Aeon of Truth and Justice

XXX Justice

 

I AM a Fool, O Beloved, and therefore am I One or Nought as the fancy takes me.

     

Now am I come to Justice, so that I may be All or Naught according to the direction of vision.

     

No Breath may stir the Feather of Truth, therefore is Justice ALone in L. Yet the Ox-goad is Motion and the Breath Matter it is be called the Ox which is also A.

     

How foolish are these thoughts, which are but as the Sword in the hand of Justice. They are as unbalanced as the Scales that stir not, being fixed in the grasp of the figure of Law above the Court House of a great City.

     

But Thou hast said: "Love is the law, love under will."

     

And Love is the Will to Change and Change is the Will to Love.

     

Even in the stern outline of the Scales of Justice do I perceive the Instrument of Love, and in the Life Sentence, the Mystery of Imprisonment in Thy Being, O Beloved!
