Aleister Crowley Diary Entry Sunday, 8 March 1942
[I Ching hexagram] Mang—4. “Education”—
Hamilton [Gerald Hamilton] in re AL political programme.
The horse cantered, or rather ambled in, to vet ham’s hock. We has a pleasant chat, and he rescued me from the risk and discomfort of continuing the Abstinence exp[erimen]t in its extreme form.
This led to trouble. The fact was spotted by the bonnie briar bush in less than 3 weeks, and the pot of roses gave forth its goodly aroma. Achtung!
Day comfortable; feel quite a new
man. Esp since
Temp: 98.6-99.
Long talk, or rather lecture to Ham. [Gerald Hamilton] & MAS [Maurice A. Sutherland] on proofs of AL.
Chess MAS. Played two brilliant games, then it got skittly.
