Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to Gerald Hamilton
Aston Clinton Bucks
May 6 [1944]
Dear Ham,
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
Your letter to the Unhappy Dispatch reassured me as to your whereabouts—you not having condescended for so long to beam upon me.
The Duke St—King St bomb not only damaged 93 [93 Jermyn St], but caused diversion of traffic through Jermyn St. At times one had to wait 5 minutes or more to cross! Racket quite insupportable, work totally impossible; So I drifted out here for awhile.
Being close to Aylesbury, they say that my object is to go on with my work on the Yi King.
(This is written in the usual [illegible], but you should find out why they say it; the jest is really rather subtle and charming.)
I hope all is well with you, and that you have a quid to spare to square.
Love is the law, love under will.
Yours,
A.C.
