Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to J.F.C. Fuller

Mon cher Fuller,

 

As an ardent admirer of Professor Lodge, the Laneys, and the Thinking Horse, I am compelled to vote for the "Star in the West" as we both thought of it independently. Also there is a serious scriptural tang, which is good. The Wine of Iacchus as you say is Chap VI now VII. Caps I-IV are the -hieroglyph.

     

The womb of Eclidua is only good because it suggests the Sphinx—"The Sphinx of the West" would do. So would "Thelema." But I think the Star is best.

     

I hope to send you the Crown and Bil[illegible] sketch for approval to-morrow.

     

I have sent your criticism of Man of Kerioth to the author!

     

As to Osborne, I would have to come for a couple of nights. Can't you find me a hole or a nest or must I be like the other Son of Man?

     

I want to pass a day B'mouth going back.

     

If you can get me anything, even a boot-cupboard or a share in a nurse's bed, let me know at once. My days are dreadfully full now.

     

I am moving to bacherlorhood in Jermyn Street St, [D.V.] on 25th, I guess.

 

Yours

 

a.c.
