, to complete openly that which had been begun in secret. 1 This is that which is written: "His Bishoprick let another take." And again: "Oculi Tetragammaton." This is also that which is said: "Nomen Secundum refertur ad Gebhurah; qui est Rex Bittul atque Corruptio Achurajim Patris et Matris hoc indigitatur."
And so saying we wish you well.
Ex Deo Nascimur. In Jesu Morimur. Per S.S. Reviviscimus.
Given forth from our Mountain of A.,
this day of C.C. 1903 A. D.
