Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Monday, 27 May 1901

 

 

Went down town—typist refused to do Orpheus etc  illegible.

     

"Affaire" excels itself. A wretched morning, a happy afternoon, a supreme evening. People won't believe they are kidnapped on bluff—one must prove it. Idea was—she [Mary Rogers] (partly undressed in my room) to be told her room was locked by a boy in my pay. Perhaps I didn't push things far enough—I'm so damnably tender-hearted. She said I love you at last.

     

But this is pure love.
