Aleister Crowley Diary Entry Saturday, 14 April 1906
A\[1] mediocre.
The Op∴[eration] of Abramelin being due to commence on Easter Sunday, methinks it would be well to make a certain profound conjuration of A∴ on that day with a view to acquiring a proper knowledge of the G[reat] R[etirement]. The A∴ should be definitely invoked for this purpose with all possible ceremony. Is it not written "Unto whosoever shall draw nigh unto Me will I draw nigh"? And, as I have proved, the help of is A∴ already given as if the O∴ were successfully brought to an end. Only can this right be forfeited by slackness toward the O∴. from this then, O Holy Exhalted One, preserve me!
1—This indicates the Invocation of Augoeides.
