Aleister Crowley Diary Entry Tuesday, 27 January 1942

7 1/4 (2)[Heroin].
9 (3)[Heroin].
9 3/4 (4)[Heroin]. Don’t quite know why I took this: assuagement of frustration of some kind, I think. Feel XOP both before and after.

12 3/4 Beadle [Charles Beadle] rather shocking (5)[Heroin].
Big lunch—venison & chocolate Bavarois.
Weather frightful: NE blizzard.
Charles Beadle Oddy’s [restaurant] 12 o’c. Dirtier and more revolting than ever. An actual visible aura of grime, grey and cold.
4 1/2 Liversedge here (6)[Heroin] after long nap.
F.H. [Frieda Harris] brought Moura Stewart. Rather like Jane Cheron: 20 years ago how I should have gone crazy! Hectic foursome. Very tired.
