Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to Charles Stansfeld Jones
5/2/16.
Care Frater,
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
Thanks for VII Ms., which I return. Also rituals, which I keep. I am sorry Bro. Dawson [Benjamin Dawson] is going to feed the fiends, but duty first—not safety first, the beautiful American motto, Yellow dogs!
Blair is (I think) what you thought the cipher in 333 was.
Do not be discouraged about the secret; it's plain enough. You are puzzled because of your knowledge; you think you know how it's plainly stated in two or three places. See how economical I am, even in the small matter of writing paper. I am very glad to lend Bro. Dawson to the secular arm, but I hope he will come back safe and sound, and do better work for us than ever. In fact, he may be more useful with a V.[ictoria] C.[ross]. Please try to make your Letters less disconnected. Don't change the subject without warning.
Love is the Law, Love under Will.
Yours in the Bonds of the Order.
[eleven-fold Cross] Baphomet X° O.T.O
