Aleister Crowley Diary Entry Rex de Arte Regia Tuesday, 18 September 1917
Opus[1] XXXIX
11.20 p.m.
As XIV [Anna Katherine Miller].
Object: Success to Kennedy's [Leon Engers Kennedy] psychochromes.
Operation: p.v.n.[2] Orgasm as XXXVIII. Elixir very sweet and very strong. Mental concentration, good—I had prepared for it the whole day—but overwhelmed during part of orgasm by the intensity of the latter.
Result: Success only up to a certain point.
1—[Crowley performs a magical sexual operation.] 2—[Per vas nefandum. By the unmentionable vessel, i.e. anal intercourse.]
