9Th April 1904 - The Day Ov HaditI am the flame that burns in every heart ov man, and in the core ov every starI am Life, and the giver ov Life: the knowledge ov me is the knowledge ov death Remember all ye that existence is pure joy; that all the sorrows are but as shadows; they pass and are done; but there is that which remains Compassion is the vice ov kings: stamp down the wretched & the weak: this is the law ov the strong: this is our law and the joy ov the world I am the secret Serpent coiled about to spring: in my coiling there is joy If I lift up my head, I & my Nuit are one If I drop down mine head, and shoot forth venom Then is rapture ov the earth, and I & the earth are one. |
