Aleister Crowley Diary Entry Saturday, 25 October 1941
[I Ching hexagram] 31.
Woke 2 1/2 some asthma & severe
pain 1/6
Slept til 8 1/4 woke with less
asthma & hardly any pain 1/6
10 1/4 Not at all urgent—slight
malaise, if that. 1/6
I believe it’s a boil after all: it acts exactly like one.
Slept 12-1 3/4. Pain on waking and
some very slight distress 1/6
No real urgency. Antophlogistine brought by Alice [Alice Florey]: put it on.
4 1/2 Tea.
Feeling abject 5 1/4 took 1/4
6 Morrison turned up, united the two diagnoses: says “boil from puncture abscess.”
Put off Diamond & Sutherland [Maurice A. Sutherland]: I can’t bear any body or any thing.
8 1/2 Deep in one of these pointless panics: breathing v.[ery] bad.
Took M[orphine] & A[tropine].
