Care Frater,

 

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

 

The Word of the Equinox is SUHAL*

 

The Oracle of the Equinox is AL I 37 reward

 

The Omen of the Equinox is 42

 

Love is the law, love under will.

 

Yours fraternally,

[handwritten by Crowley:]

"* means a Black Lion, but is also a god or angel of generation"

 

P.S. May 1. This is what comes of having no adequate help, and eyes that work more by faith than by light. Letters yet mislaid: I can never tell whether I've done a thing or not; I can't find things; I'm the "He" in a game of Blind Man's Bluff.

     

I hear that you may be coming over here this summer: the Gods grant it! Unless I do get help I'm due for a nervous breakdown. Well, I shall go out now and post this with my own hand. Forgive my misunderstandings and omissions.

 

Love!

 

666.
