Correspondence from Jane Wolfe to Aleister Crowley
[August 1937]
Regina [Regina Kahl] got turned down for a few weeks to see what she could do with her high blood pressure. I thought I would be decapitated for the opposite reason, but after I skipped rapidly and blithely on one foot for 30 counts, I kind of surprised them and came off with my standard flying. In the past 2 weeks Regina dropped 50 counts—she was 240/185—and now has till 1st October to drop to 150, the dead line in the school system.
But thank heaven, there is now a feeling of free flowing and right flowing, which I accept gladly without question. Certainly I no longer sweat blood over poor old Jane's redemption. And that must be, a relief to the world at large, and in particular. Not that I don't think I'm still some punkins! Only, that I have ceased to think of the divine appointment to some stunning and stunting job which would make 'em speak in whispers—if you know what I mean."
