RAPID REVIEWS.

 

 

Ye Sword of Song, by Aleister Crowley (Society for the Propagation of Religious Truth, Benares), is appropriately dedicated to fools. The plan of the poem is described as "Conspuez Dieu." It is a jumble of cheap profanity, with clever handling of metre and rhyme. Christianity will survive—but the author's reputation may not be so fortunate.
