Opus[1] XLVI

 

 

1.56 a.m. Weather colder—a warm May night in England. This suggests money through polemical speeches.

     

As XLIII in all respects.

     

Object: Business success tomorrow morning, i.e. at 10 a.m. when I have an appointment with Brother Rooney's friend.

     

The Operation was magnificent in all respects, the orgasm intense, the Will steady, and balanced, the Elixir copious and of fine vintage.

     


 

Result: This worked wonderfully well. Though the matter I was thinking of failed—or has seemed to fail so far—I got three other business successes quite unexpectedly. (The matter failed because it was of such a nature that it could not succeed. The man had no money.)
