Correspondence from Martha Küntzel to Aleister Crowley
Leipzig
March 15th [19]29
Dear and revered Great Brother, beloved Master,—
93
What a terrific blow out of the blue! Yu have to leave France, the country so dear to your heart, never to see it again! And to lose those who were helping you in your work. And you are ill. But this illness, on the other hand, gave you the short respite and the possibility of arranging things before your departure.
I find it very hard to write this letter, for the help we can give is so minute that it won't lower the scales, what is the good of the deepest sympathy and love, if it cannot remove material difficulties.
I am trying to find a way out of all this dilemma. May the Gods help!
But whose work is all this mean and treacherous attack? It looks as if all the black magicians of the world had combined their efforts to hinder and annihilate you. I must say that but for the Book of the Law one could lose all hope for your success. As it is, I think it is the next step forward or rather a jump across a gulf.
All our love and sympathy is with you. In deepest reverence we look forward to the hour of victory!
93 93/93
Ever your grateful little sister
I. W. E.
