Aleister Crowley Diary Entry Wednesday, 17 February 1943
[I Ching hexagram] 33. AIR/VIRGO.
Got pictures from G&S [Green & Stone]—after 1 year 11 months! 19 of them: some very much beloved. Stuck them up all round as best I could.
Harold & Edward [Edward Bryant] both too broke to buy "Fun" [The Fun of the Fair] [I Ching hexagram] 33 Thun.
6 Harold here: read “The Saviour”. Admired it immensely; of course, it is the apex of the uncommerical. He thought the pied Piper was one of the Ingoldsby legends, & that Gordon Craig was the son of Marie Tempest!! This brightened my evening; very timely.
Edward rang; bored me for 1/2 hr with disconnected drivel. Only point: says the “Queen’s necklace” had 666 stones.
