My dear Louis:

 

So glad to get your note of the 5th with the return Shakespeare proofs and the Contes Macabres which I think I can possible use for the November number [of The International]. The only difficulty seems to be that my devotion to one Trinity causes me to regard the local imitation as blasphemy; and I am seriously thinking of getting out. It is no good working if one has nothing to work for.

     

Your mention of Sorrento is in exceedingly bad taste. It is like the conduct of the Judge of all the World in taunting Dives with the vision of Lazarus.

 

Yours ever,

 

Aleister Crowley
