Aleister Crowley Diary Entry Rex de Arte Regia Tuesday, 23 November 1915
OPUS[1] CXXVI
[EXTRACT]
[Around 11:30 p.m.]
[Assistant: Jeanne Foster.]
[Object:] Semper eadem!—ever the same.
This does not appear to have worked well. Vide infra!!!
[Later:] The three previous operations had been unsuccessful, though some effect was evident. The return current may have hit us. Soror H. [Jeanne Foster] has been very ill ever since leaving Buffalo, and I the day after I arrived in Chicago. We are still far from well. These operations may be all wrong; but we had better go on if it kills us both. Mr. . . . . [Matlack Foster] has become very violent and aggressive.
1—[Crowley performs a magical sexual operation.]
