Cara Soror:

 

Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.

 

I was just beginning to get nervous and write to you frantically, when your letter of November 4th arrived.

     

You ought not to misunderstand me, because I have been simply using a magical formula with which you yourself are very familiar. When you see a thing that has to be done, you do it without counting the cost. Naturally, you get saddled with a new trouble, but you deal with that in the same way, and so things continue until their consummation.

     

It is a good formula. It leads to more trouble than any other; and that is why it is the only one worthy to be followed by noble spirits.

 

Love is the law, love under will.

 

Yours fraternally,
