Aleister Crowley Diary Entry Tuesday, 8 August 1939
[I Ching hexagram] 64.
Started Taro work with Mrs. Ashment. Dictated XX. XIX. XII [for The Book of Thoth].
Appalling weather.
Worse was the lunch chez Ruby [Melville]:
Veal cutlets made (I deem) of Reversed Calf. She even offered cheese in lead paper!!
Forgot most of my duties!
C.F. [Catherine Falconer] had to come up—so I had to go down to dinner.
Felt rotten: retired early.
Greta [Sequeira] came in for pleasant chat. Ataturk [Aleister Ataturk] seems O.K.
