Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to Nancy Cunard
Aston Clinton, Bucks.
Aug 18 [1944]
My own adorable Nancy,
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
How too angelic a visit! But let it not be so "far between" next time!
I cannot remember so few hours so packed with so much rapture.
Now to business.
Adamson. I will pay 10/ extra over the £10.10.0 for every week he takes off the 3 months. (E.g. if I get 'em in 2 months, I pay £19.10.0.) For linings, can he find me a piece of brocade sort of stuff for a Charvet dressing-gown, perhaps 2nd hand to save coupons—I've got plenty, but why waste them? I enclose sample of cloth so he can match. If he fail to show real enthusiasm, I'll try [illegible] but only on the exact copy basis; I don't trust his cutter.
Dr Halliday. Monday or Wednesday best.
I hope you got to Oxford easily and safely. Shall be glad to have detailed letter.
I can't write a proper letter; this cold in the head is bothering me, and I'm trying to make up for the "lost time"—in Paradise!
Love is the law, love under will.
Yours,
Aleister.
