Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to Wilfred Talbot Smith

Care Frater
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
Thanks for your letters with Ericson's enclosure. It confirms me on the path which I had chosen.
The whole of our success, so far as is humanly possible to see, depends upon the immediate subscriptions of large numbers of "Magick" [Magick in Theory and Practice]. A copy of the prospectus is being sent under separate cover. But I suppose that Germer [Karl Germer] will be in communication with you. There is no objection to your getting an enterprising bookseller to reprint this prospectus and issue it to all his clients. And you can also get advertisements and preliminary puffs. Booksellers get 33 and a third discount.
Love is the law, love under will.
Yours fraternally
666
P.S. If you can't get K's [Kasimira Bass] actual address, get that of the school or convent where Joan [Marion] [Kasimira's daughter] is. We've got to pinch her fat bottom.
